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

I. Edit the article that contains the fact you want to STUFF.
  • Place {{checkstuffpage}} on the article page at the top of the Fun Facts secion, immediately below the ==Fun Facts== header.
  • Cut the fact in question to the clipboard.
  • Save the page. Describe your edit in the edit summary; do not mark it as minor.

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

    Enter this text, including the vertical line: {{stuffnew|
    Paste the fact from the clipboard (remove the asterisk, if necessary).
    Type another vertical line, and then type a title for the item. Something brief, yet catchy.
    Finish with two closing braces: }}

    Example:
    {{stuffnew|This is a bad fact.|Catchy Title}}

  • Preview the page, and follow the resulting additional instructions.

III. 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: {{STUFF/pagename}} (notice the curly braces).
  • Preview and save the page. Describe your edit in the edit summary; do not mark it as minor.
