This page describes the steps necessary to create and edit your own article. This information is generally valid for creating any kind of article on this wiki but may be particularly useful to new Nugget authors.

Creating an Article

All pages on this wiki are articles including the RHESSI science nuggets. In order to create a new article a title must first be chosen. The title of an article cannot be changed so choose your article title carefully! It is possible to move the content from one article to another with a different title but this is not a recommended practice. There are two main ways to create an article.
