Before deferring this discussion to the forums instead of this list, try
the following, which works in addition to the two ways Penedo already
suggested:
Open up the Wikiglide site.
In the search section, just under navigation, type the name of an article
you want to create, e.g. Fred Nurk, and press the GO button.
In the search results that appear, for a non-existent page it will say
"No page with this exact title exists, trying full text search. "
Notice that the words "this exact title" are a hyperlink shown in
red. When you click on that link, you go to an Edit page, and you can
write wikitext to your heart's content. Then save the page and you're done.
Cheers
Jason

Maybe it's not the most stright-forward way but there are two ways I
can think off:
1. Create an internal link from another page - if the linked page doesn't
exist
then the link will appear in red - you can then click on it to get to
the "non-existing
page" and edit it by pressing the edit tab at the top.
2. Just type the page's url, with spaces replaced by "_", e.g. I typed:
http://www.wikiglide.com/wiki/index.php/Test_Create and got to a "Test Create"
page and could start editing it.
The first method has the advantage of making sure there is at least one
link to
the new page so it's not an "island". Also this way is easier to enter
non-standard
characters in the url (otherwise you'll have to know how to escape
them manually).
Just one more thing - in order to save the local residents of
aus-soaring from these
technical issues there is a forum about the wiki, so I think such
discussions would
better move over there.
Hope this helps.
