Project page

To add new project, create a page with the project name as a title (don't be afraid to use spaces/punctuation). Quickest way to create a new page is to type its name into the search box, click Go, and then Create the page link.

To mark the new page as a project, use the {{Project}} template. This will put your project into the projects category and it will render the Project info box on the right side of the content. The template has number of parameters described below, some of them mandatory.

Copy and Paste Template for Projects

This is a minimal working template for a project. You can add other, optional parameters.

{{Project
 |founder=

 |image=Rostock.jpg
 |founder=rmarko
 |coops=hyna,arius,cubz
 |hwlic=GPL
 |status=active
 |tags=hw
 |shortdesc=Our Rostock
 |created=2012-11-11
}}
