Why is this important?

One way NetworkWeavers connect is by geography. This set of badges is for your location. Putting these badges on your page does two things.

  • First, it gives anyone looking at your page this information about you, where you live/work.
  • Second, it puts you into a category with other people who live/work in that same spot so you can find each other.

What will my page look like when I'm done?

Something like this (with your information, of course):


I live in 98122

I live in Seattle

I live in Washington

I live in United States

I live in Pacific Northwest

How do I do it? (in 5 easy steps)

  1. Copy this WikiText to your page, in the badge area.
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|MyPostalCode}}
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|MyCity}}
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|MyStateOrProvince}}
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|MyCountry}}
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|MyRegion}}
    
  2. Click Save page and your page should have new badges that look like this:

    I live in MyPostalCode

    I live in MyCity

    I live in MyStateOrProvince

    I live in MyCountry

    I live in MyRegion

  3. Now edit your page again and replace MyPostalCode with your postal code, MyCity with your city, etc., so that your WikiText looks something like this:
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|98122}}
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|Seattle}}
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|Washington}}
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|United States}}
    {{Badge:AsANetworkWeaverILiveIn|Pacific Northwest}}
    
  4. Click Save page.
  5. All done!
