Q: How do I add my page(s) under the Name, Location or Topic categories?

A: When you edit a page, add at the bottom of the page any number of "category" entries (incl. the square brackets):

For example, the following entries will list "Ma Prem Rose" in the "Browse by Name" section of the wiki

[[category:Names|Rose, Ma Prem]]

the "Browse by Location" section under the town of "New York"

[[category:New York|Rose, Ma Prem]]

and the "Browse by Topic" section under "Computers & Internet"

[[category:Computers & Internet|Rose, Ma Prem]]

You may list your page under as many Topics as you see fit, but only under one Location.
General articles (non-user-pages) should only be listed under Topics, unless they refer to a specific Location.


Q: How do I add a new page?

A: first log in to the Wiki with your account. Then:

  • Enter this address into your web browser : http://www.sannyas.org/index.php?title=The Name of my new Page
  • Replace The Name of my new Page" with any page name that fits the topic of the page. You then get another page.
  • Click the tab "Create"
  • Fill in the page text and Preview the page. When you are happy with it, save it.

We don't want "anonymous" users here.
Please introduce yourself once you have an account.
Unused accounts will be deleted after a few weeks.


If you have a center, add your ongoing events on your center page in the wiki and add your current events in the News section of the wiki.

Use the Community Portal to start informal chit chats with friends in your area.
You can use the Community Portal like a sandbox and add new pages with any title you like.


Q: what are the "discussion" tabs/pages for ?

A: they are a space to discuss the page you are looking at, nothing else. every page in the wiki has a discussion/talk page attached to it, incl this help page. they are usually used by several authors to discuss changes to the actual page to avoid "editing wars".
