The following is just a quick cheat sheet of wiki formating tips.
For the best information go to the main wiki at wikimedia
Creating a New Page
Wiki pages are creating by creating a link before the page!
To create a new page, simply edit an existing page and add an internal link to the new page like [[My New Page]]. Then simply click on the link!
Text
| What it looks like
|
What you type
|
| Emphasize
|
''Emphasize''
|
| Emphasize strongly
|
'''Emphasize strongly'''
|
| 'Emphasize very strongly'
|
''''Emphasize very strongly''''
|
New Lines
New lines are specifiy by adding a blank line in between text. Consectutive lines of text have no effect on formatting.
Alteratively you can add a <br/> tag to force a line break. Please include the slash in there as that is correct XML formatting.
Sections
Sections show up in the table of contents.
| What it looks like
|
What you type
|
| Section

| Subsection

|
Lists
| What it looks like
|
What you type
|
- Unordered Lists are easy to do:
- start every line with a star
- more stars means deeper levels
- A newline
- in a list
marks the end of the list.
- Of course
- you can
- start again.
|
* Unordered Lists are easy to do:
** start every line with a star
*** more stars means deeper levels
*A newline
*in a list
marks the end of the list.
*Of course
*you can
*start again.

- Ordered Lists are easy to do:
- start every line with a pound
- more pounds means deeper levels
- A newline
- in a list
marks the end of the list.
- Of course
- you can
- start again.

# Ordered Lists are easy to do:
## start every line with a pound
### more pounds means deeper levels
#A newline
#in a list
marks the end of the list.
#Of course
#you can
#start again.

- Definition Lists Item 1
- Indented Definition 1
- Indented Definition 2
- Definition Lists
- can have definitions when seperated by a colon (:)
|
; Definition Lists Item 1
;; Indented Definition 1
;; Indented Definition 2
; Definition Lists : can have definitions when seperated by a colon (:)
|
- Simple Indent Item 1
- Double Indented Item 1
- Double Indented Item 2
|
: Simple Indent Item 1

Links
Use internal links for all content inside this wiki. This allows us to prevent link breakage among a host of other beneficial features.
| What it looks like
|
What you type
|
| External Link [1]
|
External Link [http://www.expressobeans.com]
|
| External Link with label Expresso Beans
|
External Link [http://www.expressobeans.com Expresso Beans]
|
| Internal Link Shipping Prints
|
Internal Link [[Shipping Prints]]
|
| Internal Link with Label How To Ship
|
Internal Link with Label [[Shipping Prints | How to Ship]]
|
| Wikipedia Link en:Eyes Adrift
|
Wikipedia Link [[:en:Eyes Adrift]]
|
| Wikipedia Link with Label the band Eyes Adrift
|
Wikipedia Link with Label [[:en:Eyes Adrift | the band Eyes Adrift]]
|
Images
All images have to be uploaded to be used.
To link to an image just make an internal link to it like [[Image:Frank_kozik-i-1.jpg]]. It is recommend that you specify alternate text by adding a piped option like [[Image:Frank_kozik-i-1.jpg|Frank Kozik]].
Thumnbnails
Don't upload image thumbnails! Let the system deal with that.
If the images are large, it is really important to use thumbnails. To this just add the piped thumb option along with a size like [[Image:Frank_kozik-i-1.jpg|thumb|64px]]
By default, the thumbnail with appear on the right side of the page and the text will wrap around it. You can specify position arguments to change this.
Aligning Images
Images can be put on the left, right or center by adding the piped option like [[Image:Frank_kozik-i-1.jpg|thumb|64px|left]].
Clearing text wrapping
We have a template to help prevent images from running into text that may follow it and otherwise wrap around the text.
Just add {{clr}} at the point in the document where you want the wrapping to end.
Boxes
The easy way to make a box is to start a line with a space.
