There is a question at the bottom of the form to ask whether you want the CDs or not. You answer no and there is no form to fill your address, you answer yes and the form appears.

Re: [SFD-discuss] Problem in creating a team wiki page

by misheck mutuzana

Dear Fred, Iam writing from Zambia . My name is Misheck Mutuzana Team Leader for 2010/Africa/Zambia/Copperbelt Software Freedom Day. Iam also encountering the same problem that my colleague from Ethiopia is having. Each time i try to register my team for Software Freedom Day i always get a message telling me that: " The team wiki page you specified, http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2010/Africa/Zambia/Copperbelt, does not exist. Please create your team's wiki page first before submitting your registration. Iam worried that we won't get materials for Software Freedom Day on time if i do not register.

Let us guide you through the necessary steps: 1. You need to create a wiki account at http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/FrontPage?action=newaccount 2. Login 3. Now from the wiki front page (http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/ ) you follow the link that says "SFD 2010 <http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2010> - This is the central page to find or add a team worldwide! " Direct link is: http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2010 4. From there you go to your continent which is Africa: http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2010/Africa 5. Look for Ethiopia and... it doesn't exist yet! 6. Create you country: at the bottom of this page there is a text box where you simply type Ethiopia and it will create the page for you. 7. Now you're in edit mode for your country. You might want to replace "SFD @PAGE@" by "SFD 2010 Ethiopia" and eventually add a description of your country. One source that comes to my mind is wikipedia, just copy the introduction and that will be a good start. 8. Save the page. Do not forget to answer the question just below the save button! 9. You are now on your country page asking you to create a new City or Region. Same process, enter what suit best your event location, do the text change and add a bit of description. I guess you will chose Mek'ele here. 10. Save. Remember the question under the save button! 11. You're now on your City page. You can create your Team page. Save thing, there is a text box at the bottom of the page where you can just type in the Team name and validate: it will automatically create your team page. 12. Edit your page with all the details needed. 13. Go back to you city page and replace Team1 with your team name and add a link to your team page (which should be /2010/Africa/Ethiopia/Mek'ele/YourTeamName (YourTeamName is your real team name). Save again. You're done. Now in the registration form you will just have to enter Africa/Ethiopia/Mek'ele/YourTeamName and it will work. The process is a bit long because you're the first team in Ethiopia. However by following those steps you ensure people looking at the team list http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/CategoryTeam or at the Region list http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/CategoryRegion will find your city and your team. Also please do not remove the CategoryTeam tag from your team list: it is that which makes the listing automatic. I hope this was clear enough. Let us know if you're still having issues. Thanks.
