wiki testing, syntax and tricks

• Transclusion of an article: {{:articlename}}
• emailing lists: email the CC data collectors (see also Category:Critical Care Data Collectors)
• sorted table: see Drugs Collected
• file/UNC linking doesn't work because browsers disallow it as unsafe
• comments in wiki articles that won't show in normal view, only edit:
  • <!-- This is a comment, too -->
• table generator: File:Wiki_Tables.xls, originally from here

Parser Functions

lowercase works so hopefully so do the others... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Parser_function try this no 1 yes

Transclusion vs Substitution

Transclusion is calling content from a page or template, substitution is copying it.

• http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Transclusion - e.g. {{templatename}}
• http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Substitution - e.g. {{subst:templatename}}

Non-Image file links to the wiki

• [[ Media:Transition coordinator.gif | this link]]

becomes

• this link

Advantage of linking this way is that the page

• 

will list the linking page, whereas a full external linking (e.g. Green Sheet) is not tracked. This allows tracking, version control, maintenance and clean-up of uploaded files.
