Workshop Ideas

Example Entry

Proposed by
Exampley Mc Exampleface
Time
3-4 years
Level
Some experience of using a wiki required
Resources
Laptop and 10 mice, USB hub (10 port)
Number
up to 10 people all huddled round a laptop and USB hub with 10 mice in it

You will learn how to make generic fictional entries into wiki pages, demostrating the format of the page expected, together with some humour. You will also use bullet points to:

  • show how bullet points are used in Mediawiki
  • add some much needed recursive self reference
  • make friends

You'll then finish off your description with how exciting workshop will be, or with an uncomfortable orphan sentence type paragraph.

This is the end of the example.
