WikiMarkup

For those of you who are new to wiki markup or who have memory leakage.

[CheatSheet http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Markup_spec#The_Markup_Language]

Quickie:

Headers

Headers: top level header is created with = header =. Next level is ==another header==. The third level is, surprisingly enough, ===yet another header=== . And so on, up to sixth level. The table of contents is generated automagically.

Wikilinks

Square brackets:

  • External links with one pair of brackets: '[ ... ]'
  • Internal links with two pairs: ' ... '
    • For example: to create a link to mbti nebulous main page, you'd enter 'mbti nebulous main page'
    • Or, if you wanted to create a link to the wiki page about Keirsey system, you'd enter 'Keirsey system'
      • can't get the syntax to show up properly here, click edit to see how it's done, sorry.

lists

  • bulleted lists can be created with *
  • numbered lists: #
  • definition list: ;
  • these can be combined:
    • to create nested lists, for example **

formatting

apostrophes are used for formatting. two apostrophes creates italic. Three is bold. Five is combined bold and italic'.

signatures

Tildes create signatures. Three tildes are replaced with your username (or ip address if you're not logged in). Four tildes are replaced with username and the date. Five are replaced with the date. When in doubt, use four tildes.

misc stuff

redirect to another page can be done with the hash sign '#': #redirect or #REDIRECT followed by wikilink.

That's all for now I think. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask me ... after reading the manual. melan 08:13, 20 May 2007 (PDT)
