How to write for wiki

From Chapter 1 WIKI

Wikis are an amazing way to hold information, and making them visually pleasing is not a task to be done lightly. Not that it's difficult, it's just tedious. All of these have to be done in edit mode.

Contents 1 Heading 2 1.1 Heading 3 2 formatting 3 lists 4 indent 5 links 6 media 7 external help

[edit] Heading 2

To make some thing like the text above, place two equal signs (==) before and after the text. This is for making sections of an article, or starting a conversation.

[edit] Heading 3

To make some thing like the text above, place three equal signs (===) before and after the text. This is for making subsections of a section.

[edit] formatting

• Bold - to make some thing bold, place three single quotes (') before and after the text.
• Italicize - to make some thing italics, place two single quotes (') before and after the text.

[edit] lists

• to make a bulleted list, uses asterix (*) at the beginning of a sentence or paragraph.

1. to make a number list, use the pound sign (#) at the beginning of a sentence or paragraph.
   • you may combine symbols to create a list with multiple levels.

[edit] indent

to indent a paragraph, place a colon in front of it.

the more colons, the more indetation you have.

[edit] links

• to create an internal link, surround a word or phrase with double square brackets ([[ and ]]). to create a link, but have what is seen be different, use a | (above the enter key, use shift). A link that exists will appear Like this, while one that doesn't will appear like this (just an example).
• to create an external link, use single square brackets ([[ and ]]), and don't forget the "http://". place a space and at least one word to make make that word(s) appear as the link. With out the word, you will see this [1], and with is, you will see Home

[edit] media

• to use media (mainly images), place in the double square brackets one of the following:
  1. IMAGE: to bring in an image.
  2. media: to bring in sound.
• these must have been uploaded first.

• [[Image:Nape-color-300.png]] will come out like this: .
