We're in alpha, (not done yet). Please help fix it up.

Why is this important?

Many NetworkWeavers have profiles on various social networking websites. We can link to our profiles on those sites, and find other NetworkWeavers that also use those sites. Please see also NetworkWeavers:SocialNetworking for instructions on how to identify yourself on those websites as a NetworkWeaver.

How do I it? (in 13 steps)

  1. Copy this WikiText to your personal page, where ever you want this section to appear on the page. We recommend putting it somewhere below the badges, either immediately below the badges, or below your photos and contact information.
  2. ==[[NetworkWeaver:SocialNetworkingSites]] links==
    {{Template:NetworkWeaver:Sites|SITENAME|profile=SITEURL}}
    
  3. Click Save page.

  4. Your page should now have a section like this:

    NetworkWeaver:SocialNetworkingSites links

  5. Take a look at NetworkWeaver:SocialNetworkingSites to see the social networking sites we have in the system so far. Please copy the name from there (only the part after the colon). For example, if you'd like to display link to your Omidyar.net profile, find NetworkWeaver:Omidyar.net and copy the Omidyar.net part. If the site you want to link to isn't on our list, go ahead and add it to your page anyway. Someone will add it to our list when we see your link.

  6. Paste the site name your copied on your page in place of "SITENAME". Your WikiText will now look like this:

  7. ==[[NetworkWeaver:SocialNetworkingSites]] links==
    {{Template:NetworkWeaver:Sites|Omidyar.net|profile=SITEURL}}
    
  8. Click Save page.

  9. The section on your page should now look like this:

    NetworkWeaver:SocialNetworkingSites links

  10. Now go to your own profile page on the site in question. On Omidyar.net, for example, click on your own name. Copy the URL of that profile. For example: http://www.omidyar.net/user/u387024026/

  11. Paste your profile URL on your page, in place of SITEURL. Your WikiText will now look like this:

  12. ==[[NetworkWeaver:SocialNetworkingSites]] links==
    {{Template:NetworkWeaver:Sites|Omidyar.net|profile=http://www.omidyar.net/user/u387024026/}}
    
  13. Click Save page.

  14. Your section should now have a section like this:

    NetworkWeaver:SocialNetworkingSites links

  15. Done!

  16. To add more profiles, simply repeat these steps as many time as necessary, using this as your starting point instead of the WikiText in step 1:

  17. {{Template:NetworkWeaver:Sites|SITENAME|profile=SITEURL}}
