New page

Hello and welcome to Cunnan. The instructions on this page are for people helping with our project to compile a complete set of redactions for the [[Forme of Cury]]. '''Please read the basic instructions''' before starting as they explain the basics of wiki editing and clear up some common misconceptions. When you are ready to start you should move on to the [[Cunnan:Recipes from the Forme of Cury|Recipes from the Forme of Cury]] and start editing!

If you would like to experiment with editing pages before you start helping then please use the [[Cunnan:Sandbox|Sandbox]].

== Basic Instructions ==
'''Everyone should read these'''
# If you want to have you contributions attributed to yourself then you should login. Help on logging in can be found at [[Cunnan:How to Log in]]. If you want to know how copyrights are handled on cunnan then you should look at [[Cunnan:Copyrights]].
# To edit any page in the wiki go to the page and click the "Edit this page" link (it should be displayed at the left and bottom of articles).
# When editing a recipe page you need to delete the line that says "<!-- empty redaction currently hidden". If you dont do this then your work will be invisible!
# Please use the provided outlines for redactions. You'll notice that lists are made by ading * or # to the start of lines. Headings are made by typing == at the start and end of lines. You can click "preview" to see what a page currently looks like.
# When you are done typing in a redaction click "Save page" and you work will be saved. Don't worry if you have made a mistake, you can click "edit this page" again to make corrections.
# You shouldn't change the period recipes unless there is an obvious translitteration error. (please note that some older browsers may not be able to display the thorn or eth, this isn't an error).

== Advanced Instructions ==
'''You don't have to read these but they may be helpful'''

=== Addings links ===
You can add links to other pages by surrounding words with <nowiki>[[</nowiki> and <nowiki>]]</nowiki>. For example <nowiki>[[chicken]]</nowiki> becomes [[chicken]]. Ingredients, other recipe names and commen period ingredient names are all things that might be more useful as links.

=== Discussing a recipe article ===
If you need to ask a question about a given recipe then you should go to that recipes page and click "Discuss this page".

=== Multiple/Alternative redactions ===
If you have an alternative redaction for a recipe then you should make a copy of the "modern recipe" text and paste it below the first redaction. You might also like to change "== Modern recipe ==" into "== Modern recipe 1 ==" and "== Modern recipe 2 ==", etc.

=== Modern recipe names ===
If a recipe has a common modern name then the article should appear under that name. You'll need to be logged in to move an article to a different name. Click on "Move this page" and you will be asked for the new name for the article. The old name will automaticaly be turned into a "redirect" to the new one. Make sure you add " (recipe)" to the new name.

=== Alternative period recipes ===
If you have an alternative '''period''' recipe for a given dish then you can change the "== Period recipe ==" heading to "== period recipe 1 ==" and create a new "== period recipe 2 ==" heading. Remember to give a source!

If you have a different recipe that shares the same name then it should go at the end of the article (that is to say after the first recipe and its redactions).

=== Redactions previously published elsewhere ===
If you are adding a redaction that has previously been published elsewhere (or if you find a redaction added by someone else that you know has been published elsewhere) then you should add a note just after the heading "== Modern recipe ==" saying who wrote it and where it was published. You don't need to and shouldn't do this for recipes redaction that have been written for Cunnan.

=== Recipe Notes ===
==== Period recipes ====
The notes about words and terms used in the recipes are those that were added by [[Samuel Pegge]] in his 18th century edition of the roll. They are often confusing and may refer to the index, glossary or preceeding recipe. They can be changed/updated and additional notes are of course welcome (the period recipes themselves shouldn't be changed of course).

==== Modern recipes ====
Notes about the modern recipes (e.g. how many people a recipe serves) should be placed after the "== Modern recipe ==" heading.
