=Migration Procedure= | |||
==Phase 1 - Text Migration:== | |||
Make sure all pages on the calontiri wikispace have been successfully migrated to this new wiki. I'm just worrying about text content at this point. Broken images and Categories will be dealt with in Phase 2. | |||
*Open: | |||
**http://scaheraldry.wikispaces.com/Names and/or | |||
**http://scaheraldry.wikispaces.com/Armory on the scaheraldry wikispace | |||
**(since Names and Armory are the bulk of the pages on the old wikispace). | |||
*Cross-reference with: | |||
**"[[Uncategorized Pages]]" and | |||
**[[:Category:Pages with broken file links]] | |||
**Since that's where the majority of the pages are conveniently listed | |||
**Open the migrated page on the new wiki to make sure it isn't just a blank page. | |||
