John Peel Wiki

Changes to the look of John Peel Wiki will take place in the near future due to a new skin being rolled out over Oct/Nov across Wikia. Please see the Wikia Staff Blog for further details. On this site, the changes will affect the navigation from the left menu, as well as introduce a fixed page width with narrower content space. Please be patient while adjustments are made for the switch to the new system.

UPDATE: As the change is now in force for some users, I have switched the navigation to the simplified one for the new system. Please check Navigation in the Help section if you can't find things. I also initially made small adjustments to the front page layout, but have now reverted to the old look until all users are on the new system.

COUNTDOWN: Just a reminder for people still using Monaco that the final switch to the new skin is due on Nov. 3. After that, it will no longer be offered as an option. Sorry. Nothing to do with me.

You can now add a short audio clip to any page of the John Peel Wiki.

Please see the examples on the following pages:

To add a clip to a page, please follow the instructions below.


Upload to archive.org[]

Get code[]

  • Once your upload is complete, the name of your clip will be the last part of the URL of the newly created page. Now substitute the end of the URL for JohnPeelSweetEatingGame in the following example:
<aoaudio>JohnPeelSweetEatingGame</aoaudio>

This code can be used to add a clip to an existing page of the John Peel Wiki or to a new page.


Add code to a page[]

To add a clip to an existing page

  • Open the page, then the editing window on by clicking the "Edit this page" tab in the blue bar at the top. Use your new code to add the clip, save the page - and that's it.

To make a new page for a clip

  • Create a new page by typing the title in the input box below. Please be sure to include Clip in brackets at the end of the title (eg, Sweet Eating Game (Clip)). In the editing window of your new page, give a brief introduction to your clip, add your new code, save the page - and you're finished.

Warning[]

There have been attempts to upload shows with music to archive.org by members of the Peel Newsgroup but these have quickly been deleted, presumably for copyright reasons. Spoken tracks appear to be OK.
