Text Formatting Rules

Paragraphs

• Don't indent paragraphs
• Words wrap and fill as needed
• Use blank lines as separators
• Four or more minus signs make a horizontal rule
• %%% makes a linebreak (in headings and lists too)

Lists

• asterisk for first level
  • asterisk-asterisk for second level, etc.
• Use * for bullet lists, # for numbered lists (mix at will)
• semicolon-term-colon-definition for definition lists:

term here

definition here, as in the <DL><DT><DD> list

• One line for each item
• Other leading whitespace signals preformatted text, changes font.

Headings

• '!' at the start of a line makes a small heading
• '!!' at the start of a line makes a medium heading
• '!!!' at the start of a line makes a large heading

Fonts

• Indent with one or more spaces to use a monospace font:

 This is in monospace

This is not

Indented Paragraphs

• semicolon-colon -- works like <BLOCKQUOTE>

this is an indented block of text

Emphasis

• Use doubled single-quotes ('') for emphasis (usually italics)
• Use doubled underscores (__) for strong emphasis (usually bold)
• Mix them at will: bold italics
• Emphasis can be used multiple times within a line, but cannot cross line boundaries:

''this will not work''

References

• Hyperlinks to other pages within the Wiki are made by placing the page name in square brackets: this is a page link? or UsingWikiWords (preferred)
• Hyperlinks to external pages are done like this: http://www.wcsb.org/
• You can name the links by providing a name, a bar (|) and then the hyperlink or pagename: PhpWiki home page - the front page
• You can suppress linking to old-style references and URIs by preceding the word with a '!', e.g. NotLinkedAsWikiName, http://not.linked.to/
• [1], [2], [3], [4] refer to remote references. Click EditLinks on the edit form to enter URLs. These differ from the newer linking scheme; references are unique to a page.
• Also, the old way of linking URL's is still supported: precede URLs with "http:", "ftp:" or "mailto:" to create links automatically as in: http://c2.com/
• URLs ending with .png, .gif, or .jpg are inlined if in square brackets, by themselves:

HTML Mark-Up Language

• Don't bother
• < and > are themselves
• The & characters will not work
• If you really must use HTML, your system administrator can enable this feature. Start each line with a bar (|). Note that this feature is disabled by default.
