Basic Formatting in the Wiki
Unfortunately this tutorial won't have pretty pictures. Sorry about that :(.
Italics, Bold, Underline
- To make something italicised, you need to put two apostrophes either side of the word or sentence:
''italicise this''
- To make something bold, you need to put three apostrophes either side of the word or sentence:
'''make this bold'''
- To make something bold and italic, put five apostrophes either side of the word or sentence:
'''''make this bold and italicised'''''
- To underline something, you have to use HTML tags:
<u>make this underlined</u>
Lists and Tables
Making a bullet-point list is easy in the wiki. All you need to do is put a star (*) at the beginning of each list item, and it looks like this:
- Item One
- Item Two
- Item Three, etc.
* Item One * Item Two * Item Three, etc.
Tables are much more complicated, and I only really use them for embedding images in text. The easiest way to get a good one is to copy and paste the coding below.
{| |- |[[image:trixxiee.png|thumb|This makes the image within the text and not at the side]] |}
To add more images in one table, just keep adding
|- |[[image:filename.png]]
before the close table sign ( |} )
Note that this puts the images in different rows; to keep them in the same row, omit the '|-' line, like so:
{| |- |[[image:trixxiee.png|thumb|This makes the image within the text and not at the side]] |[[Image:deci.png|thumb|This image is next to the other]] |}
The above code creates this:
