Welcome!
Hi Nanaimobar, welcome to MyWikiBiz. We're happy that you've taken the steps to become a member of our site. MyWikiBiz is a directory where any person, any company, any product, or any thing can author their own legacy. We seek to provide the space for 265 million entities. Our registered editors like you have generated over 60,000 pages so far -- help keep that number growing with an article about yourself, your business, your industry, your favorite product, hobby, or organization. Since 2008, MyWikiBiz.com has served up over 1 million page views. Get started authoring your legacy today!
Helpful tips
Here are some tips on how to create a Directory listing and take advantage of the semantic web features we have in place:
- You may write as an opinionated advocate in the Directory -- neutral view is not required. You can sell products, promote videos, upload documents, even host your own Google AdSense ads. This auto-fill form will guide you through creating a very basic directory listing right now.
- Because MyWikiBiz supports Semantic Web technology, search engine results are highly optimized. Internal searches can also be performed that wouldn't be possible on Google, MySpace, or Wikipedia.
A few favorite pages that might help acquaint a new user with the possibilities are found among the Demonstration links, or in these articles written by independent reviewers.

Listing
Hi Nanaimobar, can you create Directory:Punzhu Puzzles? Just copy/paste over everything from Punzhu Puzzles and then we'll delete the entry. (Main space is reserved for NPOV.) Btw, to run an ASK query, just copy the code over from Portal:Information and make changes as required. Also, there's a tag within the infobox that handles legal names, which would be perfect for Summerfield’s Limited. Snerfling 14:56, 28 January 2007 (PST)
- Hi Snerfling,
- I've created the Directory, without the code from Portal Information as I was unsure of changes to make and didn't want to mess up anything else. I will review that when I am more sure of what I'm doing. For the tag for legal names that you mentioned, do I just copy and past everything in the Infobox_Company code section and paste that in the top of my Directory article? --Nanaimobar 15:50, 28 January 2007 (PST)
contact = [[Legal_Name:=Karl Nagel & Co., LLC|[[Directory:Karl Nagel Co.|Karl Nagel & Co., LLC]]]] <br>[[Address:=PO Box 7752]]<br>Huntington Beach, [[State_Code:=CA]] [[Country_Code:=US]] [[Zip:=92615]]-[[Plus4:=1234]]<br>[[Phone:=714.520.1667]] <br>[[Web:=www.centiare.com|[http://www.centiare.com www.centiare.com]]] [[Email:=info@centiare.com|[mailto:info@centiare.com Mail]]]| reference = [[Year End]]: [[Year End:=1231|12/31]]<br>[[DUNS]]: [[DUNS:=95-123456]]<br>[[NAICS]]: [[NAICS_Code1:=51811]]<br>[[Entity Type|Entity]]: [[Entity_Type:=LLC|[[LLC]]]]<br>[[Attribute:Region|Region]]: [[Region1:=Orange County|[[Directory:Orange County|The OC]]]]<br>[[Latitude]]: [[Latitude:=33.6574|33°39'26.64"]]<br>[[Longitude]]: [[Longitude:=-117.968|-117°58'4.8"]]
Infobox Company
Hi, Snerfling, I modified code from Directory:Ceniare and added it to my Directory but I now have a dash-lined box around the coding at the top of my page. I obviously have done something wrong and am retiring from computer for the night. I will take another look at it in morning with a fresh view. Thanks for all your help, you've been great.
- Oops, I apologize for not being more clear. Centiare templates start/end with double curly braces like this {{ }}. The full infobox company template can be found at Template:Infobox_Company and looks like this:
{{Infobox Company
| company_name =
| company_logo =
| company_slogan =
| company_type =
| foundation =
| founder =
| location =
| key_people =
| industry =
| products =
| revenue =
| operating_income =
| net_income =
| num_employees =
| parent =
| subsid =
| owner =
| contact =
| reference =
| footnotes =
}}
- The easiest way to use infoboxes (or anything else, really), is to use a pre-loaded one like Centiare's, or the ones used at the Add a listing facility, then go back and edit as necessary with your actual information. (Note how much information can be input within any section of the infobox?) By the way, the <pre> tag is how you get Centiare to display templates/code, rather than actually run them.

Thanks, Snerfling. I now have a proper box with information. One last question: How do I add Punzhu Puzzles to the Sector Listings table on the Portal:Information number 51-Information page? The code on the 51-Information page appears to automatically grab the appropriate data and insert it into the table. Am I missing some special code on my Directory page? --Nanaimobar 09:31, 29 January 2007 (PST)
