The codes are very similar to MediaWiki, but with a few adaptations to suit the needs of this system.

To make a section, enclose the section heading with ==. For example:

== Formatting text using the wiki ==

Separate paragraphs with a blank line. To enter preformatted text, put a space on the start of each line of the text.

To make a link to a page, just enclose the page name in brackets. To make an external link, use double brackets.

Bulleted list:

* item three

• item two
• item three

Numbered list:

# item one
# item two
# item three

1. item one
2. item two
3. item three

Note that currently additional formatting of list items is not allowed but it will be at a later time.

Within a paragraph, you can make text bold or italics.

Within a paragraph, you can make text '''bold''' or ''italics''.

With the exception of section headings, all of these items can be used in any text on the system. Section headings can only be used in pages.

To make a new page, edit an existing page, and add a link to it. Then save the page, click the link, and you'll get the "page content not found" display. Click the edit link, and enter text for the page.

Note that external links must start with "http:", "https:", or "ftp:". So [[javascript:alert('oops');]] is not accepted as a link.
