Manor Fields Testing Area 2[edit | edit source]

Here is example of how to link to one of our other sandbox pages.

Note that although the pupil pair groups can cross-link to other groups' sandbox pages like this, when all of the sections are copied across to create one book on the Tundra, then all those link references will need to be re-edited. In the final document, which will be in one page, those links are simple jumps within the page using the #Header_name technique - this is described in the References section of the Kanahabita sandbox page.

Final note for now: the approval process for creating an official Wikijunior book looks somewhat onerous and is described here. For now the objectives of the ICT project can be met by using the sandboxes for each pair group and then combining into one sandbox to complete the project.

How to insert images[edit | edit source]

Note: search for images only from the following places:

  • Wikimedia Commons
  • Wikibooks

When you find an image you like then click it, if it doesn't open in the media viewer automatically then select 'Open in Media Viewer'. Scroll down and click the icon that looks like an arrow turning right from a square, it's called "Share or embed this file". Now select "Embed" tab and "Wikitext" tab. Select the size from drop-down list, then copy and paste the file reference from the top box into the page you are editing. You can then alter:

  • Size (width in px or thumbnail)
  • Alignment (left, right or centre with text wrapping or 'none' to prevent text wrapping around the image)
  • Caption

The above alterations are achieved by editing the file reference within the square brackets, see the Inserting Images guide.

Example of directing to section of a page, in this case the Animal section of this test page[edit | edit source]

The way to do above is to use the "Link" tool, paste in the URL of the page you want to refer to, then append #Heading_name where Heading_name is the section within the page you want to jump to. Look at the above link in 'Edit' to see the Wiki Markup Code.

NARWHALES[edit | edit source]

a narwhal is like a cross between a whale and a unicorn with it's long,spiralled tusk coming from it's head. Males most commonly have tusks. Some have two yet others have none. The tusk, which can grow up to 10 feet, is actually an enlarged tooth. Narwhals tusks have sensory capability, with up to 10 million nerve endings inside. The tusk may also play a role in the ways they exert dominance.

How To Build An Igloo[edit | edit source]

Step 1. look for a gentle slope in the terrain, building it this way saves valuable time and energy (avoid free-standing mounds).

Step 2. Then you need to prepare your ice by digging a long trench. Make it as deep as you want your ice blocks to be. Position the snow from the trench on to one side of the trench and cut the snow into blocks.

Step 3. Dig an entrance to your trench. If you're working on a slope, dig a horizontal trench into the slope about two foot wide. If not, dig on a slope that is about ten degrees steep. be careful not to hit dirt.

Step 4. Did down to the sleeping platforms,dig as far down as possible and make sure is higher than the entrance.

Step 5. Level the top of the dugout igloo walls if necessary. If the top of the snow is sloped, level it out in stages.

Step 6. Temporarily block the entrance trench with snow blocks. Curve some snow blocks over the top to create the entrance hall. Doing it this way will reduce the risk of the entrance tunnel collapsing.

Step 7. Lay out the first ring of blocks. Because it's a circle, you must fill in the triangular gaps between the blocks with snow.

Step 8. Repeat step 7 on top. Don't forget to stagger the blocks like bricks.

Step 9. keep stacking the blocks. Use smaller blocks the higher you go.

Step 10. The 'cap hole' block must be inserted. cut the cap hole should be a bit larger than the hole that is on the top of the igloo. If you can, try and have more than one person lift it onto the top of the igloo.

Step 11. Cut an entranceway in the trench. Do not merely remove the blocks and make sure to slice an arch into your blocks which will create a strong structure.

Step 12. Finish the interior walls by smoothing the dome as much as possible. carve longitude grooves inside to prevent melted snow falling on you and prevent you getting hyperthermia.

Step 13. Build interior rooms (optional)

Step 14. Partially block the entrance to prevent snow falling in the entrance trench. don't block it completely or you will be suffocated.

Final product

Beware of narwhales, (a type of sea animal) they may attack if close to water.
