Overwrote Documentation page

Hi, I just noticed that you overwrote the main documentation page and I wanted to let you know that I undid it. Just an fyi, If you ever overwrite a page by mistake, you can go to the history tab on any page and click on "undo" on the newest revision to reverse it.

Please let em know if I can help you with anything.

Cheers

Hi, can you please tell me how to upload my file into wiki page, I am really confused. It doesn't tranfer my essay in the same format when I copy and paste.

It is a Word file that you are trying to copy and paste? Word files, unfortunately, do not transfer easily to the wiki. The wiki uses a mark-up language to control format (basically a simplified version of html) that word does not export to by default.

The page has some tips and plug-ins that might help: Help:Converting_Documents_into_Wiki_Syntax.

If those don't do the trick, it is recommended that you copy/paste the text and format it with the help with the wiki toolbar (see:Help:Formatting_Toolbar)

Good luck!

Delete Notice on Course:Bacterial_Richness

Hi, thanks for using the UBC Wiki. I just wanted to let you know that I put a delete notice on the page you created at Course:Bacterial_Richness as it looks like it might have been created by mistake and then duplicated at Course:EOSC_475/ResearchProject/BacterialRichness. Please let me know if you do not want that page to be deleted.

Just as an fyi, if you create a page by mistake, you can always rename it using the move function - see Help:Moving a page for more info.

Thanks again

Hi there, Yes, I believe I made it by mistake. The only "bacterial richness" text that I need is supposed to be under the course 475(please don't delet this one)project.

Great - thanks for letting me know. For the most part, we normally only put delete notices on pages that look like they were created by mistake and would never delete an active project.

Thanks again,
