ClubWiki:Creating a Trail

Steps to creating a new trail (or filling out a referenced one that has no page)

• See if the trail name already exists, search the site, browse the map, or browse the trail list
  • If you found it at one of those locations but the link is red or when you click the link, it says no page resides there then click 'Create' and start adding
  • If the trail cannot be found at either location then simply 'browse' to it by going to the address bar and substituting the current page name with the trail name page
• Ensure the trail is referenced in all appropriate spots
  • Main page map - go to Map AreaTrails and edit to add the coordinates and trail name. The trail name used here will be set as a wiki link to the trail page and must be spaced and spelled the same to work
  • Trail distance page - go to Trails list by distance from Kingsport and add your trail to the appropriate spot in the list following the formatting, including the distance to the trail head based on Google Maps driving distance from "Kingsport, TN"
• For the trail page go to Template:Trail and copy the source over to your new trail page and fill out as described in the comments
• Add the appropriate categories, to see the categories currently used go to ClubWIKI:Categorization Plan to read how we're using categories
