check mark on <strong>the</strong> list. If, during processing, it becomes apparent<br />

that an item to be checked off is missing, it must be added to <strong>the</strong> actual<br />

list as well as <strong>the</strong> template. This ensures that <strong>the</strong> information<br />

will remain intact for subsequent information booths.<br />

Literature Database<br />

Problem: Now that <strong>the</strong> tribal initiative has performed extensive research<br />

and ga<strong>the</strong>red a good deal of material on <strong>the</strong> use of fire, a fair<br />

amount of disorder reigns. The wiki will be employed to counteract<br />

that phenomenon and organize <strong>the</strong> articles.<br />

Solution: The data must be saved in <strong>the</strong> wiki in such a way that it<br />

can be found again easily. A certain degree of discipline is necessary<br />

(unfortunately not one of <strong>the</strong> tribal initiative's strong points); conventions<br />

must be established and, above all, observed. This especially<br />

applies to <strong>the</strong> selection of a title. Since it should be as explicit<br />

as possible, it should only contain <strong>the</strong> title of <strong>the</strong> work, in its entirety,<br />

if possible. The author, year, publisher and a few keywords<br />

are set up as categories. Here, you can make life easier for normal<br />

users by using a template that displays this information in a uniform<br />

way:<br />

{|<br />

| Author<br />

| {{{author}}} [[category:{{{author}}}]]<br />

|-<br />

| Year<br />

| {{{year}}} [[category:{{{year}}}]]<br />

|-<br />

| Publisher<br />

| {{{publisher}}} ↵<br />

[[category:{{{publisher}}}]]<br />

|-<br />

| Keyword 1<br />

| {{{keyw1}}} [[category:{{{keyw1}}}]]<br />

|-<br />

| Keyword 2<br />

| {{{keyw2}}} [[category:{{{keyw2}}}]]<br />
