How to Use This Wiki
Creating a New Page
The simplest way to create a page is via the URL:
- Go to your browser's address bar
- Type:
https://wiki.gi7b.org/index.php/Your_Page_Name - MediaWiki will show "this page does not exist"
- Click the Create tab at the top
- Write your content and click Save page
Use underscores for spaces in page names. The title displays with spaces automatically.
Subpages
To create a page that belongs to a section, use a slash in the name:
https://wiki.gi7b.org/index.php/Open_Source/My_New_Guide
This creates My_New_Guide as a subpage of Open_Source. MediaWiki automatically adds a breadcrumb link back to the parent page.

Inside any wiki page, link to another page using double brackets:

Naming Conventions on This Wiki
Pages on this wiki follow a Topic-YYMMDD naming convention where the date identifies when the page was created or the work was done. Example: Claude_Code_Isolation_and_Burner_Workflow_260211.
Section index pages (this page, Open_Source, Repositories, etc.) are the exception — they have short, stable names with no date.
