==How to contribute Patterns==
 
==How to contribute Patterns (5 steps)==


{{About patterns}}  
{{About patterns}}  


There is no standard template for patterns. How you write and format your patterns is ultimately your choice. Likewise, pattern subcategories are intended to be fluid and emergent. We welcome you to help shape how these patterns are presented and linked together.
Note: For pattern workshops and other opportunities, visit [[Introduction:_Patterns|Introduction: Patterns]].
 
Adding a pattern to zodiac.wiki is a quick and easy process. Here is a step-by-step breakdown:
 
 
1. Visit [[:Category:Patterns|Patterns]] and ensure your pattern doesn't already exist.
* If your pattern or a similar pattern already exists, you have the option to ''edit'' the existing pattern. Simply click the "Edit" tab at the top of any pattern's page.
* In the context of zodiac.wiki, ''patterns'' are called <code>Pages</code> and ''pattern categories'' are called <code>Subcategories</code>
 
2. Create a page for your pattern. Here are a couple of options to get you started:
* via a template: follow instructions on how to use a template to start your pattern [[Zodiac.wiki_Templates|here]].
* via Search: enter the title of your pattern into the search bar at the top right of the site, hit enter, then click the name of your pattern on the results page to "create the page."

3. Add your pattern into the editing field, using wikitext markup to stylize and format the text.
* See the [[Zodiac_Wikitext_Cheatsheet|Zodiac Wikitext Cheatsheet]] for a table of the most common markup options for zodiac.wiki.
* It is recommended to write and/or save your pattern outside of zodiac.wiki's editing mode, as technical errors and connection issues could potentially lead to lost content.
* There is no standard template for patterns. How you write and format your patterns is ultimately your choice. ''
 
4. Determine which subcategory or subcategories (a.k.a. tags) fit with your pattern and add to the bottom of your post.
* All patterns should have <code><nowiki>[[Category:Patterns]]</nowiki></code> at the bottom of the post.
* Current subcategories can be found [[:Category:Patterns|here]].
* If you'd like to add a new subcategory, simply add a new tag.
* ''Note: Pattern subcategories are intended to be fluid and emergent. All are susceptible to change.''

5. Add a brief summary of your changes to the <code>Summary</code> field, then click "Save page" (or "Show preview," if you'd like to review your changes before saving).
* zodiac.wiki is an open resource, but to protect against spam, submissions are moderated before published.

2. Create a page for your library item. The easiest way is to use the Library Submission template below (you can also find the template [[Zodiac.wiki_Templates|here]]).

* Hit "enter" to visit the new custom URL, which will pre-load the Library Submission template for you to fill in.
