Just add it to the list on the index page, for whatever index it is you want to add it to.
Also, if you want help finding appropriate indexes, head over here.

Check out my fanfiction!Seems like you read too far down the help page, ~Maxiboy136. Only the top two points matter.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanBut I don't understand the two top points.
Just add a working link to the page you want to index after a bullet in the bulleted list on the index.
See for example, the various links on Young Adult Literature.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanWhat if it's a YMMV page, such as Awesome?
Well, if you want to index an Awesome page on, say, a Fan Fic, you use Awesome.Fan Fic. Ditto for Awesome.Literature when indexing the Awesome page of a book.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanIs there an Awseome Music.Music index?

Awesome.Literature is indexed on page SugarWiki.Moment Of Awesome, which shows us that yes, there is a Awesome.Music page.

Link to TRS threads in project mode here.Ok, so what's the first thing I do?
What I said in post #5 - add a bullet point with the page you want to index.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanAdd the bullet point to what?
To the index page. If it's for example a trope you want on the Fanfic Tropes index, you go to that page, edit it, and place a link to your trope on Fanfic Tropes, just like all other tropes listed there. Same goes for a work on an index related to that. Just add it to the index page.

Check out my fanfiction!Well I've made an AwesomeMusic page for a band. What is the index page to add it to?
edited 23rd Jun '14 8:48:27 AM by Maxiboy136
AwesomeMusic.Music. Wonder if there is some way to make the first bullet point of How Indexing Works clearer, though.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanBut I've already got a bullet point on that page. What's happened?
See the "by the way" note on the indexing page.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanEdit: Null-edited the wrong page.
(Also, time stamps seem wonky for me, for some reason.)

Check out my fanfiction!Thanks for your help!
So what exactly happened there?
If the page you want on the index doesn't exist by the time you add the page on the index, it doesn't register on the page as indexed. So if you do any edit on the index page note , it recognises that the page is there when it updates, and registers it properly. Or something close to it; I don't know what the actual code says.
I missed the time on the edits, so I thought the order was correct, but otherwise I tend to let tropers do the fixes themselves so they can learn from it better.

Check out my fanfiction!Ok. I think I get it...
I need to index a page, but the page about indexing isn't particularly easy to understand or apply to certain situation.
So I've created a page and I need to index it. What do I do first and how do I go from there?
