This page explains how you can use the Wiki Markup language to create headings and lists, and to format text and paragraphs for your pages. One can automatically generate a Table of Contents for a page by creating a heading. Please note that in the STNE-Wiki both Wiki-code and HTML commands may be used. However, they should be used sparingly to avoid conflicts with alternative skins. This particularly applies to the use of different colors.
Text Formatting
| What it looks like | What you write |

| italic bold | ''italic'' '''bold''' '''''italic and bold''''' (There are several apostrophe options [exactly taken, signs for code, no quotes, and no accent - Press Shift+#.) |

You can <strike>strikethrough</strike> or <s>strikethrough</s> words, and <u>underline</u> them. (Text should be formatted normally, so these are preferably not used!) |

* ''Unordered'' lists are easy to do: ** Start every line with a star. *** More stars indicate a deeper level. ** A new line in a list marks the end of the list. * A single bullet can also be used to denote an important point. |
A new line marks the end of the list.
|
# ''Numbered'' lists are: ## Very organized, and ## Easy to follow. A new line marks the end of the list. # New numbering starts with 1 again. |

If a line begins with a space,
it is formatted
just as it was written.
The default character set and
character width are used. The
lines are not wrapped.
This is useful for: * Displaying preformatted text, * Show programming code or algorithms, * Diagrams designed using symbols, * Making simple tables. CAUTION: If you make your lines too long, you will generate a very broad display making it difficult to read. |
