General information

Wiki formatting and syntax

Most questions on formatting can be found by searching here: https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki or by googling. For convenience, here are some frequently used syntax

Headers

Use equal signs on either side of text for headers.

==Header==

Use more equals for smaller headers. Always use at least two, one is the page title.

Links

To link to a different article use double brackets

[[article name]]

If you want the text shown to be different than the article name use

[[article name|shown text]]

Redirect

To make a page redirect to another use

#Redirect [[article name]]

This must be the first thing on the page(In most cases it will be the only thing).

Lists

For lists use asterisks

*Item 1
*Item 2
*Item 3

[[Category:Name]]

This can in theory be anywhere on the page, but to make editing easier, it should be at the very bottom.
