The easiest way to add a new page is probably to edit the URL in your browser that currently looks like:
+
# Start by selecting "edit" at the top of the page to take a look at the underlying code of this page to become familiar with what the code looks like. Now, in order to create a new page that is automatically linked to an already existing page all you need to do is type your preferred page title name and wrap it with double square brackets as it is shown here: '''<nowiki>[[Type New Page Name Here]]</nowiki>'''
 +
#* To explain further, if you want to add a new page called "Basket Weaving" under the "Culture" section. Simply, go into edit mode and add "Basket Weaving" underneath "Bars and Clubs" by using the double square brackets to wrap your new page title.
 +
#* Now select the "Save page" button and click on your new "Basket Weaving" link and it will direct you to your newly created page for "Basket Weaving".
 +
#* Using this method makes it so you do not have to go back and worry about linking your new page to an existing page. Now all that is left is to add content to your new page while in edit mode and save it.  All done.
 +
# Alternatively, you can add a new page by changing the URL in your browser in the address bar. So what currently looks like this: '''<nowiki>http://swisswiki.ch/index.php/'''Expats-in-Zurich-FAQ'''</nowiki>'''
 +
#* Will be changed to the title of the new page you wish to create and look like this: '''<nowiki>http://swisswiki.ch/index.php/'''The_new_page_you_wish_to_create'''</nowiki>'''
