Getting Started

We encourage you to learn how to add new content and edit existing entries. Here's how to take your first baby steps:

  • Read the User's Guide for information on using the Mediawiki software.
  • Familiarise yourself with how Wikipedia works, and the way that information similar to what you want to add is organised.
  • If all that code is giving you a headache, I've prepared two templates - one for Terms (for inclusion in dictionary category) and one for People . Use these templates when adding a new term or information on a person so that a minimum amount of information can be captured. You can of course add more information. We'll build this library of templates as we go along. Here's calling all IT experts!!
  • Go on, type a word in Kelabit (but of course) in the search box on the left menu. If the word has not been submitted, a message will prompt you to create this page. Go on JUST DO IT.
  • OR you can go to the OKC WORD LIST and click on any of the words in RED that have not yet been included in the database.

FAQ - Ask your questions here

1. There are so many different Kelabit related websites. It's confusing where to find information I want.

  • This Wiki aims to be your one-stop information centre. For example:
    • If you look for pages categorised under Internet for instance, all the Kelabit and Bario related sites should be listed.
    • Searching for E-Bario in the search box will show you the project link at the UNIMAS website and the E-Bario homepage.

2.Does Wiki support HTML codes?

  • In addition to the formatting tools in the editor window, there is a set of HTML codes that are also permitted. See meta link-- [1]
