How to contribute to www.SklogWiki.org

Open access

Sklogwiki is, and hopefully will remain, open-access. That is to say, anybody with an internet connection can contribute to and edit SklogWiki. Here is how to do so...

How to edit a page

At the top of each page there are a number of 'tabs' with various functions:

To edit a page simply click on 'edit'. This will open a region at the bottom of the page in which you can work.

Basic syntax

To add Bold text encapsulate the text within three apostrophes: '''Bold text'''
To add Italic text encapsulate the text within two apostrophes: ''Italic text''
To add both bold & italic text use five apostrophes: '''''bold & italic'''''
To add a link to a page within SklogWiki encapsulate the text within two square parenthesis [[page to link to]]
External links are encapsulated within a single square parenthesis, for example:

[http://www.example.org] results in [1]
[http://www.example.org display text]results in display text
http://www.example.org results in http://www.example.org

To add headlines:

Level 1

== Level 1 ==

Level 2

=== Level 2 ===

Level 3

==== Level 3 ====

Level 4

===== Level 4 =====

Level 5

====== Level 5 ======

To create a bullet list:
* one
* two
** two point one
* three

results in:

• one
• two
  • two point one
• three

To create a numbered list: # one
# two
## two point one
# three

results in

1. one
2. two
   1. two point one
3. three

and finally, to add a 'thumbnail image on the right hand side of the page:

All of these functions can be accessed by typing the mark-up directly, or by using the icons located at the top of the edit region.
