3. Formatting
 

The next step is to format your text. Most formatting will be done for you when you edit with form, but sometimes you'll need to add formatting to text.

Making a Link

Format your text with simple code

To create a link to another article, surround the link word with square brackets [[like this]]

If the page already exists, the link will be blue. If it's not been created yet the link will be red. Clicking on a red link will create a new page.


Making text italic and bold

Single quotes are used for italic and bold text.

  • Italics are made with ''two single quotes''
  • Bold is made with '''three single quotes'''
  • Text can be made italic and bold with '''''five single quotes'''''


Making Headings

Headings are made with equals signs.


  • A top level heading is made with:

==two equals signs==


  • Subheadings are made with:

===three or more equals signs===

  • That means, the more equals signs, the smaller headings.
