Note for students

If you are a student and there isn't a page describing your project, this is because YOU have the task of creating it and populating it with (meaningful) content. If you are a student and there IS a page describing your project, you have the task to complete that page with (useful and comprehensive) information about you and your own contribution to the project.

Be aware that you can work within the AIRLab's structures (see The Labs) only after the page of your project has been set up AND completed with all the above information. Be also aware that the quality of your work (or lack of it) on the AIRWiki will be evaluated by the Teachers and will influence your grades.

Instructions to add a new project are available at Projects#HOWTO add a new project to the AIRWiki

HOWTO add a new project to the AIRWiki

Contributing to a wiki is easy and leaves you with a deep sense of satisfaction: your work has a direct helping effect on all the other users. Here is a complete description of the procedure to create a new page associated to your project:

  1. open a text editor (e.g. Notepad);
  2. create a new, empty text file: let's call it YourPage.txt;
  3. open the Project page template AIRWiki page with a browser (e.g. Firefox): the internet address is http://airwiki.elet.polimi.it/mediawiki/index.php/Project_page_template;
  4. click the edit tab on the top of the Project page template to expose the wiki source text;
  5. copy all the content of the source text window into YourPage.txt, e.g. by using Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V. Make sure not to cut or alter the source text of the Project page template! Do NOT click on the 'Save page' button!!;
  6. close your browser;
  7. modify the YourPage.txt file by substituting all the example text with information about your project;
  8. with a browser, open the Projects AIRWiki page: the internet address is http://airwiki.elet.polimi.it/mediawiki/index.php/Projects;
  9. go to the 'Ongoing projects' section and find the subsection having the name of the research area of your project: e.g. "E-Science" (if you have doubts, ask the teachers);
  10. click the edit link on the right of the subsection to expose the wiki source text;
  11. choose a name of your liking for the new AIRWiki page dedicated to your project: use a word or a short phrase with only the first letter in capitals, let's say "My project";
  12. add a new text line with the name of your project and a link to its wiki page, simply by writing down the page name ("My project") surrounded by double square parentheses (this will create the page when you will click the "Save page" button - DON'T click it now)
  13. using a blank line to separate the new line from pre-existing text; be extremely careful not to alter pre-existing text: if you think you could have done that, press the 'back' button of your browser to exit from the editing page without saving;
