'''How to Create a Page'''<br>

==Editing==
Pages do not exist before someone creates them. So, if you search for a page regarding, for example, the Double Lift or Dove Productions, and you don't find a reference, then you can be the first one to create that entry.

* [[Help:Editing pages|Editing pages]]
So, to get started, type the subject you're looking for in the search box to the left. If no matching subject already exists, MagicPedia will give you the option to create a new page. Once you've created the new page, add the content.

===Advanced editing===
All pages can be edited by anyone viewing them unless the text is locked. Because MagicPedia is a dynamic community, editing pages should only be necessary for the creation of content or the correction and addition of content. For instructions on editing pages, see [[Help: Editing]] or [[MagicPedia: How to edit a page]]
