Wikitext

The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.

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>
}}
