Wiki uses a relatively simple formatting system. You can learn how to use it by reading this page. If you aren't sure how to edit a page, please see How To EditAPage.

If you want to practice, please use the Sand Box .

Links

Use Words Smashed Together to create a link within the site. Click on the ? to edit the new page.

• If you would like a Wiki Word for an acronym (or anything else that isn't Words Smashed Together) use ((free links)): ((free links)).
• Similarly, you can also create links with spaces in them, eg. (([[ Split Wiki Names]])) = (( Split Wiki Names)))

Create a link to something outside this site by typing its URL: http://andstuff.org.

or you can use [1]for more resources

• If you like, enclose it in brackets to create a numbered reference and avoid cluttering the page; [http://andstuff.org] becomes [2].
• Or you can have a description instead of a numbered reference; [http://nytimes.com NY Times] becomes NY Times.

Text formatting

''italic text'' becomes italic text '''bold text''' becomes bold text <code>monospace text</code> becomes monospace text

<code>
	Multi-line code block
	See how it works?
</code>

becomes

Multi-line code block

 See how it works?

---- becomes a horizontal rule:

You can put a picture in a page by typing the URL to the picture (it must end in gif, jpg, or png). For example, http://c2.com/sig/wiki.gif becomes http://c2.com/sig/wiki.gif.

Block formatting

You can indent by starting a paragraph with one or more colons.

:Indent me! ::Me too! becomes

Indent me

Me too!

You can create bullet lists by starting a paragraph with one or more asterisks.

*Bullet one **Sub-bullet becomes

• Bullet one
  • Sub-bullet

Similarly, you can create numbered lists by starting a paragraph with one or more hashes.

#Numero uno #Number two ##Sub-item becomes

1. Numero uno
2. Number two
   1. Sub-item

You can even mix and match list types:

1. Number one
   • Bullet
2. Number two

You can make various levels of heading by putting = signs before and after the text

• = Level 1 heading =
• == Level 2 heading ==
• === Level 3 heading ===
• ==== Level 4 heading ====

Level 1 heading

Level 2 heading

Level 3 heading

Level 4 heading

You can create tables using the following format:

{|
| cell one
| cell two
|-
|colspan="2" | big ol' line
|-
| cell four
| cell five
|}
