Probably the easiest way to start a new entry in this wiki is to type the name of an article that does not yet exist into the address bar:
https://ccmdb.kuality.ca/index.php/articlename
On the page that comes up, hit the edit tab and start typing away.
You can use the buttons above the entry window to add formatting or links. The buttons will add "mark-up" codes. For example, to bold something it would add three single-quotes before and after the bolded text.
Check here for some useful mark-up codes. Here are some you will likely use, but they can't
- text enclosed by double = to generate a headline; if the entry is longer, these will automatically be summarized in a table of contents at the beginning of the article.
- e.g. == my headline ==
- double opening-[ and closing-] to show generate a link to another article. e.g. [real article name|how you want it to show up] with one more set of brackets around it
- e.g. [[name of the other article | how you want it to show up in your text]]
- a * at the beginning of several successive lines to generate a list
- e.g. * bulleted list item
- a # at the beginning of several successive lines to generate a numbered list
- e.g. # numbered list item
Click the "show preview" button to see how your entry would look once marked up.
