Help Wiki Style Guide for Contributors

This is a short guide on how to use Wikicode and what styles to use when creating content.

Headings

Each page has a main heading which is automatically generated when the page is created. [when/how to create a page]

Secondary headings are created by putting two equal signs (==) on each side of the heading name.

Level three headings use three equal signs (===), etc. Here is how the headings look:

Heading Two

Heading Three

Heading Four

Formatting

Make text bold by using three apostrophes () on each side of the text you want bold. These are bold words.

Make text italic by using two apostrophes () on each side of the text you want bold. These are italic words.

Adding Images

Format: [[File:file_name.png|frame|none|700px|put a caption here]]

Marking Up Images

Images which need arrows, callouts, etc should be edited in Snagit and use the following styles: Color: #FF3333 (Red) Arrow, thin: 7px, no shadow, square ends Arrow, thick: 20px, no shadow, square ends Numbering: Red circle with white numbers Section Callouts: Square, red outline with 3 pixel width Text Callouts: Red text in Arial font
