What it looks like

What you type

Formatting text, bold & italics

HTML Method

The Bold and Italics tags work.

Wiki Method

You can italicize text by putting two (2) apostrophes on each side.

Three (3) apostrophes will embolden the text.

Five (5) apostrophes will embolden and italicize the text.

There is a bold & italics button on top of the editor. Just select (highlight) the text to format and press either button.

The <b>Bold</b> and <i>Italics</i> tags work.

You can ''italicize text'' by putting 
2 apostrophes on each side. 

3 apostrophes will embolden '''the text'''. 

5 apostrophes will embolden and italicize 
'''''the text'''''.

(4 apostrophes don't do anything
special -- there's just ''''one left
over''''.)

A Link, Two types - Wiki page links & external links

Wiki Page Links (Internal)

Here's a link to the Main page.

Or rename the link title Wiki Front Page

But be careful - capitalization counts!

So Main page is NOT the same as MAIN Page

Red Links

In Wiki, a red link means the page has not been created.

You can click a red link to quickly create the page.

Link to Other Websites (External)

There are a few ways to do this...

Section Headings

Headings organize your writing into sections. The Wiki software can automatically generate a table of contents from them.

Section Header (Level 2)

This is the most used header. It is called a Level 2 Header. It creates large, bold text with a separation line under it. There are two (2) '=' equals signs around the text.

Subsection

With three (3) '=' equals signs around the text, you get a Subsection, smaller than the Level 2 Header and without the line under it.

Smaller Subsection

Again, add another '=' equals sign, four (4) around the text, will give a smaller Subsection.

== Section Header (Level 2) ==

=== Subsection ===

==== Smaller Subsection ====
Four (4) '=' equals signs 
around the text will give a smaller Subsection.

Paragraphs and New Lines

Starting a new line in the text editor does not start a new line in the final page. You need to use the HTML Break Tag (New Line) to start a new line in the final page.

Strange Behavior

Line 1 And still line 1

Using the HTML Break Tag

Line 1...
A new line, Line 2

Using one (1) blank line between lines

Line 1 ends here.

Line 2 with a blank line between the above line.

Using two (2) blank lines between lines

This text will not be spaced. Even after starting a new line.

A new paragraph. This will create a separate block of text that is double spaced.

Indent, Double Indent Lines

Indent a line

A colon (:) indents a line or paragraph.

A newline starts a new paragraph.

We use 1 colon to indent once.

We use 2 colons to indent twice.

3 colons to indent 3 times, and so on.
