शॉर्टकट:

Wikitext, also known as Wiki markup or Wikicode, consists of the syntax and keywords used by the MediaWiki software to format a page. To learn how to see this markup, and to save an edit, see: Help:Editing. Generally, coding can be copied and pasted, without writing new code. There is a short list of markup and tips at Help:Cheatsheet.

In addition to Wikitext, some HTML elements are also allowed for presentation formatting. See Help:HTML in wikitext for information on this.

Layout

Sections

Sections in a page will follow the page's lead/introduction and (under certain conditions,) the Table of Contents.

Section headings

The = through ====== markup are headings for the sections with which they are associated.

A single = is styled as the article title and should not be used within an article.
Headings are styled through CSS and add an [edit] link. See this section for the relevant CSS.
Four or more headings cause a table of contents to be generated automatically.
Do not use any markup after the final heading markup – this will either break the heading, or will cause the heading to not be included in an edit summary.

Templates: {{fake heading}} for use in documentation.

Horizontal rule

The horizontal rule represents a paragraph-level thematic break. Do not use in article content, as rules are used only after main sections, and this is automatic.

Markup	Renders as
----

HTML equivalent: <hr />

__FORCETOC__ forces the TOC to appear at the normal location regardless of the number of headings.
__TOC__ forces the TOC to appear at the point where the magic word is inserted instead of the normal location.
__NOTOC__ disables the TOC entirely.
{{TOC limit}} can be used to control the depth of subsections included in the TOC. This is useful where the TOC is long and unwieldy.
Category:Wikipedia table of contents templates contains a number of specialized TOC templates.

Line breaks

Line breaks or newlines are used to add whitespace between lines, such as separating paragraphs.

A line break that is visible in the content is inserted by pressing ↵ Enter twice.
Pressing ↵ Enter once will place a line break in the markup, but it will not show in the rendered content, except when using list markup.
Markup such as bold or italics will be terminated at a line break.

Markup	Renders as
A single newline here has no effect on the layout. But an empty line starts a new paragraph, or ends a list or an indented part.	A single newline here has no effect on the layout. But an empty line starts a new paragraph, or ends a list or an indented part.

Templates:

{{break}} adds multiple line breaks.
{{-}} and {{clear}} adds a break with styling, to clear floating elements.
{{plainlist}} and {{unbulleted list}} both create an unbulleted list.

Indent text

Indentation is most commonly used on talk pages.

Markup

Indentation as used on talk pages:
:Each colon at the start of a line

:::(The indentation persists
so long as no carriage return or line break is used.)
:::Repeat the indentation at any line break.
::::Use an extra colon for each response.

{{Outdent|::::::}}The outdent template can give a visual indicator that we're deliberately cancelling the indent (6 levels here)

Blockquote

When there is a need for separating a block of text. This is useful for (as the name says) inserting blocks of quoted (and cited) text.

Markup	Renders as
<blockquote> The '''blockquote''' tag will indent both margins when needed instead of the left margin only as the colon does. </blockquote>	The blockquote tag will indent both margins when needed instead of the left margin only as the colon does.

Center text

Markup	Renders as
`<div class="center" style="width: auto; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">Centered text</div>`	Centered text

Template {{center}} uses the same markup. To center a table, see Help:Table#Centering tables. Please do not use <center>...</center>, as it is obsolete.
