Project:Wiki Markup Code
Formatting
There is a range of text formatting options available in wikicode. Some of these are based on HTML code. Some types of HTML code can be used, but wikicode is preferred.
| Formatting | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Italic | ''Italic text'' | Italic text |
| Bold | '''Bold text''' | Bold text |
| Bold & italic | '''''Bold & italic text''''' | Bold & italic text |
| Color | <span style="color:#CC0000">Red text</span> | Red text |
Links
Linking helps connect various pages on the wiki together. Users can also link to websites outside of Kanzenshuu.
| Formatting | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Internal link | [[Page title|Link label]] [[Page title]] |
Link label Page title |
| External link | [http://www.example.org Link label] [http://www.example.org] http://www.example.org |
Link label [1] http://www.example.org |
Section Headings
The = through ====== markup are headings for the sections with which they are associated.
- A single = is styled as the page title and should not be used within a page or article.
- Headings are styled through CSS and add an [edit] link.
| Formatting | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
| 2nd level heading | ==Heading text== | Heading text |
| 3rd level heading | ===Heading text=== | Heading text |
| 4th level heading | ====Heading text==== | Heading text |
| 5th level heading | =====Heading text===== | Heading text |
| 6th level heading | ======Heading text====== | Heading text |
Lists
Do not leave blank lines between items in a list unless there is a reason to do so, since this causes the MediaWiki software to interpret each item as beginning a new list.
| Formatting | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Unordered list | * List item ** List item *** List item |
|
| Ordered list | # List item ## List item ### List item |
|
To list terms and definitions, start a new line with a semicolon (;) followed by the term. Then, type a colon (:) followed by a definition.
Definition lists consist of group names corresponding to values. Group names (terms) are in bold. Values (definitions) are indented. Each group must include one or more definitions. For a single or first value, the : can be placed on the same line after ; – but subsequent values must be placed on separate lines.
Do not use a semicolon (;) simply to bold a line without defining a value using a colon (:).
| Formatting | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Definition list | ; Term : Definition1 : Definition2 |
|
Indenting
Indentation is most commonly used on talk pages.
| Formatting | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
| Indent text | Normal text : Indented text :: Indented text |
Normal text
