Wikitext
Code
Inline code can by represented with <code></code>
Code blocks should be like:
<syntaxhighlight lang="cpp"> // ... my code here </syntaxhighlight>
Math
Math is written in standard latex syntax inside of <math></math>.
I use a modified version of SimpleMathJax: https://github.com/dli7319/SimpleMathJax3.
- Beware: Do not use
||
, use\Vert
instead. - The attribute
display
can be used to control the rendering style. See Mediawikiwiki: Extension:Math/Displaystyle.display="inline"
renders inline math inline.display="block"
renders display math which separate and centered.- Omitting display will render display math inline.
Images
See Mediawikiwiki: Help:Images.
Line Breaks
Line breaks are usually done with:
<br>
or<br />
for new lines- Two new lines for paragraph breaks
Download my extension Mediawikiwiki: Extension:LineBreaks to use two spaces and a new line as a line break.
References
Referenced are defined using the <ref>
tag inline.
I'm actually pretty opposed to formatting all references inline with the wikitext.
They should be centralized somewhere else such as in a references section.
Instead you can use Wikipedia: Help:Footnotes#List-defined_references.
{{reflist|refs=
<ref name="name1">Content</ref>
<ref name="name2">Content</ref>
<ref name="name...n">Content</ref>
}}
