Wiki

The Wiki holds explanations and reference pages written by teachers, which problems and other pages link to, much like Wikipedia. Students read the wiki; only teachers create and edit pages.

Which pages you see

Page	Who can read it
Public	Everyone who signs in.
Organisation	Members of that organisation (students included), and everyone who learns or teaches in its courses.

• Students never see drafts (pages not published yet).
• An archived page leaves the list and search. If you open a link to it, the page says it has been archived: links to it stay, but it can no longer be read.
• A page you may not read does not exist for you: it is in neither the list nor the tree.

Open the wiki

• Select Wiki in the sidebar to open the wiki’s home (/wiki).
• The arrow next to Wiki expands the page tree right in the sidebar. Pages with subpages expand on their own, the open page is highlighted, and the way to it is expanded. This browser remembers what you expanded.
• In search (Ctrl K), choose Wiki, or type part of a page’s title or text: the Wiki group lists the pages you can read that match (Search and help).
• Select a wiki link in a problem’s statement.

The wiki’s home

The home shows a tree of every page you can read: pages can have subpages, which can have their own.

• Search in the “Search titles and text” field looks through page titles and text. Case and Lithuanian accents do not matter: saknis also finds “Šaknis”. Results show as a list. When there are many, only some show, so make your search more specific.
• Who can read: All, Public or Organisation shows only those pages.

Reading a page

• The path at the top: Wiki › higher pages › this page.
• The page tree on the left. Type part of a title into Filter pages (accents do not matter). The way to the open page is expanded; links in the tree open pages in the same tab.
• The page in the middle: who can read it (Public or the organisation’s name), when it was updated, and the text with code, images and formulas.
• Subpages at the end of the page, when there are any, and Previous / Next cards to the neighbouring pages in tree order.
• On this page on the right: the page’s headings. The section you are reading is highlighted. Selecting a heading scrolls to it and puts a link to that spot in the address bar, which you can copy and share.

With less room (a narrow window or a wide sidebar), the tree opens with the Pages button and the contents with On this page above the page.

Wiki links in problems

In problem statements and wiki pages, wiki links look like ordinary links.

• Preview. Hover over a link, or focus it with the keyboard, and after a moment a card shows where the page is in the wiki, its title, who can read it, its first paragraph and its first image. Touch screens show no preview: a tap simply follows the link.
• Open. Selecting the link opens the page in its own tab (or switches to the tab already showing it), and the statement stays in its tab.
• If the page does not exist or you may not read it, the card says “Page unavailable”. If it has been archived, it says “This page has been archived.”

Related wiki pages

Under a problem’s statement (on the problem’s page and in the code editor’s statement pane) there may be a Related wiki pages section. It lists the pages your teacher added to the problem and the pages the statement links to. Only published pages you can read are listed; when there are none, the section does not show.
