Help:Contents

From Pdpedia

The idea of pdpedia is to document Pd.

To edit pages, click on edit and change the page content. The more people get involved into the wiki the better results will be available. A more general help page for editing wiki pages is at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page.

[edit] Hints for Pdpedia

When you mention other objectclasses in your text, please make them all a link. Just enclose them in brackets. [[like this]].

All objects have some basic information like a short description, library, categories, ... you can edit them by inserting text after the "="(equal sign) at the top of the text.

If you see {{curly braces}}, that means a variable. The content of the variables appear in a separate page that can be accessed via "Template:variablename".

• Search operates on whole words only

[edit] Images

Upload your image to the mediapool : http://wiki.puredata.info/mediapool/Special:Upload . You may have to go through the user registration process before.

[[Image:myimage.jpg]]

You should be able to add a thumbnail by creating a tag in the form

Error creating thumbnail: sh: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory

Example of a thumbnail

[[Image:Wiki.png|thumb|Caption text]]

looks like it's broken at the moment :-/

All Pdpedia languages can then use the same images, therefore the local image upload is not possible: you have to use the mediapool.

See its file list : http://wiki.puredata.info/mediapool/Special:Imagelist.
