Create new Content

Two Methods:

1. Just press New Page and fill accordingly (you can use trailing slashes in Title to imply a subfolder hierarchy like Foo/Bar). This way is preferred.
2. Clone the Wiki and work locally using the Git way.

Using New Page triggers a webhook that updates the index files and the sidebar. If you work locally and push via terminal this does not happen.

Look here for GitLab flavored Markdown.

Auto-Generated Content

Some Wiki content is automatically generated whenever the Wiki is updated by you. This currently affects the content between certain control sequences within the Home.md, <foldername>-Index.md and _sidebar.md files.
Any content outside the defined control sequences will remain, but changes within the are defined by the control sequences will be overwritten. Control sequences start with [//]: # and define a start and end point of an auto-generated section.
