Signing your name in talk pages using ~~~~
You should always sign your comments by appending four tildes (~~~~) to your comment, which adds your user name plus the date and time.
For example, this is what signing with four tildes will produce:
YOUR_USER_NICK 13:44, 22 March 2014 (GMT)
Adding three tildes will add just your user name.
Adding five tildes gives only the date and time.
13:44, 22 March 2014 (GMT)
If you don't know how, or cannot easily, type a tilde character on your keyboard, you can copy (then paste) the tildes from here, to use in talk pages:
~~~ (just your user name)
~~~~ (your user name plus date/time)
~~~~~ (just the date/time)
You may be able to use the number pad to type the tilde.
Press and hold down the left ALT key, then type 126 on the number pad, then release the ALT key. The tilde should appear where the cursor is.
More info on ALT keys character entry is here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt_code
More available symbols may be found here:
ALSO: **** DOES NOT WORK ****
Character references that are based on the referenced character's UCS or Unicode code point are called numeric character references. In HTML 4 and in all versions of XHTML and XML, the code point can be expressed either as a decimal (base 10) number or as a hexadecimal (base 16) number. The syntax is as follows:
Character U+0026 (ampersand), followed by character U+0023 (number sign), followed by one of the following choices:
- one or more decimal digits zero (U+0030) through nine (U+0039); or
- character U+0078 ("x") followed by one or more hexadecimal digits, which are zero (U+0030) through nine (U+0039), Latin capital letter A (U+0041) through F (U+0046), and Latin small letter a (U+0061) through f (U+0066);
all followed by character U+003B (semicolon). Older versions of HTML disallowed the hexadecimal syntax.

Simple italic and bold formatting of a word or phrase
You may use either wiki markup or HTML markup to make a word or phrase italic, bold or both italic and bold
Make a word or phrase italic using ''
To italicize text, just put 2 apostrophes - '' - on each side.
THIS IS SUPPOSED TO WORK BUT DOES NOT: '
''This will appear italicized when displayed.''
See "Some cautions using bold and italics"
Make a word or phrase bold using '''
3 apostrophes on each side will bold the text
'''This will appear in bold.'''
See "Some cautions using bold and italics"
Make a word or phrase bold and italic using '''''
5 apostrophes on each side makes text appear in bold italics
'''''This will appear in bold and italics.'''''
See "Some cautions using bold and italics"
Some cautions on using bold and italics
Italic and bold formatting only works correctly within a single line. If you start bold or italics on one line, then press "Enter" for a new line, you must again put the bold or italics markup for the text on the second line (the correct number of apostrophes).
Markup such as bold or italics will be terminated at a line break (You must put the bold/italic markup again on the text of a new line).
The following is incorrect markup:
'''''This will be in bold and italics.'''''
And will give this result:
This will be in bold and italics.
The following is incorrect markup:
'''''This will be in bold and italics.'''''
And will give this result:
This will be in bold
and italics.
The following is correct markup:
'''''This will be in bold ''''' '''''and italics.'''''
And will give this appearance:
This will be in bold
and italics.
MUST CODE THE FOLLOWING SO DISPLAYS IN HELP FILE
To produce text as small caps, there is a template. ???
DO WE HAVE A TEMPLATE???
Use small text only as needed.
It is better to not use big text, unless it's within small text.
A span tag can set text font-size as being 87% of prior size, to match an image caption.
Separating lines of text - one "Enter" vs. two "Enters"
Line breaks or newlines are used to add white-space between lines, such as separating paragraphs.
A line break that is visible in the content is inserted by pressing the "Enter" key twice.
Pressing "Enter" only once will place a line break (and put the text on a new line) in the markup, but it will not show in the display in the wiki (there will not be a line break in the actual wiki text), except when using list markup (making lists using ????.
Markup such as bold or italics will be terminated at a line break (You must put the bold/italic markup again on the text of a new line).
Template:Break adds multiple line breaks ???.
Template:Crlf2 adds a true carriage return and line feed.
adds a break with styling to clear floating elements. WTF???
The MediaWiki software suppresses single newlines and converts lines starting with a space to preformatted text in a dashed box. HTML suppresses multiple spaces. It is often desirable to retain these elements for poems, lyrics, mottoes, oaths and the like. The Poem extension adds HTML-like Template:Tag tags to maintain newlines and spaces. These tags may be used inside other tags such as Template:Tag. CSS styles may be applied to this tag, e.g.: <poem style="margin-left: 2em;">.
</poem>
Making text appear like "source code" or "monospace text" using <code>
use <code> and </code> to produce text with no formatting, similar to what is seen in computer coding. It is also called "monospace text".
function <code>int m2()</code> is very useful sometimes.
... will display:
function int m2() is very useful sometimes.
The "int m2()" above is in monospace font, as is also the text in the example box above.
The <pre> markup tag also produces monospace text in the display.
Create a section heading using == and ===
One or more equal signs ( = ) are used to create headings.
A single "=" is used only for the main article heading and should not be used within an article.
The line above which says "Create a section heading using = " is an example of a section heading.
The heading above was created with this markup:
==Create a section heading using == and === ==
You may create further sub-headings by using multiple "=" signs as follows:
==Create a section heading within an article==
===Create a section sub-heading within an article===
====Create another section sub-heading within an article====
Section headings may be used to automatically create a table of contents (TOC) for an article.
NEEDS A LINK See: Make a TOC (table of contents)
Centering text using <center>
You may use the .HTML markup to center text.
<center> TEXT TO CENTER </center>
... will give you the following:
WE HAVE NO CENTER TEMPLATE????
Align text to right side of the page
Text normally begins on the left side of the page. You may want to align the text so it is on the right side of the page instead.
Here is the tag which will do that:
<div style="text-align: right; direction: ltr; margin-left: 1em;">Text on the right</div>
Make a list
CHECK IF THIS IS CORRECT Warning: when you use # inside headers, the first level won't be numbered. The source mentions this 'looks stupid'.
A normal/unordered lists using *
A simple list can be created by putting one or more asterisks (*) at the beginning of each item.
This is equivalent to using the "<li>" tag in HTML markup.
eg
* bullet list item * bullet list item * bullet list item
... will give you:
- bullet list item
- bullet list item
- bullet list item
List items may be indented by using more than one asterisks as follows:
* bullet list item ** indented bullet list two ** indented bullet list three
... will give you:
- bullet list item
- indented bullet list two
- indented bullet list three
* bullet list item ** indented bullet list two *** indented bullet list three ** indented bullet list three
... will give you:
- bullet list item
- indented bullet list two
- indented bullet list three
- indented bullet list three
- indented bullet list two
See "Some cautions on making lists".
A numbered/ordered list using #
A simple numbered list can be created by putting one or more "hash marks" (#) at the beginning of each item.
# numbered list # numbered list ## indented list ## indented list ### depth 3 indented list ### more ## and more # and more
... will give you:
- numbered list
- numbered list
- indented list
- indented list
- depth 3 indented list
- more
- and more
- and more
Normally, it is not possible to continue the numbering sequence after an included bulleted list. You can force numbered lists to continue the numbering sequence after an included bulleted list this way:
Example - You want this:
1. Blah
2. Blah blah
* snark
* snack
3. Blorp
... BUT you get this:
- Blah
- Blah blah
- snark
- snack
- Blorp
You can "fake" it by using the following:
#Blah #Blah blah<br>* snark<br>* snack #Blorp
... and you get this:
- Blah
- Blah blah
* snark
* snack - Blorp
Here is a more complex example of the above.
You want this:
- item one
- item two
- indented item
- indented item two
* bulleted entry
* bulleted entry
- item three
- item four
- item five
... BUT you get this:
- item one
- item two
- indented item
- indented item
- bulleted non-numbered item
- bulleted non-numbered item
- more
- and more
- and more
You can "fake" it by using <br>, as in the following:
# item one # item one # item two ## indented item ## indented item<br>* bulleted non-numbered item<br>* bulleted non-numbered item # more # and more # and more
... and you get this:
- item one
- item two
- indented item
- indented item
* bulleted non-numbered item
* bulleted non-numbered item
- more
- and more
- and more
NOTE: You can also insert one of the following into a list the same way: a), b) or i), ii), etc.
# item one # item two ## indented item ## indented item<br>a) item<br>b) another item<br> i) stuff<br> ii) more # more # and more # and more
... and get this:
- item one
- item two
- indented item
- indented item
a) item
b) another item
i) stuff
ii) more
- more
- and more
- and more
See "Some cautions on making lists".
To list terms and definitions using ; then :
To list terms and definitions, start a new line with a semicolon (;) followed by the term. Then, type a colon (:) followed by a definition.
Definition lists consist of group names corresponding to values. Group names (terms) are in bold. Values (definitions) are indented. Each group must include one or more definitions. For a single or first value, the : can be placed on the same line after ; – but subsequent values must be placed on separate lines.
Examples:
;Term to be defined:Definition of the term
- Term to be defined
- Definition of the term
;Verse:Spring has sprung, :Fall has fell. :Summer's here, :and it's hotter than usual...
- Verse
- Spring has sprung,
- Fall has fell.
- Summer's here,
- and it's hotter than usual...
NOT SURE WHAT USE THE ABOVE IS???
Some cautions on making lists
Do not leave blank lines between items in a list unless there is a reason to do so, since this causes the MediaWiki software to interpret each item as beginning a new list.
Indenting text
Making a "blockquote" (indenting a section of text using <blockquote>)
There are several ways to indent text. You may wish to indent a block of text using the <blockquote> tag:
<blockquote> This will be indented text. This will be indented text. This will be indented text. This will be indented text. This will be indented text. </BLOCKQUOTE>
This will give you:
This will be indented text. This will be indented text. This will be indented text. This will be indented text. This will be indented text.
Making a "blockquote" (indenting a section of text using the <poem> tag
You may also use the <poem> tag to indent text.
Note that you can include one or more spaces at the beginning of lines to further "format" the text.
<poem style="margin-left:2em;">Mary had a little lamb the doctor was surprised. But when Old MacDonald had a farm, he couldn't believe his eyes!</poem>
Mary had a little lamb
the doctor was surprised.
But when Old MacDonald had a farm,
he couldn't believe his eyes!
You may adjust the amount of indent by changing the "margin-left:" in the above.
For example, by changing the "margin-left:2em" to "margin-left:6em" in the following:
<poem style="margin-left:6em;">Mary had a little lamb the doctor was surprised. But when Old MacDonald had a farm, he couldn't believe his eyes!</poem>
... you get:
Mary had a little lamb
the doctor was surprised.
But when Old MacDonald had a farm,
he couldn't believe his eyes!
Indenting a single line using a colon :
Putting one or more colons at the beginning of a line indents the first line of the phrase or paragraph.
HOW TO MAKE A LINK FOR THIS??? See:
What a colon (:) does at the beginning of a line
You may also use a series of " " at the beginning of a line to form an indented line.
This line is indented using , but a colon is preferable.
This line is indented using , but a colon is preferable.
Indenting the line following after an indented line using two colons
See: What a colon (:) does at the beginning of a line
DO WE HAVE TEMPLATES FOR THE FOLLOWING??? Template:Outdent, Template:Outdent2
Making links
There are two kinds of links, an "internal link" which links to another part of the same webpage, or an "external link" which links to other pages on the same site, or to pages on other sites.
Create a link on a page to skip to another part of the same page
A link like this is called an "internal link".
To make a link that can be clicked on to skip to another part of the same page, you need to put two tags.
The following is the first tag, which is the link to be clicked on.
There are two parts to the link. The first part (with the # in front) is the part that the second tag uses as the "target". The second part, "CLICK ON THIS" is your description of the link, which will appear in blue as a link on the page.
[[#TARGET_ONE|CLICK ON THIS]]
In the above, only the "CLICK ON THIS" will be visible in the page display.
The following tag is the target in the article/page - the point that will be skipped to:
<span id="TARGET_ONE"></span>
You must include the same target terms in the first and the second tags.
Examples of both the first and second tags:
[[#Butterflies|Section_on_butterflies]]
"#Butterflies" is the target in the below example. The phrase "Section on butterflies" will appear on the screen as the link.
This is the second tag:
<span id="Butterflies"></span>
The target will only be visible in page-edit mode. On the displayed page it will be invisible.
NOTE: Be sure to test your links. There are limitations on the characters that you can include when making the "target". Be sure that it works!
Create a link to another wiki page
It is very easy to create a link to another page on the same wiki.
Just put double brackets [[ and ]] on each side of the link.
Here is an example of a link to the page which describes BoyWiki:
[[BoyWiki|Boywiki]]
To find all internal pages on BoyWiki which can be linked to, use this link:
https://en.boywiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Categories&limit=500
Create a link to a webpage on an external site
There are several ways to put links to pages on external sites. The easiest is to simply copy and paste the URL of the site. Here is a link to the (English) Wikipedia main page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/
You may also choose to "name" or "describe" the link (which hides the URL). For example:
[http://en.wikipedia.org Wikipedia]
... will give you this:
Note that for external links, only one set of brackets - [ and ] - are used.
You may wish to make the link more obviously a hypertext-format link by placing < and > around the description:
[http://en.wikipedia.org <Wikipedia>]
For example:
If you'd like to read a fairly good encyclopedia (but one that discriminates against "pedophiles" and does not allow self-proclaimed "boylovers" to edit pages, see [http://en.wikipedia.org < Wikipedia >]and search for the archived "talk" pages for the pages related to pedophilia.
If you'd like to read a fairly good encyclopedia (but one that discriminates against "pedophiles" and does not allow self-proclaimed "boylovers" to edit pages, see <Wikipedia>and search for the archived "talk" pages for the pages related to pedophilia.
Creating a reference and link to an external source (see:Category:Citation templates)
You can create a numbered reference to a target external page this way:
[http://en.wikipedia.org/Pedophilia]
... which will link to the Wikipedia page, but which only gives a number (the reference) to click on.
For more specific information on how to create a correct reference, see Category:Citation templates
The following is just to give you an idea how references work:
<pre>blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah <ref>{{cite web|url=PUT_URL_HERE |title=PUT_NAME_OF_LINK_HERE |publisher=PUT_PUBLISHER_HERE |date=PUT_DATE_HERE |accessdate=PUT_ACCESS_DATE_HERE}}</ref></pre>
Inserting a horizontal line (a "rule")
In HTML markup, <hr> will put a ruled line across the page.
But in wiki markup, the horizontal rule represents a paragraph-level thematic break. So do not use a horizontal line in article content.
Making a TOC (table of contents) using __TOC__
Use __TOC__ to automatically create a table of contents.
It is not necessary to use the tag - all articles don't need a table of contents. A table of contents is useful for a longer article that has many sections which a user may wish to "jump" directly to by clicking the TOC heading.
If you would like to specify that no TOC is created (which is unnecessary, because only by using the tag is one created!) use this tag:
__NOTOC__
... and there will not be a TOC created.
The number of levels shown in a TOC depends on the number of headings created using == , === , ==== , ===== , etc. The TOC may be limited to only a certain number of entries by using this tag:
??? MUST FIND WHAT THE TAG IS
Making text appear as "code" text using <code>
NEEDS A LINK See: Making text appear like "source code" or "monospace text"
Turning off wiki markup
Using <nowiki>)
<nowiki></nowiki>
... can be used to "turn off" then "turn on" wiki markup.
NEEDS EXAMPLES
Using <pre>
<pre>
"<pre>" stands for "preformatted text".
Using the <pre> tag can "turn off" the wiki markup, and put the text in a dotted box.
Warning: The text, if longer than a normal line, will extend beyond the right margin, and will not be "wrapped" at the normal page margin. This will cause the margin of the page to be very wide.
NEEDS EXAMPLES
What is a "non-breaking space" and when to use it -
You can include a non-breaking space (sometimes called non-printing character) if you want two words to always appear together on the same line, such as "Mr. Smith" or "400 km/h", using instead of a regular space between the two words which need to be always kept together, and never be separated on different lines.
Using the following:
Mr. Smith
... the two words "Mr." and "Smith" will never have the "Mr." at the end of one line, and the "Smith" on the start of the next line. They will always stay together.
Mr. Smith
Mr. Smith
400 km/h
400 km/h
You may also use a series of <nbsp> at the beginning of a line to indent the line.
MUST PUT LINK
Also see: What a colon (:) does at the beginning of a line
WE HAVE NO PAD TEMPLATE???
Extra spacing within text can best be achieved using the pad template.
Mary Template:Pad had a little lamb. ???
What a colon (:) does at the beginning of a line (indents lines)
:This line begins with a colon. The colon indents the text.
- This line begins with a colon. The colon indents the text.
More than one colon may be used.
:This line begins with a colon. The colon indents the text.
- This line begins with a colon. The colon indents the text.
::This line begins with two colons.
- This line begins with two colons.
Also you may use <nbsp> at the beginning of a line.
NEEDS A LINK See: What is a "non-breaking space" and when to use it -
What an asterisk (*) does at the beginning of a line (creates simple unnumbered lists)
An asterisk creates a simple list, like the <li> HTML tag, as in the following:

- An asterisk creates a simple list.
- An asterisk creates a simple list.
- An asterisk creates a simple list.

Why wiki markup is preferred to HTML markup in wikis
- Consistency - all editors use the same style of mark-up.
- The raw source for editing looks "cleaner".
- It forces people who have spent years learning and practicing HTML markup to spend even more time learning a new mark-up language, which slows them down considerably.
- An easy-to-use - and also free - on-line converter is unnecessary to use to convert HTML to wiki markup.
- A very few HTML commands could be used as "exploits" (but this is easily protected against, and any good sysadmin will have done this already of necessity).
- Some sysadmin are just jerks. ;- )
Other characters you may use in wikis
