Basic wiki markup is so easy that you have no excuse not to use it.
Making a new page
- Browse to a non-existent page, e.g. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/My_New_Page
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
- Links to other wiki pages look like [[Some Random Page]]
- External URLs are linked automatically: http://www.google.com
Lists
- Lines beginning with one or more * characters are unnumbered lists
- Use # characters for numbered lists.
Sections
- Text like ==A Section== is a section heading.
- Use more = characters for subsections. ==Lousy Memory?== * If you can't remember this markup, just use the buttons at the top of the editing box. * The "Editing help" link at the bottom of the editing page tells of more options.
