HowTo [ID# 99186]  +/-

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.

To rename the newly created page from "My New Page," click the move tab and "move" the page to a new title.

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]]
• If you wish to show other text instead of the page name [[Some Random Page|text you want to display]]
• 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 invisible 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.
