Indentation can be increased using a colon (:). Ordered list items start with a number sign (#) and are automatically numbered, depending on the style. Unordered list items start with an asterisk (*) on each line. To link to the description page, insert a colon at the beginning, for example, "]". To link to the image or media itself, use the Media keyword, for example "]" directly links to the file "Flowers.jpg". By default, large images are sized down, and such formats as SVG are converted, for example, to PNG. x specifies an area boundary for the image: the image cannot be larger than that area, but it still maintains its aspect ratio. Additional parameters for the image syntax exist: left (floats to the left), right (floats to the right), none (goes inline with text), thumb (appears in the thumbnail with a caption), frame (appears in a frame), and (width is adjusted to in units specified by, aspect ratio preserved). For images, an image caption can be added using piped link syntax, for example, ].

Images can be generated using internal link syntax, for example, "]". The page title is equivalent to the top-level heading, so using one equal sign is not recommended. The topmost heading has one equal sign ("=Heading 1="), the second-level heading has two ("=Heading2="), and so on. Section text is enclosed by equal signs ("="). E-mail addresses may also be specified this way. To specify text with the link, a space is appended after the link and the text follows, then the whole thing is enclosed in single square brackets. When detected, they are rendered as "inside" the link.Įxternal hyperlinks can be specified explicitly. Plural forms and similar text transformations may be achieved without using pipes by appending immediately after the closing bracket. Some wikis support automatic conversion when a pipe is added at the end but no text is apecified, for example, ], such as omission of the namespace name and omission of text in parentheses. To specify text with the link, add a pipe then append the text. ]Įxtensible Markup Language#Entity references For sections in the same page, the page name is omitted. Sections and anchors may be linked to using a number sign "#", as in HTML. Wikitext (assuming the title of the page is "Wikitext") (This proves effective in navigational boxes.) Pages that do not exist in the wiki are replaced with a red link to create that page. A link to the same page is usually rendered as bold non-linked text. Internal hyperlinks (that is, a link to another page in the same wiki) are enclosed with double square brackets (]). I have '''nested bold ''and'' italic ''' text! Other instances of two or more instances of apostrophes must be escaped, for example by using the tag or by using an XML entity. These can be combined together, provided with proper nesting.

Italic text is enclosed with two apostrophes (''). Some syntax in the succeeding line such as section headings will automatically end the current paragraph.īold text is enclosed with three apostrophes ('''). However, an empty line will start a new paragraph. Text separated by a single line break is rendered as if they were in the same line, separated by a space. The syntax discussed here is for MediaWiki-based wikis such as Wikipedia and Wikia.
