Formatting help
After a couple of messages asking for help, I may as well create a basic wiki formatting guide. If you are fluent in X/HTML and CSS, you can also use those in place of simplified commands, or use in conjunction of when creating additional flair.
(Note: More info can be found at MediaWiki's help site)
Tables
A basic table in the the editor looks like this
{| <-- Start the table
|1,1 <-- First row, first column
|1,2 <-- First row, second column
|- <-- row break
|2,1 <-- Second row, first column
|2,2 <-- Second row, second column
|} <-- End table
|
Which makes it look like this:
| 1,1 | 1,2 |
| 2,1 | 2,2 |
To add borders to each cell, add class="wikitable" in front of {|, to make it look like this:
| 1,1 | 1,2 |
| 2,1 | 2,2 |
To add headers, use ! as your first row:
{| <-- Start the table
!1,1 <-- Header, first column
!1,2 <-- Header, second column
|- <-- row break
|2,1 <-- Second row, first column
|2,2 <-- Second row, second column
|} <-- End table
|
Which looks like this:
| 1,1 | 1,2 |
|---|---|
| 2,1 | 2,2 |
Uploads
As always, I will include additional help links for Images via Mediawiki's help pages.
Photos and Images
To upload a file, go here, or select Upload File and select the image. After browsing for it on your computer/mobile device, you are able to modify its name and give a description. Select "Upload Image," and you will be redirected to its page.
- NOTE: Currently, the file limit is 10MB, though most assets shouldn't exceed 2MB
To add a photo, add [[File:photoNameHere.ext]] to an article, and it will appear when you commit the edit.
Modifications
With photos and media, there are a select amount modifications you can add to fit your needs.
| Modification type | Description | Example | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Resize | Resizes the object to its specified size (in pixels; scales) | [[File:Melee.png|50px]]
|
File:Melee.png |
| Thumbnail | Adds a box surrounding it; useful for side assets; defaults to right side | [[File:Melee.png|thumb]]
|
|
| Description | Add a description to the bottom | [[File:Melee.png|thumb|Name here]]
|
|
| Horizontal Position | Sets the position of an item to either left, right, or centered; image floats with the flow of the section, and colliding objects are pushed | [[File:Melee.png|right]]
|
|
| Vertical Position | Sets the position of an item to either top, bottom, middle,etc ; image floats with the flow of the section, and colliding objects are pushed | [[File:Melee.png|top]]
|
