SS14:Formatting
Wait, What?
you're probably wondering what this page is for, or what "formatting" even means. Well, in short, this page contains different strings of boiler-plate wiki "code" for you to easily copy/paste into your articles without going through the hassle of writing them yourself, as well as instructions for more advanced formatting.
Basics
Creating a new page
Before we begin writing a page, we need to actually make one first. To do this, simply log into the wiki using your SS14 account, and type something in the search bar that doesn't have a page named after it. If you do, something like this should appear:
If you'd like to begin a new page with that name, simply click the red text, and presto! You've just make a new wiki page. Now, we can finally get to writing it.
Headings
If you've read to this point, you've already read through 3 separate headings. Headings are simply ways of categorizing different sections of an article, and will appear on a list near the top of the page like so:
This list is created automatically, and orders the headings by the order they appear on the page; headings that appear near the top of the page will be the first on the list, and vice versa.
There are 5 different "levels" of heading, each meant to convey a certain amount of specificity in a topic. For instance, the R&D page contains a level 1 "Equipment" heading, with several level 2 headings below it displaying the specific tools science has access to.
There are two ways to write a heading. The first is by using the wiki-integrated heading tool, which will give you a header with example text inside it. The other way is to do it manually. Both methods will have you end up with something like this
Different levels of heading require different amounts of equals signs. a level 1 heading has two on each side, a level 2 heading has 3, and so on.
