How To Create a Pattern
#Check that a similar pattern doesn't already exist: browse the relevant category of current patterns by clicking on a category name in the top menu. #If the pattern doesn't exist, type the title of your pattern into the Search box in the right column and perform a search (click the search button or press return). #On the search results page, click the link to create your pattern, where the page asks you to: ''Create the page "<u>Pattern Name</u>" on this wiki!'' #Follow the pattern template in the editor. If one of the sections isn't relevant to your pattern, delete the instructions and section title. #If you need to upload any files, for example an image for the gallery, first save your pattern. Then, use the ''Upload file'' link in the footer menu to upload your file, making a note of the filename. Re-edit your pattern (using the Edit link in the footer menu), and then use the Image button on the editor toolbar to locate your file (by filename) and insert a thumbnail into the page. #If you make any mistakes, or wish to regularly save, you can re-edit your page at any time using the ''Edit'' link in the footer menu.<br>
