==Wiki mark-up==

==Wiki mark-up - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Cheatsheet Wikipedia's Cheatsheet]==

Wikis use what is called a "mark-up" to show that something is a heading or a list item. If you are not sure how to do something in wiki mark-up, click on the "edit" tab of an entry that is set up the way you are trying to do.

Line 58:

If the category you use does not exist yet, the wiki will create it and group all further entries with the same category on that category's page. Check the [[:Special:Categories]] page before you create a new category to make sure a similar one does not already exist.

~~===Stubs===~~

~~One special category of entries is a '''stub'''. If you know enough information to start an entry, but know more is needed to make it useful, add it to the [[:Category:Stubs]] category.~~

== Tables in the wiki ==

The wiki markup for tables is somewhat complicated to set up manually. There is an excel sheet that converts a table to wiki markup automatically. You can download it [[:image:Wiki_Tables.xls|here]].
