Revision as of 10:00, 31 July 2015

So, super basic info and links and code to copy and paste when you create a character page on the wiki.

Section Headings

Whenever you create multiple section headings within a wiki entry, the wiki will automagically create a little table of contents.

To create a section header, all you do is this:

== Section Heading Name Here ==

Sub headings

To make subheadings within a section you can use the following, which creates a bolded text with a slightly larger font than the rest of the body text.

=== Sub heading ===

Internal Links

To create a link to another page on the wiki, you put the name of the page within double square brackets, like so:

[[Page Name]]

You can leave the spaces in the page name.

Now, if the page has a super long name or you want to rename it/shorten it/whatever, use the pipe symbol after the page name, followed by what you want to be displayed.

[[Rick Roll|Interesting Page You should look at]]

If you want to have a link to a section with a page, the code is as follows:

[[Page Name#Section_within_page]]

If the page section title has spaces within it, you need to replace the spaces with underscores.

[[Page Name#Section_within_page]] Will work
[[Page Name#Section Name With Spaces]] won't work.

External Links

To link to a page outside our happy little wiki, you surround the url in a set of single brackets. You can name that link if you include the name/whatever you want to call it within the brackets, after the url. This is a named link.

Wikipedia

If you just include the url between the brackets, this is an unnamed url and will appear as a [number] on the page.

Formatting Text

Indenting text

You can use : at the start of a line to indent text.

:Each colon at the start of a line
::causes the line to be indented by three more character positions.
:::(The indentation persists
so long as no carriage return or line break is used.)
:::Repeat the indentation at any line break.
::::Use an extra colon for each response.
:::::And so forth ...
::::::And so on ...

Turns into:

Each colon at the start of a line
causes the line to be indented by three more character positions.
(The indentation persists

so long as no carriage return or line break is used.)

Repeat the indentation at any line break.
Use an extra colon for each response.
And so forth ...
And so on ...

Lists

An asterisk at the start of the line will create an unordered list. Multiple asterisks at the start of the line will create nested lists.

* Item
* Next item
** nested list
** nested list

Gives you

  • Item
  • Next item
    • nested list
    • nested list

Ordered lists are the same, except for the hashtag/pound/octothorpe symbol instead of the asterisk.

  1. Item
  2. Next Item
    1. Nested List
      1. Real deep, yo.
        1. Birds hang out here

Font formatting

To italicize text, put two consecutive apostrophes on each side of it.

''italicize text''

Three apostrophes each side will bold the text.

'''bold the text'''

Five consecutive apostrophes on each side (two for italics plus three for bold) produces bold italics.

'''''bold italics'''''

Italic and bold formatting only works correctly within a single line.

Image Uploading

If you are logged in, you should be able to upload images to display on your character pages. Just click the Upload file link in the tools section on the left side of the page.

Reference

This is pretty much mostly copied from the Wiki markup, found here.
