Helpbox to show wikitext format

[edit]

Another new way to learn wp:wikitext is to view the related wp:helpbox during edit-preview of any page, as a short reference card about wikilinks, bold/italic, image links, headers, etc.
Insert "{{wikitext}}" to show the helpbox:

The term "wikitext" refers to Wikipedia's wp:wiki markup language. Formats:

  • [[hyperlink]] or [[hyperlink|link here]] or [[expert]]ly    → hyperlink or link here or expertly
  • [http://www.google.com external link]      → external link   (to an outside webpage)
  • [[File:Example.jpg|thumb|55px|Caption]]      →   (shows image, see below)
  • ==Header== → Header        ===Subheader=== → Subheader
  • ''italic''   '''bold'''   '''''bold-italic'''''italic   bold   bold-italic
  • * bullet → • bullet       (or ":*" or "::*" to indent)
    Caption
  • : indent →     indent   (or "::" or "::::::" to indent more)
  • # numbered →   1.  numbered   ("#:" indents under numbered lines)
  • #* bullet under number →   °  bullet under number
  • [[Category:xx]] → (internal wp:category link).
  • {{templt|aa|bb}} → (run "Template:Templt" with parameters "aa" & "bb")
  • {{#expr: (5*10 + 3^2 +8)/2 }} → calculate expression: (5×10 + 32+8)/2 = 33.5
  • ~~~~ → signature     ~~~~~ → date/time (UTC)

A related page is Help:Table.

However, some other parts of wikitext are very complex, such as displaying a math formula, which can use any of hundreds of symbols (see: Help:Math for formula markup). Welcome. -Wikid77 (talk) 04:44, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, thank you for the info. Bob the Billder 22:19, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You have found your way in editing your userpage. You can edit any article you want. Just be bold. If someone doesn't degree s/he will revert you. Never mind, discuss your proposed change on the article talk page. That's all you need to know. You wanted to know about all the rules. Here is the main recommendation: ignore all rules in editing articles. Now you've signed, let's help in Getting Started. Follow this link to get some great suggestions for doing that.
