Adding an article

To add a new article, type the name of the article into the search box then click go. When the search returns no entry with that name, click 'create this page'.

Adding Spaces

For long lists of text (like checklists) it's best to add a space after every line. Using an editor like [Notepad++] allows you to add the spaces quickly by doing a mass replace (search -> replace) and replacing all \n with \n\n. Make sure extended mode is selected.
