Wiki is a platform for working together on constructing web pages. The principles are simple.
|
|
<br /><br />
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A text is written and saved.</li>
|
|
<li>Later, another person may read that text and think of some additions or
|
|
corrections that could be made. They choose "Edit" and make their changes to the page. </li>
|
|
<li>After saving their new version, it is available globally.</li><br /> <br />
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
With a wiki, it is also easily possible to add a page or link to existing pages.
|
|
<br /><br />
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A link is created by a WikiWord. This is one word with at least two capital letters. If a page with this name already exist, it will be linked automatically, if not, it will be displayed with a question mark.</li>
|
|
<li>Clicking on this question mark, will start a new blank page with that name, ready to edit.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<br /><br />

Wiki formatting rules</b></p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h4> Paragraphs</h4>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> separate paragraphs inside the text with empty lines</li>
|
|
<li> use three percent signs %%% to enforce a line break</li>
|
|
<li> if you prepend text with spaces or tabs it will get indented </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h4> !! Headlines</h4>
|
|
|
|
<ul type="circle">
|
|
<li> use an exclamation mark ! at the beginning of a line to create a small headline</li>
|
|
|
|
<li> !! for medium</li>
|
|
<li> !!! for large headlines </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h4>Text style</h4>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li> if you want to <em>emphasize text</em> enclose it in two single-quotes '' (usually looks italic)</li>
|
|
<li> <strong>text gets bold</strong> with two underscores __ (or if enclosed with two asterisks **)</li>
|
|
<li> to make <big>text big</big> enclose it in hash characters ##</li>
|
|
|
|
<li> you can get <small> smaller text </small> using "µµ" likewise</li>
|
|
<li> a <tt>typewrite like font</tt> will be used if you enclose text in two equal == signs </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h4>Lists</h4>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> start a line with an asterisk * to begin a list</li>
|
|
<li> use # instead for numerated lists
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li> you can create sublists</li>
|
|
|
|
<li> subsequent list points should start with the same mix of * and # </li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h4> HyperLinks</h4>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li> just enter a WikiWord inside your text to create a new hyper link</li>
|
|
<li> enclose some words in [square brackets] to create a HyperLink inside the WikiWikiWeb which is not made up of a valid WikiWord</li>
|
|
|
|
<li> any valid internet address (starting with http:/) like http://www.example.com/ inside the text will be made clickable automagically</li>
|
|
<li> enclose a www address or a WikiLink inside square brackets and assign it a neat title using quotation marks or the | character
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> [title | http://example.com]</li>
|
|
|
|
<li> [WikiWord "title"] or ["title for" WikiLink] </li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li> if you don't want a WikiWord or a http://www-address (or [anything] inside square brackets) to become a HyperLink then just prepend it with a exclamation mark or a tilde
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> !NoHyperLink, ~NoHyperLink</li>
|
|
<li> ![no hyperlink], !http://nolink.org/ </li>
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h4> Tables with |</h4>
|
|
| just enclose | things with the dash | character | <br />
|
|
| to build a | table structure | <br />
|
|
| browsers usually | leave out the missing | cells | <br />
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Please always put an empty line before and after a table, so it stands out from other text in its own paragraph.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4> Pictures</h4>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li> to include an image into a page enclose its absolute www-address in square brackets, like [http://www.example.com/pics/image.png] </li>
|
|
<li> alternatively you could use the image uploading function.</li>
|
|
</ul>
