Hi there! This page contains editing tips to help you with editing!
How to Style Text[]
You can style text with 'wikimarkup' or HTML.

' ' ' ' ' italic and bold ' ' ' ' ' => italic and bold
<s>strike</s> => strike
<u>underline</u> => underline
<span style="color:red;">red text</span> => red text
How to make links[]
Links are created with one or two square brackets.
A simple internal link
[[Nitrome]]
=> Nitrome
An internal link with link text
[[Nitrome|Text you want]]
=> Text you want
A numbered external link
[http://www.site.com]
An external link with link text

How to add Headings[]

How to Indent Text[]

How to insert images[]
Images are added and formatted in a similar way to links. When uploading images, it is recommended that you upload them as a PNG file; this helps preserve the quality of the pictures a lot better than a JPG file does.
[[File:Name.png]]
To ad alt. text
[[File:Name.png|Alt text]]
To make a thumbnail
[[File:Name.png|thumb|]]
To specify the size of the image (bigger numbers enlarge the image, smaller numbers shrink it)
[[File:Name.png|200px| ]]
To align the image (write down either left or right)
[[File:Name|right|]]
You can combine these attributes by putting a pipe symbol "|" between them. Remember, anything after the last pipe is text.
