changed: - Wikis are websites that everyone can edit. You can edit any existing page by clicking on the **Edit** link at the bottom, and change it however you like. You can create new pages by either using WordsAllSmashedTogether, or by enclosing [a new page title] in square brackets. You then click on the ? after the name to create the new page. Don't worry about changing things. Each version saved is backed up for a couple of weeks, so even if you totally screw things up, they can always be restored back an earlier state. There's even a WikiSandbox page for you to try stuff out. There is a **help page** link at the bottom of each page. This goes into a lot of detail about Wikis in general. I've included the most used info here: ---- <table style="background-color:#eeeeff;" width="80%" align="center"><tr><td> <h4> Formatting rules in a nutshell:</h4> <ol> <li> WikiName<a class="new" href="http://phoenix.leafe.com/phoenix/wiki/HelpPage/editform?page=WikiName" title="create this page">?</a>'s, [freeform page names in brackets]<a class="new" href="http://phoenix.leafe.com/phoenix/wiki/HelpPage/editform?page=freeform%20page%20names%20in%20brackets" title="create this page">?</a>, <a href="http://URLs">http://URLs</a> , <a href="someurl">structured text-style links</a> and <a href="http://zwiki.org/RemoteWikiLinks">ZWiki:RemoteWikiLinks</a> are made into hyperlinks</li> <li> text beginning and ending with *, **, _ or ' is <em>italic</em>, <strong>bold</strong>, <u>underlined</u> or <code>monospaced</code> respectively</li> <li> one or more non-blank lines are run together form a paragraph; blank lines separate paragraphs</li> <li> a one-line "paragraph" followed by a more-indented paragraph makes a heading</li> <li> a paragraph beginning with - or * or 0. and a space makes a bullet or numbered list item; a more-indented list item starts a sub-list</li> <li> HTML tags may be used if necessary; on sites which permit it, DTML tags (server-side code) may also be used </li> <li> Some or all of the above rules may be escaped, by putting ! at the beginning of a link or a line LikeThis; by enclosing text in single quotes <code>LikeThis</code> ; or by indenting text after a paragraph ending with a double colon : <pre> LikeThis escapes <HTML tags> and &dtml-too; </pre> </li> </ol> </td></tr></table></p> ---- <br> Font Colors <p>You can mark a length of text to appear in color by using the following tags.
