Basic wiki markup is so easy that you have no excuse not to use it. It's pretty similar to what you use in text-only email.

Making a new page

  • Browse to a non-existent page, e.g. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/My_New_Page . The wiki will let you create a new page As If By Magic (TM).

or

  • Edit an existing page to add a link [[My New Page]]. Save the edited page and click on the new link.

Paragraph formatting

  • Single newlines are ignored.
  • Blank lines start a new paragraph.
  • Lines that start with one or more spaces are displayed
 like this

Basic links

  • Use brackets to link to other wiki pages [[Some Random Page]]
  • External URLs are linked automatically: http://www.google.com

Lists

  • Lines beginning with one or more * characters are unnumbered lists
  1. Use # characters for numbered lists.
    1. Go deeper with more #'s or *'s

Sections

  • Text like ==A Section== is a section heading. They automatically appear in the Contents box.
  • Use more = characters for subsections.

Lousy Memory?

  • If this is too hard to remember, just use the pretty buttons at the top of the editing box.
  • The "Editing help" link at the bottom of the editing page tells of more options.
