User talk:BAutomation

 Hello and Welcome to Wikiversity BAutomation! You can contact us with questions at the colloquium or me personally when you need help. Please remember to sign and date your finished comments when participating in discussions. The signature icon above the edit window makes it simple.

To get started, you may


 * Take a guided tour and learn to edit.
 * Visit a (kind of) random project.
 * Browse Wikiversity, or visit a portal corresponding to your educational level: pre-school, primary, secondary, tertiary, non-formal education.
 * Find out about research activities on Wikiversity.
 * Explore Wikiversity with the links to your left.


 * Read an introduction for teachers and find out how to write an educational resource for Wikiversity.
 * Give feedback about your initial observations
 * Discuss Wikiversity issues or ask questions at the colloquium.
 * Chat with other Wikiversitans on #wikiversity-en.
 * Follow Wikiversity on twitter (http://twitter.com/Wikiversity) and identi.ca (http://identi.ca/group/wikiversity).

You do not need to be an educator to edit. You only need to be bold to contribute and to experiment with the sandbox or your userpage. See you around Wikiversity! --Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 23:18, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Portals
Portals have their own namespace. The Building Automation portal page has been moved to Portal:Building Automation. Let me know if you have any questions. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 18:07, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

Building Automation
Your recent contributions have been arranged under the Building Automation learning project. Please create all related pages as subpages of this project. Use /title/ format to create a link to subpages. You'll see that the introduction and history pages already have links like this. Let me know if you have any questions. -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 20:08, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi Dave, I'm not familiar enough with Wiki language nor I have enough time to learn. I'm not a programmer and I'm not quite sure what your comment above means. I guess you mean "when creating a new page use this format for the page title so a link to the 'title' home page will automatically be created at the top of the subpage", instead of "this is how to create a link to the home page anywhere" or what's actually written "this is how you create a link to subpages".


 * I'm trying to create main page (similar to a portal) but where the links to subpages are not automatically organized. I.e. I want to keep control of the structure, but I don't know how.


 * Other questions I have:
 * - How is a page table of contents created? I didn't find any code for it in the pages that have it, but it didn't show up in the pages I created?
 * - Would it be possible to limit editing permission of the project main page to just some users?


 * I have more questions, but let's see if you receive this first.


 * Sorry, I had a missing 'i' above that didn't close the nowiki correctly. I've adjusted that so that it hopefully makes more sense as viewed.  If you aren't interested in learning wikitext, I recommend using the VisualEditor.  It's an option available under Preferences / Beta Features.  It makes basic editing easier, but isn't quite as good on things like subpage links.  My instructions were literal, as in 'this is how you create a link to subpages'.


 * A table of contents only appears when a page has more than three headings. You can force it to appear using.


 * It is possible to limit editing of pages to either logged-in users or to only custodians, but we only protect pages that are vandalism targets. Otherwise, everything is open content, available for all to improve.  If you'd prefer to keep something to yourself to edit, you can either create it in your user space (starting with User:BAutomation/), or use a different website, such as Google Sites, where you can control who has editing rights.
