Halaman ini memperlihatkan kepada Anda bagaimana menciptakan sebuah buku dari artikel-artikel Wikipedia dalam tiga langkah. Buku dapat diciptakan dalam bentuk PDF atau dipesan untuk dicetak pada website PediaPress .

Panduan lanngkah demi langkah

Fig.1 - the portlet

Langkah 1 - Menciptakan buku dari koleksi artikel-artikel

Menu koleksi, entitled "Create a book", can be seen on the left hand side of the browser screen towards the bottom. It contains two links by default: "Add wiki page" and "Books help". (See Fig 1).

By clicking on the "Add wiki page" link, the current page being viewed is added to the collection. To add more pages you must navigate to the next required page and click the "Add wiki page" link again. You can also add all pages in a category with one click. The number of pages in the book is shown in the menu on the left and is updated automatically.

Step 2 - The book title

Once all the desired pages have been added, click the "Show book" button to review your book. At this time you can add an optional title to your book. Furthermore at this point you can change the order of the wiki pages in the book (see details of how to do this in the Advanced functionality section).

Step 3 - Download or order a printed copy of your book

The finished book can be downloaded or ordered as a bound book. You can download the book, in PDF and OpenDocument format (viewable using OpenOffice.org software), by clicking the "Download" button (see Fig 3). To order the book as a bound book click the "Order book from PediaPress" button. Further information about printed books can be found in the FAQ.

Advanced Functions

Changing the order of wiki pages

To change the order of wiki pages in your book simply move the pages in the list entitled "Your Book". To do so, hover over the page title to move, click and drag it to the new location. Release the mouse button to finish moving the page to its new location. You can also automatically sort the book into alphabetical order.

Saving and sharing your book with others

To save your book you must have a registered account on Wikipedia (see Why create an account? for details on how to create an account). You can save your book on the "Book" page which can be reached by clicking the "Show book" link in the menu on the left hand side. In the "Save and share your book" section choose one of the location options and then provide a title for the book collection. It will then be saved by clicking the "Save book" button.

Further information

Further information on the books feature can be found on the for experts page. This page explains how the presentation of books can be changed and how to process saved books at a later date.

Printed books from PediaPress

By clicking the "Order book from PediaPress" button, your collection of wiki articles can be printed as a bound book. You will be forwarded to the website of PediaPress, a service that prints books based on wiki content. Further information about the printed books, including the cost and format can be found on the FAQ page.

In 2007 the Wikimedia Foundation and PediaPress agreed upon a long term partnership aimed to improve the availability of Wikipedia and other wiki based project content, in the form of high quality print products or text documents in the OpenDocument format.
