[ Welcome to the markup-test/-playground page - this is the place to try out wiki-markup; edit at will! This is only a QuickStart; for more info about markup, see the help-page on markup/formatting. Have fun! ]
To start with: if you're editing a page for one of your electronics-projects, it might be a good idea to start your page with...
__NOEDITSECTION__ [[category:projects]]
...to prevent layout with many pictures in a row from being messed up ('[edit]'-links in weird places), and to add your page to the projects-list.
By the way, did you know that...
- the block of preformatted text above was done by writing its contents between "<pre>...</pre>" tags.
- to prevent the wiki from interpreting markup, you can put text in between "<nowiki>...</nowiki>" tags (just like all the examples in this paragraph :-)
- you can make a bullet-list like this one by putting a '* ' at the start of a line
- you can make text 'stand out' (like this paragraph) by enclosing it in "<blockquote>...</blockquote>" tags
- you can write italic (using ''the text'' markup, i.e. 2 single quotes) and bold text (using '''the text''' markup, i.e. 3 single quotes)
- you can insert a link to a another page inside this wiki, e.g. the CBA page, using "[[The_page_name]]". Or use an alternative link-text Like This, by using "[[The_page_name|some link-text]]" (note the double brackets)
- links to external pages -- e.g. the IRCnet #electronics home-page (note the 'external page'-indicator) -- are done in a similar way, using "[http://just.put.it/here|and optional link-text]" (note the single brackets there).
Here is the 1st section on the top-level...
...well, almost top-level. Please enclose outermost section-titles in "== ... ==" markers. Use more '=' signs to nest sections. Using a single '=' (e.g. "= My Section-title =" is considered bad practice because it displays the section- and page-title in the same font.
...and here is a subsection of the previous section
(note the nesting)
Here is another section, again on the top-level
This text is above a horizontal marker...
...and this text is below it. Insert a marker using '----' on a line by itself. Please note that you should probably use sections to make logical separations in your text, though.
