Getting Started

  1. Open a new browser window, and go to the following page: http://www.phisigmapi.org/wiki/index.php?title=Members:Your_Name. View this sample page as an example: Members:Sample_Member.
  2. In your new page, type or copy/paste the following: {{subst:Member Bio Template}}
  3. Save the page. It should look like the Members:Sample_Member page. Update your page with your details.
  4. When finished, check to see that your page exists by searching on your name. You can also check the Categorical Index of all Member bios.
