Introduction

This page documents the markdown syntax supported and used in this wiki implementation.

Formatting Sentences

Sentence structure can be solved in a number of ways seen below.

Paragraph layout
Putting a sentence simply on the next line will not make a new paragraph.
This sentence will attached to the last.

Instead put a space line between the last line to denote a new paragraph.

Links between pages and sites can be made using the format:

Page linking
[Title](page url)

Internal linking

For inner-wiki linking, use the following format.

Inner-wiki page linking
[Hedgehogs](/Extended-Wiki/wiki/Hedgehog) can be found here on this wiki.

Hedgehogs can be found here on this wiki.

Custom formatting info

Note the use of /Extended-Wiki/wiki/ in front of the markdown file name of the page. There is special logic in page to facilitate the "compressing" of the wiki page structure and as such, using the full file path of the connecting page will result in a broken link.


External linking

For external links, the page can easily be linked as would be found on other sites.

Inner-wiki page linking
[Hedgehogs](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedgehog) can be found on Wikipedia.

Hedgehogs can be found on Wikipedia.
