 If you've created a new page, the next job is to add a link to it to [[:sidebar|the sidebar page]]. You edit this page just like you would any other page.

Put it in the category you believe would be the one a new user would use to find the information on your page. If adding a new system page in particular, it will be automatically linked in the [[:systems|systems overview page]] (as long as you've used the correct shortname) and doesn't need to be manually added.

   * Pages linked to in the sidebar should use [[:batocera_wiki_code_snippets#in-links|internal links]] with the page's proper name as the display text. The page's proper name should use regular capitalization rules, not Camel Case like the page title is on the page itself.
   * New pages should also be added to the appropriate section in the [[:navigation|navigation page]] along with a laconic description (if applicable). This is to assist those new to the wiki navigating to the appropriate page.
