Hopefully this page will grow to be an index of examples and suggestions of best practices for putting course material up on this wiki.
= Per-semester Course Updates =
== What's this? ==
The wiki allows on-the-fly updates to material, but sometimes you may want to make major changes for a new semester (for example replace the operating system used in your course) and in that case you want to keep the old version of the course for reference or in case you want to go back to it.
== How to Do It ==
Let's say you have a course page called ABC123_Subject1 which contains the material for one week of your course. I would avoid putting the week number or lecture number into the name of the page, in case you decide to move it into another week in a subsequent semester.
To create that page simply go to the URL http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/ABC123_Subject1 and click "edit this page". But don't add your content in there yet.
After you do that you'll be able to make a link to that page by writing <nowiki>[[ABC123_Subject1]]</nowiki> in another page. Since I've done it already for this course, here's what it looks like:
[[ABC123_Subject1]]
