  • You can edit the content using the wiki syntax. Normal caracters like * ' " =, that have special functions depending sometimes on their position. For example the sintax ''italic'' will return italic.
  • Mediawiki skips the new blank lines. If you want to start a new paragraph, you only have to drop a new blank line between the two sections of your text. You are also free to use HTML tags like <br>.
  • Some compatible HTML tags with MediaWiki: <code>, <div>, <span> and <font>.

I've created the Days page tomorrow

  • It's a link that points to another wiki page
  • The first letter will pe automatically capitalized
  • If the links is displayed in red, this page is empty. If you click on the link, you can start inserting the content, save it, and then the page will be created.
  • A new page constist in the creation of a new link.

changing the title of the link

I've created the daily page tomorrow

  • The wiki will display the title of the link, in other words all that is placed after a pipe (|)

The best way to make it is to add a title to the link Nupedia

  • The [ ] define an external link
  • No pipe needed, only a space

  • Add 3 ~
  • Note: 5 ~ will add the date.
