How to make a wiki
From Wiki
In this article, we will go over the very basic details to creating a clean, professional looking Wikipedia article. This will be kept basic as to not confuse. For a more inclusive guide, please refer to this page on wikipedia
Contents |
Titles
Puting ==Title== on its own line will create a new Title. Replace the word Title with whatever word you want it to be. Put writing under the Title (like this one) to make the sections content
Sub Titles
As with a few of mediawiki's "codes", adding more or less of the symbols will create similar but different results. adding one more "=" to each side of a Title creates a sub title. Ex. ===sub===
Type
bold = '''bold''' (surround text with 3 apostrophes)
italic = ''italic'' (surround text with 2 apostrophes)
Font Color
You can change the color of text by using some simple HTML coding. Ex.
< font color="red">[text here]</font> (without the space between the "<" and the "f") it will turn out like this text here (for a list of html color codes go here)
Tips
- Remember that not everyone is as educated in the field as you are, take your time to explain things
- Keep it organized, make sure you introduce new material in a good order
- Be concise where not many words are needed, but give good descriptions where you feel they are necessary.
