Thank-you, Sam!

There used to be a boilerplate that could be selected from a dropdown box after creating a page, but for some reason, it is now missing. We'll have look into bringing back that functionality.

Those directions are at https://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/index.php?title=Contribute_to_this_Wiki#What_information_should_be_on_the_page_for_my_Bike_Collective_or_Bicycle_Organization?

But now, after creating a link for your collective on the Community_Bicycle_Organizations page, simply click on that link, and copy/paste the template shown on https://www.bikecollectives.org/wiki/Template:Community_Bicycle_Organization/doc into the new page, and fill in information about your organization in the template.

Howdy Bobby,

That table is automatically created by pulling information from an individual bike collectives' page in the Wiki.

Start by finding your country on the following page and then creating a new page for your collective within the proper state/province/region. Copy a template from another collective that has a nice setup so that the proper tags are in there which will then automatically populate the info to that table.

The list is created using something called "Cargo Query" (don't ask me what that means, I just logically stopped and figured this out while trying to answer your question). You can learn what the different info that is displayed on it by looking at the "shop_info" section at the bottom of this page:

You're welcome to copy the text from our shop to use in setting up your own shop if you'd like:

Cheers,
