===Tables===
 +
Here's an example of a basic table:
 +
{| border="1"
 +
|r1c1
 +
|r1c2
 +
|-
 +
|r2c1
 +
|r2c2
 +
|-
 +
|r3c1
 +
|r3c2
 +
|}
 +
 
 +
For a cleaner look, add the class="wikitable" tag:
 +
{| class="wikitable"
 +
|r1c1
 +
|r1c2
 +
|-
 +
|r2c1
 +
|r2c2
 +
|-
 +
|r3c1
 +
|r3c2
 +
|}
 +
 
 +
This table looks just like the previous, but uses a slightly different markup style:
 +
{| class="wikitable"
 +
|r1c1 || r1c2
 +
|-
 +
|r2c1 || r2c2
 +
|-
 +
|r3c1 || r3c2
 +
|}
 +
 
 +
To add headers to your table, use the ! symbol:
 +
{| class="wikitable"
 +
!Col 1
 +
!Col 2
 +
!Col 3
 +
|-
 +
|r1c1 || r1c2 || r1c3
 +
|-
 +
|r2c1 || r2c2 || r2c3
 +
|-
 +
|r3c1 || r3c2 || r3c3
 +
|}
 +
 
 +
To add cells that span columns, use the colspan attribute:
 +
{| class="wikitable"
 +
!colspan="4" | Table header
 +
|-
 +
!Col 1
 +
!Col 2
 +
!Col 3
 +
!Col 4
 +
|-
 +
|r1c1 || r1c2 || r1c3 || r1c4

 +
|r3c1 || r3c2 || colspan="2" | subheader

1 Example Wiki Text

View the source for this page to see common formatting tags.

Paragraphs are just text. Italics are like this. Bold is like this.

Indented paragraph.


1.1 Heading level 3

  • List 1a
    • List 2a
    • List 2b
    • List 2c
  • List 1b
    1. Ordered 2a
    2. Ordered 2B
  • List 1c
Preformat text with
the "pre" tag.

Block tag processing with nowiki tag like ''this'' and *this.


1.2 Tables

Here's an example of a basic table:

r1c1 r1c2
r2c1 r2c2
r3c1 r3c2

For a cleaner look, add the class="wikitable" tag:

r1c1 r1c2
r2c1 r2c2
r3c1 r3c2

This table looks just like the previous, but uses a slightly different markup style:

r1c1 r1c2
r2c1 r2c2
r3c1 r3c2

To add headers to your table, use the ! symbol:

Col 1 Col 2 Col 3
r1c1 r1c2 r1c3
r2c1 r2c2 r2c3
r3c1 r3c2 r3c3

To add cells that span columns, use the colspan attribute:

Table header
Col 1 Col 2 Col 3 Col 4
r1c1 r1c2 r1c3 r1c4
r2c1 r2c2 r2c3 r2c4
r3c1 r3c2 subheader
r4c1 r4c2 r4c3 r4c4

Reference other sections of the wiki like this -> Beginner's Notes To create a new page, add a reference to a non-existent page like this -> Non-existent page. Save the page with the reference and simply double-click the new link to open/create the new page.

by a whitespace, and then the description of the link, like this:   
[http://www.pinwiki.com/]
(see the example below)

Example of a descriptive link which hides the link's url Power Problems

1.4 Images and Files

To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms:

[[Image:File.jpg]] to use the full version of the file 
[[Image:File.png|200px|thumb|left|alt text]] to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with 'alt text' as description
[[Media:File.ogg]] for directly linking to the file without displaying the file<br><br>
[[Media:File.ogg | description word(s)]] for directly linking to a the file without displaying the file, but adding a descriptive "hyperlink" from a word or words (see the example below)

Example of a descriptive hyperlink to a photo - This is a System 80 sound board

1.5 Creating White Space Breaks between sections

Use the <br clear=all> tag at the end of an inserted thumbnail with text, when the thumbnail is above the next subsection. If you don't, your text from the next subsection will typically rise up to the thumbnail. This is in turn really screws up the page formatting. (see GTB Sys1 Intro section for an example)
