Wiki pages are written in a very simple markup language. You can click the edit button on any page and enter marked-up content into the box and click save, and the new changes will appear instantly on the page. You can probably deduce all of the markup that you need by looking at an existing page, but as a quick reference I provide the most used syntax below. (Note that if you look at the source code, you will see that I use the <nowiki><nowiki></nowiki></nowiki>tag to prevent the wiki from interpreting the code.
===Bullets, Indents and Boxes=== At the start of a line:===
*<nowiki>* to bullet</nowiki>
*<nowiki># to number bullet</nowiki>
<nowiki>to put things in a box</nowiki>
'''===Headers=== To make headers heirarchiarly (TOC is automatic) use:'''
*<nowiki>=Page header=</nowiki>
*<nowiki>==Section header==</nowiki>- The Quick Hint Section uses this*<nowiki>===Sub-Section header===</nowiki>- "Headers" is a sub-section
*<nowiki>====Sub-Sub-Section header===</nowiki>
'''To link===Links=== There are two types of links:'''*<nowiki>[http:/www... Text that you want] for are external links</nowiki>*<nowiki>[[WikiPage | Text that you want] or just [[WikiPage]] for external are internal links</nowiki>
With the first link, a space after the URL indicated that the text that follows is the label. With the second link, the text following the pipe <nowiki>(|)</nowiki> indicates the label. You can leave the pipe and text off and then the page link will show up as the page name, like this: <nowiki>[[BPP]]</nowiki> gives [[BPP]].
'''===Create A Page'''===
If you want to create a new page, make a link to a page name that doesn't exist, save the page, and then click the link!
'''===Basic Text Formatting'''=== Use text formatting sparingly:
*To make things ''italic'' put them in two quotes: <nowiki>''italic''</nowiki>
*To make things '''bold''' put them in three quotes: <nowiki>'''bold'''</nowiki>
*To make things '''''bold-italic''''' put them in five quotes: <nowiki>''''bold-italic'''' </nowiki>
