==Search for an existing article==
Before creating a page, be sure it does not exist yet on the wiki. Search for it in the search bar (shortcut is <code>/</code>). If the page already exist but you think people might search for it under a different name create a [[Help:Editing/Redirect | redirect]]. Consider also broadening you search to other articles that might include your subject as a section. It is often better to contribute to an existing article, and when a section becomes too big, move it to its own page.
==Create a page==
The best way to create a new page is to follow a red link from an existing page referring to your subject. Or creating this red link <code><nowiki>[[Name of the new page]]</nowiki></code> on that page. It's the best way to start because your article will already be linked to another and thus easier to find. The other way is to search for the wanted page in the search bar, you will be proposed to create it.

Namespaces on Mediawiki (the sofware that powers this wiki) allow for separation of content pages and administration pages. Namespaces are displayed as a prefix with a colon before the page name. Pages in the main/article namespace have no prefix. For example the page you are consulting right now is in the <code>Help:</code> namespace. Here are different things to consider before creating articles:

* Main/article namespace (no prefix): core articles of the wiki that are on design, research, the design department and so on.
 
* <code>Help:</code> : pages providing help using the wiki. If the page you want to create is about editing the wiki, add it at [[Help:Editing/Your page name]].

The design research community is vast and you will probably need to connect with it, its researchers and keep an eye on what is going on, calls for papers etc. This article goes over some ways to keep in touch with the different design research communities.
