Welcome to WikiMACS, the (un)official wiki for all things WMACS-summer camp related!
WMACS stands for the Washington Metropolitan Association of Chinese Schools. WMACS hosts a week-long residential camp (of the same name) that has been held at Frostburg State University since 1997. Kids that attend this camp range from ages 7 to 17. What started out as a volleyball camp has evolved into a Chinese Culture camp where legendary attendees like Jeffrey Ian Chen, June Liang, and Kevin Fang have touched the hearts of hundreds of camp-goers. If you have taken part in this camp, please feel free to add anything you might remember about camp. This wiki was set up to keep the great memories and moments of camp alive.
We're just getting started, so there aren't too many entries yet.
What YOU need to do: Sign up for an account and start adding entries!
We hope to eventually have a page for every camper, counselor, inside joke, Frostburg classroom...you name it! The best part is YOU (yes you!) can create a page for anything! But first you must create an account to create or edit entries. Go to "Sign in/create account" in the top right to get started! Also, if you have anything to add to existing entries, please feel free to do so. Just make sure you leave what's already there, unless you're making a correction!
Please, no profanity, vandalism, or slurs and epithets, racial or otherwise. Also, please try to write as impartially and with as much detail as you can. This isn't just for us, it's for us to tell other people about us too!
Guidelines: We hate to set up rules for adding entries, but we want to keep this wikimacs as linked and easy to traverse as possible. So here are a few things we'd like you to remember to do when adding a new entry so that there can be less future editing:
- Add your entry to a Category.
- Make as many Internal Links as you think exist.
- When adding an entry about a person or yourself, be sure not to put up any personal information that you wouldn't want a stranger to see.
Hints:
- Check out the Wikipedia tutorial Here!
- To create a new entry, change the URL to editthis.info/wikimacs/(name of your new entry), then hit edit.
- Blue links mean a page exists, red links mean they don't. You can edit a page by clicking "edit" at the top. If you follow a red link, it will take you straight to the edit screen for that page, letting you create it by writing the first version!
- Put double square brackets (like these [[ ]]) around a word or phrase to link it to an internal WikiMACS page. Add |{word or phrase} if you want another word or phrase to appear as the text. For example, if I want to link to Cindy Yu's page, but only want it to say "Cindy," I would do this: Cindy (edit the main page and check the formatting to see how I did it)
- To add an entry to a category, add this snippet to the end of the entry: [[Category:{name of category}]]
- Put [{URL, including http...} {text you want to appear}] to link to an external (non-WikiMACS) page, such as Google (again, check the formatting to see how I did it!).
- See sample pages for help with coding by clicking "edit"
Sample pages: O_RLY, YA_RLY, NO_WAI, Barry Huang, Quentin Tai, WMACS Chatroom
