templates?
Brent,

I've just come back to Wikieducator and have not set up a template for ages; I know the syntax of the template but how do I start one? Where do I generate it so that it sits with all the other list of templates please?

Regards Sue

!Hi Sue; just saw your question; if you pop up to the web address in the browser and type http://www.wikieducator.org/Template:sample; hit enter, it will take you to a blank template and you hit the edit tab and off you go. (where 'sample' is whatever name you like for your template. Cheers, & Brent, I hope I have not violated any wiki conventions by answering in your discussion page; CheersDmccabe 03:27, 27 November 2007 (CET)

Editing
Hi Brent, I am placing some anatomy and physiology worksheets on Wiki Educator to support my Wikibook called The Anatomy and Physiology of Animals and have come across a number of editing issues I am stuck with. I wonder if you could tell me:

1. How to underline script

Ans Select the Text and from Rich editor press the underline botton

2. How to centre tables on the page

3. How to make the column size/cell size the same in tables

4. How to make a blank cell in a table that still has margins

Although mining policies have increased mining investment in Ghana (formerly Gold Coast), environmental policies have not been enacted to prevent deplorable living conditions in these mining communities. Due to the country’s richness in mineral resources, the mining sector in the economy holds the highest multinational investment venture. This is evidenced in Ghana’s production of significant amount of bauxite, aluminum, manganese, diamond and gold, with gold being the dominant mineral operation in the country. Apart from South Africa, Ghana is the second largest producer of gold and the third largest in the production of aluminum and manganese in the African continent (Coakley, 2000).

My Sandbox is colored red
I can not figure out why the word My Sandbox in my User: Ptauriki is colored red. Did I miss something out?

Oops.. I broke something
http://wikieducator.org/Category:Invitation_to_collaborate

I was adding the above description, hit save. Now pages with this Category are displayed as blank. I can't get back to fix it.

Sorry about that. ..Valerie

include one page in another
I remember the discussion. I don't remember if you can include/embed one page in another. If so, what is the syntax?

I want to put all the text of the specific guidelines for this semester http://www.wikieducator.org/DeAnza_College/CIS2/Community_service_learning_student_guidelines/SPRING_2009

into the wrapper page which is the same each semester http://www.wikieducator.org/DeAnza_College/CIS2/Community_service_learning_student_guidelines

Thanks ..Valerie
