 ==Wiki Organization==
-In a MediaWiki, there's no strict page hierarchy. In other words, pages aren't organized into folders of folders. To loosely organize pages, we can create internal links on one page that will take you to another page. In this way, information is tightly connected, joined by links. Feel free to use internal links liberally.

Ideally, it would be nice to click on a PDF link that redirects us to a print-ready page that just shows the PDF like [https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=github.com/machineagency/jubilee/raw/master/frame/assembly_instructions/toolchanger_mechanism/toolchanger_lock_assembly_instructions.pdf this]. We can create this effect by modifying the Github link to get Google's PDF doc viewer to render it cleanly in a format that can be readily printed. To do this, prefix the github URL with the following:

 An additional [[Template:Sized-external-image-with-link|sized external image with link template]] is available that will automatically add a link to the source image and also adds an additional parameter (#3) to set the image float position (left, right, none). The default float position is "none" so the image will be centered if the third parameter is not included. If you only want a link to the image then do not include the third parameter (or set it to "none").

 ====PDFs hosted on Github====
-Links to PDFs hosted on Github will redirect to a github rendering of the PDF as a PNG image on Github's website. This isn't really ideal. As a workaround, we can modify the link to get Google's PDF doc viewer to render it cleanly in a format that can be readily printed. To do this, prefix the github URL with the following:
