Simply make a [[link]] to the name of the learning project (learning projects are independent pages in the [[Wikiversity:Namespaces|main namespace]]) and start writing! We suggest the use of the [[Template:Learning project boilerplate|learning project template]] (use "subst:Learning project boilerplate" on the new page, inside the double curved brackets <nowiki>{{}}</nowiki>).
