[create-a-wiki] Move old descriptions
Drop the guide *wiki-preview.mdwn*. The content is now fully covered and updated in *create-a-wiki-preview.mdwn* and *create-a-wiki/additional.mdwn*. Also move the dated *create-a-wiki.mdwn* -> *create-a-wiki/create-a-wiki.mdwn*. Closing that content needs more attention.

-Taking the [Create a Wiki](/create-a-wiki) article as a starting point, this article describes how to set up preview of Friposts wiki.
-
-The basic idea is something like the following:
-
- . Bare Git Repository
- . git.fripost.org:fripost-wiki.git
- . |
- . |
- . Repository for Local Edits
- . ~/git/fripost/wiki
- . |
- . |
- . The Preview Ikiwiki Web Part
- . ~/public_html/fripost-wiki-preview
-
-Where *~/git/fripost/wiki* is a local git repository with remote
-tracking of the main bare wiki repository
-*git.fripost.org:fripost-wiki.git*. I define an alias command for
-recompilation of the local version of the. The local preview version is accessed
-by pointing the browser to
-*http\://localhost/~<name>/fripost-wiki-preview/*.
-
-First the basics. According to [Create a Wiki](/create-a-wiki) do the following:
-
-* Install and configure Git
-* Install and configure Apache 2
-* Install Ikiwiki
-
-For the Ikiwiki configuration question, answer them as follows
-
- wikiname: fripost-wiki-preview
- url: http://localhost/~<name>/lab-wiki
- srcdir: ~/git/fripost/wiki
- destdir: ~/public_html/fripost-wiki-preview
- settings: ~/public_html/fripost-wiki-preview/wiki.setup
-
-Where *<name>* is the local user name and *~/git/fripost/wiki* is where the local wiki Git repository. This will generate a configuration file: *~/public_html/fripost-wiki-preview/wiki.setup*. Generate the first issue:
-
- $ ikiwiki --setup ~/public_html/fripost-wiki-preview/wiki.setup
-
-For to preview local edits, run:
-
- $ ikiwiki --setup ~/public_html/fripost-wiki-preview/wiki.setup --refresh
-
-and point your browser to *http\://localhost/~<name>/fripost-wiki-preview/*.
-
-You can also create an alias for to refresh the preview command.
-
- $ alias fripost-wiki-preview-refresh='ikiwiki -setup /home/gustav/lab-wiki/fripost-wiki.setup -refresh'
-
-
-Public www locations (userdir)
-------------------
-
-For to be able to access `http://localhost/~user` the "userdir"
-functionality is needed. For Nginx, put the following in e.g.
-*/etc/nginx/sites-available/localhost*:
-
-```
-server {
- location ~ ^/~(.+?)(/.*)?$ {
- alias /home/$1/public_html$2;
- index index.html index.htm
- autoindex on;
- }
-}
-```
-
-Relative paths
---------------
-
-Many links on the Fripost wiki are absolute. That means that you
-sometimes will not be able to follow homepage page and wiki page links
-between your local preview wiki. For testing purposes, that can
-sometimes be necessary. The best strategy is to edit your */etc/hosts*
-table and make *fripost.org* and *wiki.fripost.org* point to
-*localhost*. Of course your web server need to be configured to serve
-those pages. This is my Nginx configuration:
-
- # fripost.org
- server {
- server_name fripost.org;
- location / {
- root /home/gustav/public_html/fripost-wiki/website;
- location /static { root /home/gustav/public_html/fripost-wiki; }
- }
- }
-
- # wiki.fripost.org
- server {
- server_name wiki.fripost.org;
- location / {
- root /home/gustav/public_html/fripost-wiki;
- }
- }
-
-You might experience strange effects from that the web-browser has
-cached DNS information. Search Internet for how to flush your
-browser's DNS cache.
