This wiki is an instance of a MediaWiki. As every wiki likes to have its own entirely different syntax and rules, here is a link to the full reference guide: Mediawiki Help Contents

Here are some quick links, however:

  • Use the top menubar for basic editing
  • To create bulleted lists:
    • Put a single asterisk in the first column for the top level bullet
      • Put two asterisks starting in the first column for the first indented level
        • Add asterisks for every level of indent
        • You can edit this page and look at the syntax used here as an example
        • Here is the link to the Mediawiki Lists Syntax: Mediawiki Lists Help
  • To create a table:
    • Put a {| to start the table and a |} to end the table
    • Put a {- to start a row
    • Put a | to start a table cell
    • Edit this page City_Web to view an example (and cancel your edit when done)
    • Here is the link to the Mediawiki Table Syntax: Mediawiki Table Help
  • Using Links
    • To refer to an another wiki page in the same wiki, put the page name in double square brackets
    • To refer to an external URL, put the link uRL in single square brackets
    • Here is the link to the Mediawiki Links Syntax for fancier stuff: Mediawiki Links Help
