You can format your text by using wiki markup. This consists of normal characters like asterisks, apostrophes or equal signs which have a special function in the wiki, sometimes depending on their position. For example, to format a word in ''italic'', you include it in two pairs of apostrophes like <code><nowiki>''this''</nowiki></code>.

== Paragraphs == 


MediaWiki ignores single line breaks. To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line. You can force a line break within a paragraph with the HTML tag <code> </code>.

== HTML tags == 


Some [[wikipedia:HTML|HTML]] tags are allowed in MediaWiki, for example <code><code></code>, <code><div></code>, <code><nowiki></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki></nowiki></code>. These apply anywhere you insert them.

== Inserting symbols == 


Symbols and other special characters not available on your keyboard can be inserted in a multitude of ways. Many [http://www.howtogeek.com/210824/how-to-quickly-type-special-characters-on-any-computer-smartphone-or-tablet/ Operating Systems and browsers] allow you to insert special characters through a menu option or Operating System panel. Additionally, you can use the WikiEditor or [[VisualEditor/Special characters|VisualEditor]] to insert them into the edit screen.


As a last resort, you can use a special sequence of characters. Those sequences are called HTML entities. For example, the following sequence (entity) '''&rarr;''' when inserted will be shown as <ins>right arrow</ins> HTML symbol → and '''&mdash;''' when inserted will be shown as an <ins>em dash</ins> HTML symbol —. </translate>
----
{{note|<translate> Hover over any character to find out the symbol that it produces. Some symbols not available in the current font will appear as empty squares.</translate>}}

See the list of all HTML entities on the Wikipedia article [[wikipedia:List of HTML entities|List of HTML entities]]. Additionally, MediaWiki supports two non-standard entity reference sequences: <code>&רלמ;</code> and <code>&رلم;</code> which are both considered equivalent to <code>&rlm;</code> which is a [[wikipedia:Right-to-left mark|right-to-left mark]]. (Used when combining right to left languages with left to right languages in the same page.)

=== Nowiki for HTML === 
</translate>

* <nowiki><<</nowiki>nowiki />pre>  → <<nowiki/>pre>
<translate> But ''not'' & symbol escapes:</translate>
* &<<nowiki />nowiki />amp;  → &
<translate>
To print & symbol escapes as text, use "<code>&amp;</code>" to replace the "&" character (eg. type "<code>&amp;nbsp;</code>", which results in "<code>&nbsp;</code>").
