Helpful Wiki Syntax

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
