Here is a list of the most commonly used wiki commands:
+
----
−
*'''Almost EVERYTHING is case sensitive'''
+
−
===Links===
+
  
−
'''Internal Link''' - <nowiki>[[page name]]</nowiki>  Looks like this: [[page name]]
+
For screenshots we will currently use a place holder as the GUI may change slightly. If you wish to insert a screenshot, type '''<nowiki>{{Screenshot}}</nowiki>'''. This will insert a placeholder and add the page to a category where we can easily track and see a list of all pages requiring screenshots.
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
'''External link''' - <nowiki>[http://www.dsc.com]</nowiki> Looks like this: [http://www.dsc.com]
+
−
 
+
−
Also, If you just type the URL, the wiki will automatically make it in to a link: http://www.dsc.com
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
'''Internal/external Link (with different text)''' – <nowiki>[[page name|text]]</nowiki> Looks like this [[pagename|text]]
+
−
+
−
or <nowiki>[http://www.dsc.com|DSC Homepage]</nowiki> Looks like this: [http://www.dsc.com|DSC Homepage]
+
−
*not sure why DSC isn't showing up...I'm checking that.
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
'''Create a Redirect page''' - <nowiki>#REDIRECT [[pagename]]</nowiki>
+
−
*No text may precede this
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
'''You can also redirect or link to a section of a page like this:'''
+
−
<nowiki>#REDIRECT [[pagename#sectionname]]</nowiki>
+
−
 
+
−
or <nowiki>[[Help#Images|Images]]</nowiki>  Which will look like this: [[Help#Images|Images]]
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
===Images===
+
−
 
+
−
'''To just embed an image''' – <nowiki>[[Image:picturename.jpg]]</nowiki>
+
−
 
+
−
will display: [[Image:logo.jpg]]
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
There are other modifiers you may use as well to make the image smaller/bigger, make it a thumbnail, frame it, caption it, etc.
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
'''Most commonly used is to make the image a smaller thumbnail, right justified and add a caption:'''
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
[[image:logo.jpg|300px|thumb|right|CAPTION]]
+
−
<nowiki>[[image:logo.jpg|300px|thumb|right|CAPTION]]</nowiki>
+
−
which will display:
+
−
*Note all parameters are lower case.
+
−
*300px is the standard thumbnail size for now
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
'''Other parameters include:'''
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
frame – put a frame around an image (thumb already does this; a caption will only be visible if frame or thumb are used)
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
300px – makes the image 300 pixels wide, to scale (this can be used with any value, but the wiki will only shrink images, you cannot enlarge them).
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
right/left/center – changes the image justification
+
−
 
+
−
All parameters are automatically detected by the wiki and do not have to be in a specific order.
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
===Sections===
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
The page will automatically create a table of contents once there is more than three sections on the page.  
+
−
 
+
−
 
+
−
'''To create a subsection''' -  <nowiki>== section name ==</nowiki>
+
−
 
+
−
'''To create a Sub-subsection''' - <nowiki>===section name===</nowiki>        and so on…
