Basic Wiki Formatting

Creating New Pages

To create a new page, simply begin by editing a current page and enter the markup to link to the page you want to create. [[Name of page]]. Save the current page and then click on the red link to go directly to the edit mode of the new page.

Page Titles

For consistency, major words in all page titles should be in capital letters.

Pages pertaining to specific classes should include that class in their page title. Ex. “Mounting the Collection Online” should be "Mounting the Text Class Collection Online."

You can use wiki table formatting or html table formatting

<table cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" border="1">
  <tr>
    <th>heading 1</th>
    <th>heading 2</th>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>cell 1</td>
    <td>cell 2</td>
  </tr>
</table>

{| cellpadding="15" cellspacing="0" border="1"
|-
!heading 1
!heading 2
|-
|cell 1
|cell 2
|}

OR

{| cellpadding="15" cellspacing="0" border="1"
|-
!heading 1 !! heading 2
|-
|cell 1 || cell 2
|}

Hidden Comments

You can comment in the wiki the same way you would comment in html. Use when you want to leave comments that can only be seen when editing the page.

DLXS Custom Styles

Templates for page status

There are currently 2 templates that can be applied to any page to signal a page's status.

To assign a template to a page, enter the markup below to the top of the page.

{{WorkInProgress}} will display:

This page is a work in progress. It is actively being worked on.
So don't worry if it looks kinda weird.

{{NeedsReview}} will display:

This page has been flagged by DLXS or DLXS Users as needing to be reviewed.
Until it is fully reviewed, it may contain inaccurate or difficult to follow information.

{{NextRelease}} will display:

This page contains information about a forthcoming release.
Once released, the info will be incorporated.
