Revision as of 10:46, 18 April 2007
Here are a few simple tips for editing the wiki.
Feel free to add more.
For detailed guides to MediaWiki software see:
(N.B.: Wikipedia is heavily customized, so there may be minor technical differences between Wikipedia and this site.)
Hint: Click "Edit" at the top of the page. Reading the code of this page will give you some more tips :)
Adding a link to another page in this wiki
- Simple link:
[[Main Page]] → Main Page
- Using a different text as a link - notice the | character:
[[Main Page|Take a look at out lovely main page!]] → Take a look at out lovely main page!
N.B.: Page names are case sensitive.
Adding a link to a web page
- Very simple link, not so nice:
[http://www.wall.org/] → [1]
- Giving a name to a link, notice the space after the URL:
[http://www.wall.org/ Larry Wall's homepage] → Larry Wall's homepage
- Linking an email address - just like `http://'</code>, but with `mailto:':
[mailto:frodo@shire.eriador.gov Frodo Baggins' email] → Frodo Baggins' email
