Category Pages

A category page is a table-of-contents page. Generally you won't change these, instead add your information to a regular page or a new page (see how to create a new page below).

Adding a Category to a page

Say you write a page "L-series Engine Swaps". Be sure to add the category to the bottom of the page:

[[Category:Engine Removal And Installation]]

Where Can I see a list of Categories?

The list of top-level Categories is here: Datsun 1200 encyclopedia.


New Pages

How Do I Create a New Page?

On any existing page, click a "red link". You will be prompted to create the new page. Type in the info you have, then click Save. You may wish to Preview it first.

Alternatively, you can "edit" any existing page, add a wiki link ([[like this]]), preview it, then click the link to start the new page. You don't have to save the edited old page.
