To delete an image from a page

Go to the page, click on the pencil icon below the title on the left to launch the visual editor, scroll to an image, click on it with the mouse and press "delete" on your keyboard. Then save your changes (top right button).

To remove an image from the wiki

Go to the front page and click on "All files" at the bottom of the page (shortcut here: Files). Scroll down to your image and click on "delete" next to its title. Confirm your choice.

To display images in columns

Go to the page, click on the 3 dots below the title on the right to start the code editor, click on the pencil "Edit full page", move the cursor to the (horizontal) position where you want to add the gallery and paste the following code there

<gallery mode=packed heights=300px>.
File_1.jpg
File_2.jpg
File_3.jpg
</gallery>

Rename the file names (you can find the original file names on the front page under "Files" or locally where you uploaded them from). Remember to save the page.

The images will try to fit the screen horizontally, you can have as many as you like and you can also play with the 300px in the settings, change it to 250px or 350px or else..

How to create a table of contents

The table of contents is automatically generated on every page containing four or more headings, e.g:

==Heading 1==
==Heading 2==
==Heading 3==
==Heading 4==

On pages with fewer headings, it can be rendered by positioning the following line using the code editor:

__TOC__ 

To rename a page

Go to the given page, click on the 3 dots below the title on the right to open the menu and select "Move". You will be taken to a "move" page where you can enter the new name and click on "Move page".

To place images side by side

Copy and paste the following code into a page in the code editor (not the visual editor):

<gallery mode=packed heights=300px>
Bøttemyra_pals_Hilde_photo_Nora_Vaage.jpeg
Bøttemyra_Pals_photo_Nora_Vaage.jpeg
</gallery>

Change the filenames, you can add as many images as you like. You can also change the heights from 300px to 250px or 350px or something else ("px" stands for pixels).

To link a page section

You can use anchors to link to any heading on any page. Headings are those with ==Title== or ===Title===.

For example:

[[Fieldwork#Notes]]

although the link will then appear as ‘Fieldwork#Notes’, so if you only want to show ‘Notes’, use

[[Fieldwork#Notes|Notes]]

There is another way to link the Notes section: creating a redirect page called Notes and put there nothing but the following line:

#REDIRECT [[Fieldwork#Notes]]

In this way you can simply link

[[Notes]]

and the user will be forwarded to that section.

To add a project in Fieldwork

Create a project page through the frontpage and add the following at its bottom:

[[Category:Responses]]

To add a project in a forest locality

Add one or more of the following at the bottom of a project page:

[[Category:Paljakka]]
[[Category:Pasvik]]
[[Category:Temminiki-Markkatieva]]
