Category talk:12lb Bots

Many of us that participate in the Norwalk Havoc Robot League may not have account permissions on this website to create/add new pages for our Bots. Below is a "work-around" for creating a web page for your Bot(s).

• Open the web page for a Bot that has a page you like and want to use as a template. For example, I start here: https://50day.io/mediawiki/index.php/Category:12lb_Bots
• Click on the Bot whose page you will use as a template, and Click "Edit source"
• Use your mouse to highlight then copy (CTRL-C) the HTML source.
• Make sure you copy the HTML source code lines that include something like:
  • Category:12lb Bots (surrounded by double brackets)
  • Category:NHRL 2020 (surrounded by double brackets)
  • This is found at the bottom of my Bot's pages.

• Click Discussion (at the top, under the page title "Editing Category talk:...")
• Paste your copied HTML content into the editor window.
• Edit your content. You will be able to re-edit your page as needed.
• Scroll down the page; add a summary line for your Bot.
• Make sure "Watch source page and target page" so you know when someone edits your page.
• Click "Save page".
• You are not done!... you must complete the steps below.

• When you clicked "Save Page", the wiki should show you that page.
• On the right side of the window, under "Page tools", click "Move".
• Change the form from "Talk" to (Main).
• Change "Norwalk Havoc Robot League" to the name of your Bot (e.g. "Next Awesome Bot")
• Enter the reason "Creating web page for my X lbs Bot"
• Make sure "Watch source page and target page" so you know when someone edits your page.
• Click "Move page". (you are done)

• On the left side, click "Categories" under Navigation.
• Click on your category
• Verify your bot appears in the list.
• If your page isn't shown in your expected category, please go find it and fix it. You may have omitted the category tags in the HTML that are required for the wiki to place it in your category.
