General Help

• MediaWiki User Guide is a great place to start for anyone who is unfamiliar with a Wiki.

How to edit a Wiki

• MediaWiki Editing has loads of info on how wiki editing works!

Some hints:

Headings

Headings are obtained by putting a number of ='s around the text.

=Heading level 1= (only really for page titles, use sparingly)
==Heading level 2==
===Heading level 3===
etc.

Links

Links to internal pages go like this: [[Raid Rules]] becomes Raid Rules.

If you want different text for internal pages: [[Raid Rules| Rules]] becomes Rules.

External links: It is usually enough to just type the URL: http://www.omnia-hq.com

If you want different text: [http://www.omnia-hq.com Omnia HQ] becomes Omnia HQ

Table formatting

You can draw up a pretty standard table this way:

 {|
 |-
 ! Header 1 !! Header 2 !! Header 3
 |-
 | || Info 1 || Info 2
 |-
 | Info 3 || Info 4 || Info 5
 |}

...which comes out like this:

Header 1	Header 2	Header 3
	Info 1	Info 2
Info 3	Info 4	Info 5

If you want a bit more structuring on your table, give it a class:

 {| class="formatted"
 |-
 ! Header 1 !! Header 2 !! Header 3
 |-
 | || Info 1 || Info 2
 |-
 | Info 3 || Info 4 || Info 5
 |}

to get this:

Header 1	Header 2	Header 3
	Info 1	Info 2
Info 3	Info 4	Info 5
