  1. go to this page, select "edit" and copy all of the contents (highlight and CTRL-C). Then come back here.
  2. in your browser's address bar above, where it says "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Ryan_McGrady/spring2014/com257/workshop1" add to the end "/yourusername" without quotes and substituting your Wikipedia username for "yourusername." The effect is to create a new subpage of this one. For example, if your username is Wikiz4eva, you would visit "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Ryan_McGrady/spring2014/com257/workshop1/Wikiz4eva".
  3. go to that page and paste the text you copied in step one into the big edit box. Click "save page" at the bottom.
