Extracts

The sections below were removed till we find a useful place for them. I think the UI has to be self-explanatory for beginners, they will not read instructions. ~Mike-ZeleaCom^talk 03:21, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

Create position pages

1. To express your position in a poll and to collect votes for it, go to the poll page and press My Position.
2. There you press create.
3. Now fill in your text just above Category:Position. Maybe you want to copy from another position in this poll and make your changes to it.
4. To complete it, write a short description of your position behind "position description=" at the top.
5. Save the page.

Create your 'User' page

1. Click at your username at the top of the screen.
2. Create and submit the page even without adding any content. This allows the Pollwiki to do some magic stuff, placing your polls on your userpage automatically.

Create a new poll

1. Create a new wiki page by simply adding /p/xyz to the url of the area page the poll belongs in. xyz stand for a few letters as an identifier for the poll. Take only 2-5 charekters for shorter url's. You can still properly name it later.
   • Example: url of an area page: http://reluk.ca/w/G
   • Example: url of a poll page in this area: http://reluk.ca/w/G/p/frvp
2. Copy the content of another poll page in this area, paste it into yours and make the necesarry modifications.

Create a separate area for your city, country or organization

1. Create a new wiki page by simply changing the last letter(s) of the url of an already existing area. For example replace the G in the url of the global area page: http://reluk.ca/w/G with 1-3 charakters as an identifier for your desired area. Keep the url short.
2. Copy the content of another area page and paste it into yours and make the necesarry modifications.
