Formatting Tools

Headings

Headings are done by surrounding your text with equals (=) signs. The number of signs on both sides is the size of the heading.

ToC

Table of contents are automatically generated when you have enough headings on the page. The sections are divided by the size of the heading used.

If you don't want a ToC, add the following to the top of the page:

__NOTOC__

If you want to add a ToC somewhere in the middle of a page, add the following at the desired location:

__TOC__

To upload an image to the server, click on the "Upload File" option located in the Toolbox on the left sidebar and follow the instructions there. If you have multiple images you want to upload, select "Upload multiple files" from the sidebar. The multiple upload link only appears in the sidebar when viewing the front page of the wiki.

To add an image to a page, [[File:ImageName.png]]

There are many image options, such as thumbnails, captions, max size, etc. and they are listed http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Images#Syntax
