Help:How to Format

Creating Pages

The easiest way to create a page is to create a link, then follow it. Links without pages show up as red. You can click them and fill in a new page. (Links with pages on the other end are blue.)

[[Link Name]]

This link would create a page called Link Name, just like it appeared in the link.

Basic Formatting

In a wiki, both wiki mark up and some html are allowed. Sadly, no BBC like at Absit Omen. But it's pretty easy to get the hang of it.

''italic''	italic
'''bold'''	bold
'''''bold italic'''''	bold italic
# one # two # three ## three point one ## three point two	one two three three point one three point two
* one * two * three ** three point one ** three point two	one two three three point one three point two
: Single indent :: Double indent	Single indent Double indent
<center> Text </center>	This centers the text.
<blockquote> Quote </blockquote>	This sets off a quote.

Links

1. Internal Links to other pages in the wiki
2. External Links to other websites

Please notice that Internal Links use double brackets [[, and External Links use single brackets [.

Internal Links

[[Main Page]]	Main Page
[[Main Page|different text]]	different text

External Lnks

http://www.absitomen.com	http://absitomen.com
[http://www.absitomen.com Absit Omen]	Absit Omen
[http://www.absitomen.com]	[1] (Good for quick reference links)

Table of Contents

When a page has more than three headings, a table of contents will be automatically generated.

__TOC__	Place on its own line to force the Table of Contents to appear there. Notice there's two underscores on each side.
__NOTOC__	Place this anywhere in the page, and a Table of Contents will not appear.

Tables

{| | First item in row | Second item in row | Third item in row |- | Second row | Second row | Second row |- |}

First item in row Second item in row Third item in row Second row Second row Second row
