Tutorial

Hello, and welcome to the tutorial page. The information here is a combination of instructions on how to effectively use the wiki editor to post your content, as well as some notes and tips on any quirks you may run into. Most of the features of the WikiEditor extension's toolbar are self-explanatory, but what follows are some notes on their use.

General Notes

• It is almost always easier to format your content by writing it first, then highlighting sections and clicking the appropriate buttons (e.g. bold, no wiki formatting, etc.)
• Disambiguation for pages is currently a work-in-progress. Please make a note to label setting-specific content with your setting name, e.g. "thecbg.org/wiki/Races_(Fractal_Galaxy)" rather than just "thecbg.org/wiki/Races", so that we can facilitate proper disambiguation pages and so that your pages won't have to be relocated by an administrator.
• The "Random Page" functionality is currently broken.

Creating a Table of Contents

Adding a TOC to your page is as simple as adding "__TOC__" near the top of the page. This will pick up any headings you add to the page for easier navigation (see below).

Headings

• There are five heading options of varying sizes that can help in dividing your content, listed as "Level 2" through "Level 5" in the Heading drop-down, as well as the title heading. The latter is normally reserved only for page titles (e.g. the all-caps "TUTORIAL" at the top of this page), but if you would like to use it multiple times, you can wrap your text like so: = Heading 1= .
• Keep in mind that any headings you add to your page will show up in the page's Table of Contents, if you add one.

Lists

There are two kinds of lists available: "Bulleted" and "Numbered":

• Bulleted lists are denoted by "*" characters;
• Numbered lists are denoted by "#" characters.

# This will make # a numbered list

* This will make * a bulleted list
