Help:Formatting
From ColorWiki
These are pages that help you learn how to get around in the ColorWiki and add & edit pages and the like.
If you instead need help with a color management topic, go to the ColorWiki Home page. 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 ''this''
See the MediaWiki site for more information: Formatting Text, Formatting Links Formatting Tables
Paragraphs
Mediawiki ignores normal line breaks. To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line. You can also start a newline with the HTML tag <br />.
HTML
Some HTML-Tags are allowed in MediaWiki, for example <code>, <div>, <span> and <font>.
