MediaWiki Cheat Sheet
Paragraphs
Two line breaks will signify a paragraph. New paragraph starts here. For a linebreak, just use <br/> the html tag
Phrase Emphasis
''italics'' '''bold'''
Links
External:
An [http://url.com/ example].
Wiki-links:
An [[example]] wikilink, possibly even from another namespace: [[talk:example]]. Renaming [[hyperlink|links]] is easy.
Categories: add the page to a category as follows:
[[category:example]]
Images
Not floated:
[[Image:example.png]]
Thumbnail, with a caption, floated left, 200 pixels wide:
[[Image:example.png|left|200px|Floating!]]
Link to the image, but don't show it on the page:
[[:Image:example.png|example.png]]
Headers
== Header 2 == === Header 3 === ====== Header 6 ======
Lists
Ordered:
# Foo # Bar
Unordered:
* A list item. <br> With a line break. * Bar
Definition:
; a term : some defining : and more defining ; and another term : definition
They can be nested:
* Abacus ** answer * Bubbles *# bunk *# bupkis *#; BELITTLER : one who belittles *# burper * Cunning
Definitions, without the word they are defining, are used to indent talk pages:
Delete this article! [[user:spam]] : No, it's great! [[user:eggs]]
Signatures
Comments should be signed:
~~~ is my signature ~~~~ is my signature with datestamp ~~~~~ is just the datestamp
Use HTML for other formatting
For a monospaced font:
use the <tt>tt</tt> tag.
To center text:
<center>put me in the middle</center>
For a blockquote:
<blockquote>To be or not to be…</blockquote>
Prevent wiki formatting
Use the <nowiki>'''tag'' to write '''about''</nowiki> mediawiki code itself, or suppress rendering for some other reason.
Templates
One page can be transcluded in another page by using a template:
{{templates}} go in curly bracesHorizontal Rules
Four or more dashes:
----
Redirect
#REDIRECT [[pagename]]
