This consists of normal characters like asterisks, apostrophes, or equal signs which have a special function in the wiki, sometimes depending on their position. For example, to format a word in italic, you include it in two pairs of apostrophes like this.

At the end of the line, if the line begins with a semicolon (;), any inserted colon (:) will not be displayed. If you want for the colon to be displayed, escape it by writing :. item 1 definition 1 item 2 definition 2-1 definition 2-2 Indent text

Single indent

Double indent

Multiple indent

This workaround may harm accessibility. Single indent Double indent Multiple indent Mixture of different types of list

1. one
2. two
   • two point one
   • two point two
3. three

   three item one

   three def one

4. four

   four def one

   this looks like a continuation

   and is often used

   instead
   of <br />

5. five
   1. five sub 1
      1. five sub 1 sub 1
   2. five sub 2

The usage of #: and *: for breaking a line within an item may also harm accessibility. one two two point one two point two three three item one three def one four four def one this looks like a continuation and is often used instead of

Start each line with a space.
Text is preformatted and
markups can be done.

This way of preformatting only applies to section formatting. Character formatting markups are still effective. Start each line with a space. Text is preformatted and markups can be done. Preformatted text blocks

Start with a space in the first column,
(before the <nowiki>).

Then your block format will be
    maintained.

This is good for copying in code blocks:

def function():
    """documentation string"""

    if True:
        print True
    else:
        print False

Paragraphs MediaWiki ignores single line breaks. To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line. You can force a line break within a paragraph with the HTML tag ‎
.

HTML tags

Some HTML tags are allowed in MediaWiki, for example ‎, ‎

, and ‎. These apply anywhere you insert them.

Inserting symbols Symbols and other special characters not available on your keyboard can be inserted in a multitude of ways. Many Operating Systems and browsers allow you to insert special characters through a menu option or Operating System panel. Additionally, you can use the WikiEditor or VisualEditor to insert them into the edit screen.

As a last resort, you can use a special sequence of characters. Those sequences are called HTML entities. For example, the following sequence (entity) → when inserted will be shown as right arrow HTML symbol → and — when inserted will be shown as an em dash HTML symbol —.

Hover over any symbol to reveal the entity that produces it. Some symbols not available in the current font will appear as empty squares.

Additionally, MediaWiki supports two non-standard entity reference sequences: ‏ and ‏ which are both considered equivalent to ‏ which is a right-to-left mark. (Used when combining right to left languages with left to right languages in the same page.)

HTML tags and symbol entities displayed themselves (with and without interpreting them) &euro; → € Typo to be corrected → Typo to be corrected <span style="color: red; text-decoration: line-through;">Typo to be corrected → Typo to be corrected Nowiki for HTML ‎ can prohibit (HTML) tags:

To print & symbol escapes as text, use "&" to replace the "&" character (eg. type " ", which results in " ").
