Contents

To add a category to a page. This will appear at the bottom of the page.

[[Category:Software]]

To link to a category (but not add it to the page), add a semicolon in front.

[[:Category:Software]]

To create a linebreak:

<br />

These should be used sparingly, as paragraphs and bullets should be considered first.

You can insert a page within another page by using this:

{{:Motionographer}}

Comments

You can use the usual html comment code to keep code from appearing. This is useful for comments you want people to see only when they edit the page, such as instructions. <!-- YOU CAN'T SEE THIS -->

Redirects

You can redirect pages (and searches) to go to a different page. For example, I redirected "Adobe After Effects" to "After Effects" with this syntax in the "Adobe After Effects" page.

#redirect [[After Effects]]

Citing

I'll update this shortly, with other citing practices.

According to scientists, the Sun is pretty big.<ref>E. Miller, The Sun, (New York: Academic Press, 2005), 23-5.</ref> The Moon, however, is not so big.<ref>R. Smith, "Size of the Moon", Scientific American, 46 (April 1978): 44-6.</ref>
