Thanks, Hiroshi!  That is very helpful information, I think.

Do you think we should put this information on the Shashi wiki?  Perhaps you could add it to the Template page -- in a new heading such as <Getting Started> --

Hi Ken,

I usually make new pages in the following way.

1. Make a new page with Japanese (kanji + kana) title. (e.g. http://library.osu.edu/wikis/shashidb/index.php?title=%E3%81%82%E3%81%99%E3%81%8B%E8%A3%BD%E8%96%AC&redirect=no); Write #redirect=Aiueo, and [[category:shashi(J)|あいうえお]]

2. Then save the page, and you'll find Aiueo in red. Click it and create a new page in Roman alphabet. In this way, the Japanese page and Roman alphabetical page are connected.

3. Many companies have English names, and I make a page for it and redirect it to Roman alphabet pages.

In short, Roman alphabetical pages (as in library record) are the core of all the pages. Japanese pages and English pages are connected by the code "#redirect=xxxxxx"

For adding Pitt category, just add [[category:Pitt]] on the bottom, and it adds the page to Pitt category. When you click Pitt on the bottom, it jumps to Pitt category. Now I use the categories (a) the library (i.e. OSU), (b) Shashi(J) for Japanese titles, (c) Shashi(R) for Roman alphabet, (d) Shashi(E) for English, (e) Nikkei classification (e.g., Pharmaceuticals etc.), and (f) Nagao bunko classification (e.g., F-34:医薬品製造業).These categories are linked by writing [[category:xxxxxx]].

Other basic rules are:
- Follow the conventions if any (though some pages are under revision as they have English pages at the center).
- As for internal link (i.e., link to other wiki pages) use double brackets, [[xxxx]]
- As for external link (i.e., link to other websites), use single brackets, [xxxx].
- Additional information on Wiki Syntax can be found elsewhere, like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_edit

I hope this is not too confusing. Let me know if you need further help.

Hiroshi

Hi Ken --

You can add a new page by doing a search on the exact term of the title of the new page.  Be careful -- for example, because it will be the exact new title. 

As for identifying it with Pitt's collection, you can use a category at the bottom. 

You can learn how to do this by looking at how another page was constructed -- see the tabs at the top of various pages -- you can see the code.

I am copying this email to my graduate assistant, Hiroshi Shima.  He can give you some more advice. 

Looking forward to working with you -- please don't hesitate to email me again.

Dear Maureen Donovan,

Hi, I am Kenzaburo Tsukuda. I am working for Mr.Good at East Asian
Library of University of Pittsburgh. I would like to get a manual or
easy guide for Shashi-Wiki on which I am asked to work by Mr.Good. I
do not know how to begin since we do not have a manual to start with
Shashi-Wiki. Please help me on this.

1.      I would like to know how to start A NEW PAGE.
2.      I would like to know how to add that new page on SHASI COLLECTION of Pitt.


That would be great if you reply me soon.

Sincerely yours, Ken
