DECADES OF GLORY
Quick Tips for adding your material here:- Click on any decade to see the years and the events listed under each. (If the event you are interested in has a question mark after it, the page has not yet been created. First click on the question mark to create the page, then click Save at the bottom of that new page.) Once you are on the event page, you can add your items to it. You can do this by clicking Edit above, and then either writing or pasting material directly onto the event page or by creating a new, separate page related to this event (for an illustration, see 1963 and Secular ritual experimentation). If you are creating a new page, click on "Create New Topic" on the left sidebar. See the Step By Step on the sidebar for more help if you need it. Always remember to save your work when you are finished--otherwise, it will disappear!
- If the material you wish to add doesn't fall under one of the existing event titles, you can add a major event listing to any year. To do this, you simply edit this page. Click Edit above, then scroll to the year in which you wish to add the event. Note the double bracket format for the existing events. It's probably easiest to simply copy an existing event title's format and paste it in where you want it. Then change the text within the two sets of brackets to fit your new event. In the first set of brackets, create a Wiki Word for the event, beginning with the InYr . . . , followed by abbreviated text for the event; in the second, write the name of the event as you want it to show up among the other events for the year. You can preview your work (bottom of page), then save it. This will return you to this YearIndex page, where you will see your new event show up. If it's not quite right, go back into Edit mode and tweak it. When you are satisfied with the new event name in the list and have saved this page, click on the new event title's question mark to actually create the page for this event, and follow the steps in the first paragraph above.
