Wikis are unlike most web authoring environments in that there does '''not''' exist a ''New Page'' button.

All new pages are brought into existence by:
# first creating a link to a non-existent page
# following the link to this as of yet uncreated space and adding content
# saving the page which finalizes its creation.

===Create a new page by "Add to Category"===

 Because the above process seems to profoundly confuse many new wiki authors, we've added functionality which also lets you create a new page from any category page.
-# Navigate to the category page where you'd like to add an article
+# Navigate to the [[Categories - Mediawiki| category page]] where you'd like to add an article
 # Enter the page name in the "Add page..." form
 #Click '''Create'''
