All Tips

This page list all of the Tips that appear one-at-a-time on our Main Page.

1. Wikidelphia Resource Pages will sometimes be a great place for you to look. For example, the Food and Agriculture Resource Page includes a long list of Wikidelphia Categories covering a wide range on food, horticulture, agriculture, etc.

2. When you want to add some fun things to your personal calendar, come on back over to Wikidelphia and have a look-see at "Does-Event Calendar", our big collection of links to Wikidelphia pages that have event calendars! Many of the organizations and places on Wikidelphia have their own calendars, so pick some orgs you like the look of, and see if they have events you'd like to add to your calendar! When you get to each page, you'll find "Event Calendar" under the "Info" heading.

3. If you're planning a visit to Philly, or you've already arrived, you'll benefit from a look at our Category Is-Tourist Attraction. You may also wish to check out Is-Museum, Is-Restaurant, Does-Theatre, Is-Cultural Venue, Is-Arts Venue, Is-Music Venue, and Is-Historic Landmark.

4. Philadelphia has many more museums than we ever knew, until we found as many of them as we could for Wikidelphia. See all we have in the Is-Museum Category list. Most museums are also marked with Categories that are more specific, e.g. Is-Military Museum or Is-Historic House Museum.

5. Wikidelphia is a go-to site for volunteer opportunities. Under the Category Using_Volunteers, just look over the big list or organizations, and pick one you want to volunteer for. The organization's Wikidelphia page will probably have a direct link to its Volunteer page where you can inquire or apply.

6. When you do a search for something you already know the name of, there's a pretty good chance that you can just type in the acronym. For example, "FNC" will easily pull up the Federation of Neighborhood Centers.

7. Sometimes when you look at a Category, it has so many pages that you'd rather shrink the list before you look it over. That what Multi-Category Search (in the left sidebar of every page) is for! If you use it to do a search using two or more Categories, the results will be easier to deal with.
