== Headings ==
 
An article with 4 or more headings automatically creates a table of contents. You can force a table of contents (or fine-tune its placement) by inserting <nowiki>__TOC__</nowiki>. You can suppress the table of contents by inserting <nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki>.
 
Start headings at level 2, and don't skip levels.
 
<pre>== Heading2 ==</pre>
will produce:
<h2>Heading2</h2>
 
<pre>=== Heading3 ===</pre>
will produce:
<h3>Heading3</h3>
 
<pre>==== Heading4 ====</pre>
will produce:
<h4>Heading4</h4>

== Block elements ==
 
=== Lists ===
 
<pre>
# Here is a numbered list item.
## Doubly-numbered
#* Numbered and bulleted.
 
* Here is a bulleted list item.
** Doubly-bulleted
*# Bulleted and numbered.
*# Another item.
</pre>
 
will produce:
# Here is a numbered list item.
## Doubly-numbered
#* Numbered and bulleted.
 
* Here is a bulleted list item.
** Doubly-bulleted
*# Bulleted and numbered.
*# Another item.
 
Blank lines, or non-bulleted/numbered lines, end the lists.
 
 
Each of these:
<pre>
;item: Body text
{{Define|item|Body text}}
</pre>
 
will produce:
;item: Body text
 
The second markup option also wraps a <code><nowiki><span id="item"></nowiki></code> around the block.
 
 
=== Indenting unstyled text ===
 
<b>:</b> Simply indented text (on left side only).
&lt;blockquote>This is a blockquote.
It collapses whitespace, and indents on both sides.&lt;/blockquote>
 
will produce:
: Simply indented text (on left side only).
 
<blockquote>This is a blockquote.
It collapses whitespace, and indents on both sides.</blockquote>
 
<!--
<center> is deprecated; use <div class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;">Centered text</div>
-->
 
=== Displaying code ===
 
<dl>
<dt id="inlinecode">Inline code
<dd>Use <code>&lt;code></code> for styling, and <code>&lt;nowiki></code> to suppress markup. If you use both, they must appear in that order. <code>&lt;nowiki></code> <nowiki>converts &rarr; entities and collapses whitespace </nowiki>(even multiple <code>\n</code>s),<nowiki> but ignores all '''wiki''' and <span style="color:green">HTML</span> [[markup]]</nowiki>.
 
 
<dt>User input
<dd>{{Cmd|{{lb}}[[Template:Cmd|Cmd]]{{!}}a &lt;var><var>command</var>&lt;/var> to try{{rb}}}}
This is a block-level equivalent for the inline HTML element <kbd> (which the wiki does not process). Note that wiki markup is still honored in the command text; but whitespace is not collapsed.
 
 
<dt>Command output; or shell sessions that intermix prompts, user input, and command output; or segments of files
<dd>Use space-indented blocks or <code>&lt;pre></code>:
<pre>
Every line
begins with '''a space'''.
 
<pre>
Lines aren't
indented with '''a space.'''
&lt;/pre>
 
&lt;nowiki>Only first
line begins with '''a space'''.&lt;/nowiki>
</pre>
 
will produce:
 
Every line
begins with '''a space'''.
 
<pre>
Lines aren't
indented with '''a space.'''
</pre>
 
<nowiki>Only first
line begins with '''a space'''.</nowiki>
 
All of these render as styled blocks, in monospace, and don't collapse whitespace. They are block-level equivalents for the inline HTML elements <code>&lt;code></code> or <code>&lt;samp></code> (which the wiki does not process).
 
All of these markup options convert &rarr; entities. The first also processes <nowiki>'''wiki''' and <span style="color:green">HTML</span> [[markup]]</nowiki>.
<!-- Can contain any inline element except: IMG OBJECT BIG SMALL SUP SUB -->
The second and the third don't; and they give equivalent presentations. With the third option, lines after the first should not be space-prefixed; the block will extend to the closing <code>&lt;/nowiki></code>.
 
<dt>File contents
<dd><pre>
{{Cat|/path/to/file|body '''text''' <br /> more
Second line.}}
</pre>
 
will produce:
{{Cat|/path/to/file|body '''text''' <br /> more
Second line.}}
Note that wiki and HTML markup in the file contents aren't coverted, though entities still are. You must escape characters as follows:
: {{=}} not inside [[..]] use &amp;#61; or {{lb}}{{=}}{{rb}}
: {{!}} not inside [[..]] use &amp;#124; or {{lb}}!{{rb}}
: {{lb}}                  use &amp;#123; twice or {{lb}}lb{{rb}}
: {{rb}}                  use &amp;#125; twice or {{lb}}rb{{rb}}
: unmatched &#91;&#91;        use &amp;#91; twice
: unmatched &#93;&#93;        use &amp;#93; twice
 
 
<dt>Block-level code with no additional styling
<dd><pre>
<p style="white-space:pre; font-family:monospace;">One line.
Second line.
</p></pre>
will produce:
<p style="white-space:pre; font-family:monospace;">One line.
Second line.
</p>
This would be the behavior of HTML's &lt;pre> without any styling. To wrap to screen width, use {white-space:pre-wrap}.

Options can appear in any order:
* <i>Caption text</i> defaults to filename; to wholly suppress, use <code>&lt;span title="">&lt;/span></code>
* '''alt='''<i>text</i>
* Size can be [<i>width</i>][<b>x</b><i>height</i>]<b>px</b>
* '''page='''<i>number</i>, for PDF images
* rendered inline, Caption shows as hover text: '''frameless''', and/or '''border'''
** rendered inline, on separate line: '''none'''
** Valign for inline images, defaults to middle: '''middle|baseline|sub|super|top|text-top|bottom|text-bottom'''
** Text flow can be stopped by placing <nowiki>{{Clear}}</nowiki> <!-- <code>&lt;br style="clear:both" /></code> --> before the text that should start below the floating image
** '''link='''<i>URL</i>|<i>pagetitle</i>|<i>blank</i>, only for inline images
* rendered floating, defaults to right align, Caption displayed below image: '''thumb''', '''thumb='''<i>alternate filename</i>, '''frame''' (ignores size options)
** rendered floating, defaults to thumb: '''left|right|center'''
 
To instead link to the file, you need to add a colon: [[:File:Alpinelinux 01.png]].

Every page should be assigned at least one [[Special:Categories|Category]], by placing the following '''at the bottom of the page''':
<pre>[[Category:Category name]]</pre>
