Setting Up GitHub Wiki with Automated Updates

This guide will help you set up a GitHub wiki with automated updates using GitHub Actions.

1. Manually Create the Initial Wiki

Before setting up automation, you need to create the initial wiki manually:

1. Go to your GitHub repository
2. Click on the "Wiki" tab
3. Click "Create the first page"
4. Add some initial content (will be overwritten by automation later)
5. Click "Save Page"

This creates the basic wiki structure that GitHub Actions can later modify.

2. Configure GitHub Actions to Update Wiki Pages

By updating to the latest master (08/18)

3. Create a Personal Access Token (PAT) with repo permissions:

• Go to GitHub Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens
• Generate a new token with repo scope
• Add this token to your repository secrets as PERSONAL_TOKEN

4. Customize the Wiki Sidebar

To create a custom sidebar with navigation links:

1. In your wiki, create a file named _Sidebar.md or click create a customed sidebar
2. Insert the following settings or any other contents you would like to add.

- [Home](Home)
- [All Reports](Arxiv-Reports-Index)```
