Using the book creator
[edit]After the book creator has been enabled, the box as seen below is shown above each wiki page.
 |
- Add this page to your book
- Adds the currently viewed article (page) to your book.
- Show book
- Opens a new page which will show a list of all articles (pages) that you added to your book. On that page, you can change the order of the articles in your book and structure them using chapters. Further, you can download the books as a PDF or ODF, or order a printed book.
- Suggest pages
- This tool analyzes the current set of pages in your book and suggests articles that might be also relevant to the overall topic of your book. This tool allows to create books quickly.
- Disable
- This will disable the Book creator and delete your book (unless you saved it first).
Adding pages without visiting them
[edit]A quick way to add pages is to simply hover on a linked article. If you wait about one second, a small box will pop up with the message "Add linked wiki page to your book". Click on this link, and the linked article will be added to your book.

Adding whole categories
[edit]If you are viewing a category page, you can add all the pages in that category at once. The Add this page to your book link will have changed into Add this category to your book. Click on this new link, and all the articles in that category will be added to your book. Relevant categories may be found at the very bottom of Wikipedia articles. Categories can also be added by hovering category links.
