This will show you how to use basic Markup (Formatting).

Headings

This will make text bigger and/or more distinct.

= Heading Text Size 1 (Largest) =
== Heading Text Size 2 ==
=== Heading Text Size 3 Bold ===
==== Heading Text Size 4 Bold ====
===== Heading Text Size 5 Bold (Smallest) =====

will output (in order)

Heading Text Size 1 (Largest)

Heading Text Size 2

Heading Text Size 3

Heading Text Size 4 (Smallest)

Heading Text Bold

Bold

This makes text more thicker, which can be used to emphasize parts of an article.

'''Bold Text'''

would output

Bold Text

You can also achieve this by clicking on the B button in the editor.

Italics

This makes text slanted, which is used when you want emphasis parts of an article, and something else that is too long to explain here. Check the reference below for proper detail[1]

''Italic Text''

would output

Italic Text

You can also achieve this by clicking on the slanted I button in the editor.

On-Site Links (Wikilinks)

This will link to other pages on this wiki. This is not used for off-site links, such as YouTube, Reddit, or Club Penguin.

[[User:Bobzilla]]

would output

User:Bobzilla

This can also be achieved by clicking on the Chain button in the editor, and putting in the proper information. Make sure you check "To a wiki page"!

Off-Site Links

This will link to other pages not on this wiki. Do not use this to advertise anything not related or relevant to this wiki, please.

[https://www.example.com/]

would output

[1]

To add text to the link, put in text after the link.

[https://www.example.com/ Link]

would output

Link

This can also be achieved by clicking on the Chain button in the editor, and putting in the proper information. Make sure you check "To an external web page"!

References

These can be used as sources or as references to important information.

 <ref>https://www.example.com/</ref> 

would output (excluding the word "Reference")

Reference[2]

Images

This can be used to give a visual representation of a thing described in an article.

Although you can use text to show a file, you shouldn't.

Instead I recommend clicking on the Image button (Painting of a mountain, right next to Chain (Link) button.) and adding an image that way. To upload an image, click on the Image button (assuming you haven't already), and in the bottom-left, click on Upload. Follow the steps, and you should have a working image on your article.

Missed anything?

Is there something your wondering how to do? Go to the talk page of this article, and tell me! I will try to see if it is possible in the RGDWiki.
