Lets create your first page!

Step 1: Check availability

First of all, we need to check if the page does not already exist, therefore you must search the product name to see if a page already exists. If it does not, then great, follow the next step.



Step 2: Create the page

In the address bar, type the following "http://www.wikidesign.world/index.php?title=How_to_design_the_car&action=edit&redlink=1" - but before you do, remember to replace the text in the link "How_to_design_the..." with your new page name, for example if milk carton then it should look like the following "http://www.wikidesign.world/index.php?title=How_to_design_the_milk_carton&action=edit&redlink=1"

Special characters that may be useful
"_" = space
"%26" = & (use space before and after)



Step 3: Copy the code

Step 1: Copy the following code into a text editor (ideally Notepad++) or directly into your newly created page on edit (Page URL followed by #/editor/0) - if you choose to copy it to your new page, you may continue editing it over time.
