My profile
- I am Tejinder Ahuja,a computing teacher,at correspondence school, New Zealand, which caters to the needs of a diverse range of about 22000 students. As I am involved in creating resources, this training, I believe, should help me a lot for my PD. An eye for detail is my strength and hunger for knowledge is my 1st weakness.
I love to play Snooker.I enjoy jokes till they are covered under copy right act. Poetry is my third weakness, after my wife, my second weakness. I can do any thing except serious thinking or any activity that limits my vision.Most of the time I find one reason or the other for my happiness.

Wiki concept
Wiki for two people is like getting married and each off spring is like wiki page created by both of them. Couples are suggested to name their kids as their wiki1, wiki2, wiki3 and so on. But if ten people are contributing in a wiki then it is like common cooking kitchen where every one has full right to either create mess or contribute to reciepe. Who added sugar and who added salt is immaterial as long as the food is fit for purpose. Even if it is not still it remains wiki.
In a nut shell wiki is the best example of creating synergy where 1+1 is always more than 2. It could be 100 or 1005679. Wikipedia, Wikieducator and Wikispaces are the living examples.
Another example of Wiki is the pre historian time of human multiplication by wiki system. Anybody and everybody contributed. Lo we are about seven billion living wikis with restricted contribution rights.
Notes and Feedback from my Wiki Neighbours
- Hi, Tejinder: I noticed your entry in the gallery of Cape Town OE Declaration signers, directly after mine, and saw that your picture wasn't showing up. I figured out what was wrong. The names of all WE pages and files are case sensitive. You had a capital letter in the link to your picture which wasn't in the original (Tj.Jpg vs. Tj.jpg). I struggle with misplaced capitals on a daily basis--that's how I knew to look for it. Once that was fixed and the brackets moved to the beginning of the link to your user page, it worked fine.
- Glad you are part of the "crowd" of us signing the declaration. May our paths cross again soon! Your WikiNeighbor, Alison Snieckus 13:36, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- All the following are in your tutorials, but I put them here for you as a kind of learning shortcut. Earlier posts on bottom, later ones on top.
- Here is another tip. Uploading Pictures. You have a picture on your computer. You want to put it onto a page you are editing. Remember where it is and what it is called on your computer. On your page, in edit mode, you name the file by whatever name you want to call it. Do not use a generic name like "My_picture" or it will get easily mixed up on the WikiEd site. Best is to put your name in the file name you choose. Make sure the extension is one of the many Wiki can handle, like gif, png or jpg. Put it inside two sets of square brackets. At the beginning, type in the word image followed by a colon followed by your image file name. Then save and that puts your page into publishing mode, and you have a web page again. The image file name should appear in red, indicating that it has not been used already. Click on it and a new page will appear that has easy instructions abut uploading the file from your computer. Do it. The image gets its own page. When you see it, go to the bottom of that image page; click on your page name and there it will be.--Phil Bartle 13:40, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
- Another tip is to borrow from your Wiki neighbours. Browse around other User pages. If there is anything you like, just copy it and paste it in to your user page. Make any modification you need, and there you are. --Phil Bartle 03:15, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
- If you have not seen it yet, I recommend that you look at the youtube video clip on Wikis. In WikiEd, as in the video, the most important buttons are edit and save. A third button, Link, is not quite the same on WikiEd. To make a sub page, in edit mode, you simply give it a name. put forward slashes around it, then two square brackets in front and after the result. When you save, the word will be in red. Click on it and it will tell you there is no such page. As soon as you start editing, the sub page is created. --Phil Bartle 03:05, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
