How to set up an item for a page with no active STUFF items:

STUFF help page

1. In the article

Edit the article that pertains to the fact you want to STUFF.

  • First of all, make sure that you're logged in to a [/wiki/Special:UserLogin user name]. Users who have not logged in may not add items to the STUFF process.
  • Place

on the article page at the top of the Fun Facts section, immediately below the ==Fun Facts== header.
  • If you are removing an item, cut the item in question to the clipboard.
  • Save the page. Describe your edit in the edit summary; do not mark it as minor.


2. The STUFF subpage

To set up the STUFF subpage:

  • You should see a prominent link to "this article's entry" in the new text. Follow that link (to "STUFF:pagename").

    Enter the following text, including the vertical line:

{{stuffpagehead|stuffnew}}

{{stuffbegin}}

=== Catchy title ===
{{stufffact|The suspect fact.}}
{{stuffdata|[[stuffnew]]|~~~~~}}

{{stuffargsfor}}
<!--# list-->

{{stuffargsagainst}}
<!--# list-->

{{stuffcomments}}
<!--* list-->

{{stuffaccept}}
<!--# list-->

{{stuffdecline}}
<!--# list-->

{{stuffendvotes}}

{{stuffend}}


  • Copy all the text in the box above.
  • Clear the edit window below (remove {{stuffnew}}) and paste the copied text.
  • Make an argument for or against the fact. Start a numbered list (#) in the appropriate place.
  • Vote to accept or decline the fact. Start a numbered list and sign it with three tildes (#~~~).
  • Preview and save the page.
  • Add a link on the main STUFF page.



  • Preview the page, and follow the resulting additional instructions that are displayed when you preview the page.


3. Link to the index

Link the subpage to the main STUFF page:

  • Copy the STUFF page title ("STUFF:pagename") from the top of the page.
  • Switch to and edit HRWiki:STUFF.
  • Add a link to the new STUFF page at the top of the list of items, using the following form: Template:STUFF:''pagename'' (notice the curly braces).
  • Preview and save the page. Describe your edit in the edit summary; do not mark it as minor.
