* In order to select another WIKI's contents, '''launch a separate (i.e. another) web-browser Window''',<br />go to that WIKI (but do <u>NOT</u> go into edit mode). Highlight the contents you want to copy, and then select '''EDIT - > COPY''' (or press '''ctrl-c''').<br /> Refer to '''Image 2''' (click image to enlarge).
* '''Switch back to <u>your</u> web-browser and <u>paste</u> the copied text''' by selecting '''EDIT - > PASTE''' from the browser menu (or press '''ctrl-v''')
* The problem is that the "tags" to indicate links and formatting weren't copied. Why? Because we weren't in the edit screen! <br />Refer to '''Image 3''' (click image to enlarge).
* In order to fix this problem, we would need to manually add in the tags. For this example, we need to add the webpage address BEFORE the text description that is inside the square brackets. Refer to '''Image 4''' (click image to enlarge).
* Then save your editing session, and you should have an exact duplicate of contents copied (including external links) from another WIKI. Refer to '''Image 5''' (click image to enlarge).
