Helpful Wiki Syntax
- '''fat''' lets appear the word fat like this: fat
- ''italic'' lets appear the word italic like this: italic
Linking
- LINK: A simple link looks like [http://www.address-so-and-so.com so and so]
Better link to contents of camerapedia first. External links are usually put at the end of an camerapedia text.
- LINK inside camerapedia: [[so and so]]
- You can link to a singular version of a page with a plural word by doing this [[lens]]es which renders like this lenses.
- If you'd like to link to a category, you can do something like this [[:Category:lens makers|lens makers]] which renders like this lens makers.
- If you want to stop the wiki from turning certain text into "wiki text", you can use the <nowiki></nowiki> tags. Anything between these tags shouldn't be altered by the wiki software.
Pics
The most important feature in a photographic wiki is the placement of Pictures. This wiki has no special tags for images. Use
<div class="floatright"> image-address </div> for images on the right side of the browserwindow,
and
<div class="floatleft"> image-address </div> for images on the left side of the browserwindow
remind the page Camerapedia.org:Adding_Images when you want to offer an image
