<p>There are two main ways to create a new page.</p>
<p>The best method is by editing another page which will link <strong>to</strong> the new page.  That way the page is not "orphaned", IE: it has something pointing to it, a way that people can click to it from the [[Main Page]] on through.</p>
<UL>
  <LI> Edit the relevant existing page</LI>
  <LI> Create a link to the new page, inside wiki link bars: <nowiki>[[New Page Name]]</nowiki></LI>
  <LI> Save the page.</LI>
  <LI> You can now see the new page name, but it is in red - this indicates the page doesn't exist yet.  Click on it.</LI>
  <LI> Create the page and save it.</LI>
</UL>
<p>The second method, which allows you to create an orphan page, is to use the [[Sandbox]].  You may want to intentionally create an orphan page because it will be linked from a Category page instead.</p>
<UL>
  <LI> Go to the sandbox</LI>
  <LI> Edit the sandbox</LI>
  <LI> Create a link to the new page, inside wiki link bars: <nowiki>[[New Page Name]]</nowiki></LI>
  <LI> <strong>PREVIEW</strong> the page.</LI>
  <LI> You can now see the new page name, but it is in red - this indicates the page doesn't exist yet.  Click on it.</LI>
  <LI> Create the page and save it.</LI>
</UL>
<p>There is no need in that method to save the Sandbox - you're just tricking the Wiki into creating a link for you.</p>
