You can format your text using wiki markup. This consists of normal characters like asterisks, single quotes or equation marks 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 single quotes like <code><nowiki>''this''</nowiki></code>

An article with four or more headings will automatically create a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Section#Table_of_contents_.28TOC.29 table of contents].

This way of preformatting only applies to section formatting, and character formatting markups are still effective.

== Paragraphs ==
+
−
MediaWiki ignores normal line breaks. To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line. You can force a line break within a paragraph with the HTML tags <code><nowiki><br /></nowiki></code>.
+
−
 
+
−
== HTML ==
+
−
Some [[wikipedia:HTML|HTML]] tags are allowed in MediaWiki, for example <code><nowiki><code></nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki><div></nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki><span></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki><font></nowiki></code>. These apply anywhere you insert them.
