Synopsis
Text Formatting Rules
Emphasis: '____' for ''italics'', '''' for bold, '____'_''''_ for ''__both__''
Lists: * for bullet lists, # for numbered lists, "; term : definition" for definition lists
References: !JoinCapitalizedWords or use square brackets for a [page link? or URL [!http://cool.wiki.int/?.
Footnotes: Use [1?,[2?,[3?,...
Preventing linking Prefix with "!": !!DoNotHyperlink, name links like [text ? (double up on the "[")
Misc "!", "!!", "!!!" make headings, "%%''''%" makes a linebreak, "-''''-''''-''''-" makes a horizontal rule
Paragraphs
- Don't indent paragraphs
- Words wrap and fill as needed
- Use blank lines as separators
- Four or more minus signs make a horizontal rule
- %%''''% makes a linebreak (in headings and lists too)
Lists
- asterisk for first level
- * asterisk-asterisk for second level, etc.
- Use * for bullet lists, # for numbered lists (mix at will)
- semicolon-term-colon-definition for definition lists:
;term here:definition here, as in the - list
- One line for each item
- Other leading whitespace signals preformatted text, changes font.
Headings
- '!' at the start of a line makes a small heading
- '!!' at the start of a line makes a medium heading
- '!!!' at the start of a line makes a large heading
Fonts
- Indent with one or more spaces to use a monospace font:
This is in monospace
This is not
Indented Paragraphs
- semicolon-colon -- works like
;: this is an indented block of text
Emphasis
- Use doubled single-quotes ('____') for emphasis (usually ''italics'')
- Use doubled underscores ('''') for strong emphasis (usually bold)
- Mix them at will: ''bold italics''
- ''Emphasis'' can be used ''multiple'' times within a line, but ''cannot'' cross line boundaries:
''this
will not work''
References
- Hyperlinks to other pages within the Wiki are made by placing the page name in square brackets: this is a page link? or Using Wiki Words? (preferred)
- Hyperlinks to external pages are done like this: http://www.wcsb.org/
- You can name the links by providing a name, a bar (|) and then the hyperlink or pagename: PhpWiki home page - the front page ?
- You can suppress linking to old-style references and URIs by preceding the word with a '!', e.g. !NotLinkedAsWikiName, !http://not.linked.to/
- You can create footnotes by using [1?, [2?, [3?, ... like this here 1?. See footnote for counterpart. (If the [ is in the first column, it is a footnote ''definition'' rather than a footnote ''reference'' [1?.)
- Also, the old way of linking URL's is still supported: precede URLs with "http:", "ftp:" or "mailto:" to create links automatically as in: http://c2.com/
- URLs ending with .png, .gif, or .jpg are inlined if in square brackets, by themselves: http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/alpha/themes/default/images/png.png
Tables
- Simple tables are available. A table row is introduced by a | in the first column. It is best described by example:
|| ''''_Name_'''' |v ''''_Cost_'''' |v ''''_Notes_''''
| ''''_First_'''' | ''''_Last_''''
|> Jeff |< Dairiki |^ Cheap |< Not worth it
|> Marco |< Polo | Cheaper |< Not available
;: will generate
|| Name |v Cost |v Notes
| First | Last
|> Jeff |< Dairiki |^ Cheap |< Not worth it
|> Marco |< Polo | Cheaper |< Not available
;: Note that multiple |__'s lead to spanned columns, and __v__'s can be used to span rows. A __> generates a right justified column, < a left justified column and ^ a centered column (which is the default.)
HTML Mark-Up Language
- Don't bother
- < and > are themselves
- The & characters will not work
- If you really must use HTML, your system administrator can enable this feature. Start each line with a bar (|). Note that this feature is disabled by default.

various kind of wiki maintainance links.
Footnotes:
1? By using [1? a second time (in the first column) the footnote itself is ''defined''. You may refer to a footnote as many times as you want, but you may only define it once on the page. Note the the [1? in the footnote links back to the first reference, if there are multiple references there will be +'s after the [1? which will link to the other references. (References which come ''after'' the footnote ''definition'' will not be linked to.)
