Wikibase cloud create wiki form

Create a new Wikibase instance

Click the Create new wiki button on the dashboard page to create a new instance of Wikibase.

Seitenname

Your site's name, or title, will appear on every page of your Wikibase. You can easily change this later.

For those familiar with MediaWiki configuration files: this option sets $wgSitename.

Seitendomäne

Your site's domain is the web address where your site can be reached. Choose how your site will look in a browser's URL bar.

Du hast zwei Möglichkeiten:

• Free subdomain: You can choose a subdomain, the portion of the site address before "wikibase.cloud". Die gesamte Domäne, inklusive ".wikibase.cloud" muss mindestens 20 Zeichen haben.

Beispiel: my-data-repository.wikibase.cloud

• Custom domain: Alternatively, you can use a domain name that you control.

To use a custom domain, you will need to add to the domain's DNS a CNAME record that points to sites-1.dyna.wikibase.cloud.

Your user

Choose a username that will serve as your Wikibase's first user, an administrator. Once you have submitted this form, check your email to find login details for this user.

Nutzungsbedingungen

Read the Terms of Use. If you agree to them, check the box to the left.

Submit the form

Click Create wiki. Once the form has been successfully submitted, you will see the settings page for your new wiki.

Setup & Troubleshooting

• Add common issues users face when setting up their Wikibase and how to resolve them (e.g., DNS propagation delays, login issues).
• Provide links to official Wikibase.cloud documentation or forums for help.
