This is the '''cast page template'''. It is automatically preloaded into new cast pages when contributors click red links from the [[Casts]] index.

To preload into a new page manually, use a URL like:

<code>?action=edit&preload=Template:Cast_template</code>

==Editing this template==

Anything inside <code><nowiki><includeonly></nowiki></code> is what gets inserted into new pages. Anything inside <code><nowiki><noinclude></nowiki></code> (like this section) is only shown on the template page itself.

How to upload photos

2026-05-25T14:26:29Z

Tech: Initial version

Adding photos to a page is straightforward. The wiki automatically optimizes images for you, so don't worry about file size or format — just upload what you have.

== Step 1 — Upload the photo ==

# Click '''Upload file''' in the left sidebar (under Tools)
# Choose your file
# Give it a meaningful name (e.g. "Cast 1988E group photo Munich.jpg")
# Optionally add a description
# Click '''Upload file'''

'''Supported formats:''' JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, SVG.

== Step 2 — Insert into a page ==

# Edit the page where you want the photo
# Place your cursor where the photo should appear
# Use the '''Insert image''' button in the toolbar (visual editor), or in wikitext type:
#: <code><nowiki>[[File:Your-file-name.jpg|thumb|Your caption here]]</nowiki></code>
# Save the page

== Image sizing — don't worry about it ==

You can upload full-resolution photos straight from your phone or camera. MediaWiki automatically generates thumbnails at appropriate sizes for display, while keeping the full-size original safe.

== Photo guidelines ==

* '''Only upload photos you own''' or have clear permission to share
* '''Consider others''' — if a photo includes other cast members, use your judgment about whether they'd be comfortable with it appearing here
* '''Add a caption''' describing what the photo shows (year, location, names if known)
* '''Photos with text''' (like scanned program covers) are very welcome — they're part of the historical record

== Uploading many photos ==

If you have a whole album or scanned collection to add, [https://uwpiaa.org/contact/ contact an admin]. We can help you upload in bulk rather than one at a time.

== Removing or replacing a photo ==

To replace a photo with a newer version, go to the file's page (click the photo) and use the '''Upload a new version of this file''' link. The old version is kept in history.

''Questions? [https://uwpiaa.org/contact/ Contact the admin team].''

Finding alumni

2026-05-25T14:25:03Z

Tech: Updated link for welcom

This wiki documents UWP cast history — tour dates, countries visited, photos, and memories — organized by cast. Alumni names may appear in the context of the casts they were part of, but only as part of historical record-keeping.

There is no central alumni directory and no way to look people up by name.

== Why no directory or name search? ==

* '''Privacy and GDPR''' — A central list or name search makes alumni information easy to scrape and reuse. Names appearing in cast context — alongside tour stories and group photos — are a normal part of historical record-keeping. A searchable directory is something different and we deliberately don't offer it.
* '''Community trust''' — Alumni shared their time with UWP, not with a public database.

== What's allowed on cast pages ==

* '''Names''' of cast members, staff, and crew (first and last, maiden names, nicknames)
* '''Tour facts''' — dates, locations, songs performed, anecdotes
* '''Photos''' — group shots, performance photos, scanned programs
* '''Memories and stories'''

== What is not allowed ==

* Email addresses
* Phone numbers
* Home addresses
* Social media handles or usernames
* Anything else that would let a stranger contact a person directly

== Browse cast history ==

See [[Casts|Casts by year]] to find a specific cast.

== Official UWP / UWPIAA records ==

This wiki is a '''community-built history project'''. For official membership records or to update your contact details, visit [https://uwpiaa.org/welcome UWPIAA].

Guidelines

2026-05-25T14:23:22Z

Tech: Initial revision

This wiki is built by alumni, for alumni. A few simple rules keep it useful and welcoming for everyone.

== Content ==

* '''Be factual where possible.''' If something is a personal memory or uncertain, say so (e.g. "I think we were in Munich around March…").
* '''Incomplete is okay.''' A page with only three facts is better than no page at all. Others will add to it over time.
* '''Keep it respectful.''' This is a community record. Avoid content that would embarrass or hurt fellow alumni.
* '''No contact details.''' Never add email addresses, phone numbers, home addresses, or social media handles for anyone — yours or someone else's. Names (including last names) are fine on cast pages.

== Editing others' work ==

* You're welcome to add to, correct, or improve any page.
* Don't remove content someone else added unless it's clearly wrong — instead, add a note explaining the discrepancy.
* If you have a dispute about page content, [https://uwpiaa.org/contact/ contact an admin] rather than editing back and forth.

== Photos ==

* Only upload photos you own or have permission to share.
* If a photo includes other people, use your judgment about whether they'd be comfortable with it being here.
* See [[How to upload photos]] for the technical steps.

== What happens if guidelines aren't followed? ==

Admins may edit or remove content that doesn't meet these guidelines. For serious or repeated issues, account access may be restricted. We'd always rather talk it through first — [https://uwpiaa.org/contact/ reach out] if there's a concern.

Cast naming convention

2026-05-25T14:22:34Z

Tech: Initial version

Consistent page names make the wiki searchable and organized. Please follow this format when creating a new cast page.

== The format ==

Cast pages should be named using the format '''[Year][Letter]''', with no spaces:

* 1965A
* 1988E
* 2023A

This matches the cast naming used in official UWP records.

== Page title ==

When you create a page in MediaWiki, the page name '''is''' the title. So if you create a page called "1988E", that's both the URL and the displayed title.

Use the format above exactly — no "Cast" prefix, no spaces.

== Special cases ==

A few casts used non-standard naming:

* '''2004 Fall'''
* '''2005 Spring''' and '''2005 Fall'''

Use those names as-is.

== What if I'm not sure of the letter? ==

If you're uncertain which letter your cast was, you can either:

* Check the [[Casts|Casts by year]] index to see what's listed
* [https://uwpiaa.org/contact/ Contact an admin] to confirm

Don't create a page with a wrong or made-up letter — it makes cleanup harder later.

== What if a page already exists? ==

Great — edit it instead of creating a new one. See [[How to edit a page]].

How to use this wiki

2026-05-25T14:21:16Z

Tech: Initial version

This wiki runs on '''MediaWiki''' — the same software that powers Wikipedia. You don't need to know anything about it; this guide covers everything you need.

== What is a wiki? ==

A wiki is a website where many people can add and edit pages. Think of it like a shared document, except it's organized like a website with its own pages, links, and history. Wikipedia is the most famous example.

This wiki is specifically for Up With People alumni to document cast history. Pages cover:

* Casts organized by year and letter
* Tour dates and countries visited
* Photos, stories, and memories

Anyone with an approved account can contribute.

== Getting an account ==

Reading the wiki is open to everyone — no account needed. To add or edit pages, you'll need an account.

Due to spam and AI-generated abuse, accounts are manually approved. Please [https://uwpiaa.org/contact/ contact the admin team] and let us know you'd like to contribute. Once your account is approved, you're free to add and edit pages — your changes go live immediately.

Sorry for the extra step — it's the only way we can keep the wiki honest.

== Navigating the wiki ==

* The '''left sidebar''' lists main sections and tools
* Links in '''blue''' take you to other pages in the wiki
* Links shown in '''red''' are pages that haven't been written yet

== Reading a page ==

Pages are just text with formatting. Nothing to install or click through. If you see something that looks wrong or incomplete, you can edit it — see [[How to edit a page]].

How to edit a page

2026-05-25T14:20:03Z

Tech: Initial Revision

Editing an existing page is even easier than creating one.

== Step 1 — Find the page ==

Browse to the page you want to edit. You can find cast pages under [[Casts|Casts by year]].

== Step 2 — Click "Edit" ==

While logged in, you'll see an '''Edit''' tab near the top of the page (next to "Read" and "View history"). Click it.

If you see '''Edit source''' instead, that's the wikitext editor. Both work — the visual editor is friendlier for non-technical users.

> Don't see an Edit tab? Make sure you're logged in. If you are and still don't see it, [https://uwpiaa.org/contact/ contact an admin] — your account may need editing permissions.

== Step 3 — Make your changes ==

The visual editor works like a basic word processor. You can use the buttons along the top to:

* Bold or italicize text
* Add headings, bullet points, and numbered lists
* Insert links and images
* Add tables

Just click into the text and start typing. No special formatting knowledge needed.

== Step 4 — Save ==

Click '''Save changes''' (top right) when you're done. Your changes go live immediately.

You can optionally add a short summary of what you changed in the "Edit summary" box — this helps other contributors understand the page history.

== Can I see what changed? ==

Yes. Every page has a '''View history''' tab at the top. You can see every past version and who made each change. Nothing is ever permanently lost.

== What if I accidentally mess something up? ==

Don't worry — you can revert to any previous version from the View history tab. Just click the timestamp of the version you want to restore, then edit and save.

If something major went wrong, [https://uwpiaa.org/contact/ let us know] and an admin can help.

How to add a page

2026-05-25T14:19:27Z

Tech: Initial Version

{{TOC right}}

<div style="background:#fff8e1; border-left:3px solid #f0b400; padding:10px 14px; margin:1rem 0;">'''Most of the time you don't need to add a new page — you need to edit an existing one.''' Cast pages and help pages mostly already exist. Check first:

* For a cast year: see [[Casts|Casts by year]] — if your cast is listed, click through and edit it instead. See [[How to edit a page]].
* For help, guidelines, or how-tos: browse the existing pages.

Only create a new page if what you need really doesn't exist yet.</div>

This guide walks you through creating a new page from scratch. The whole process takes about 5 minutes.

== Before you start ==

* You need to be '''logged in''' — see [[How to use this wiki]] if you don't have an account yet
* Confirm the page doesn't already exist — browse first
* For a new cast, have a look at the [[Cast page template]] so you know what sections to include

== Step 1 — Search for the page name ==

The easiest way to create a page in MediaWiki is to first search for it. If it doesn't exist, MediaWiki offers a link to create it.

# Type your desired page name into the '''search bar''' at the top right (e.g. "1988E" or "Cast E 1988")
# Press Enter
# You'll see "There were no results matching the query" with a '''red link to create the page'''
# Click that red link to start editing

== Step 2 — Add your content ==

Copy the content from the [[Cast page template]] and paste it into the editor. Then fill in what you know.

'''Don't worry if some sections are empty.''' It's fine to publish a page that says "Tour dates unknown" or "Cast list incomplete." Other alumni can add to it later.

At minimum, try to include:

* The cast letter and year
* Any tour dates or countries you remember

== Step 3 — Save ==

When you're done, click '''Save changes'''. Your page goes live immediately. If you make a mistake, you can edit again or roll back to a previous version from the page history.

== What happens after you save? ==

The page is live right away. Other alumni can now find it, add to it, or correct anything.

== Naming your cast page ==

See [[Cast naming convention]] for the full guide. Short version: use the format like "1988E" or "1965A".
