A Wiki?
- Firstly, what's a Wiki?
- A wiki is a site that anybody can edit, that mainly contains educational or other knowledge that needs sharing.

Wikitext Syntax
Cryptowiki borrows heavily from the most well known wiki syntax from the web and is seamlessly rendered, so the only thing you need to worry about is content! Here is the cheatsheet you get on the edit pages:
-
Cheatsheet
- To add:
- a table of contents: [[toc]]
- a heading: + heading,++,+++,++++ (The number corresponds to the size, + is the biggest)
- an interwiki link: ((Link Page)) (Please ensure that the link has the correct capitalisation)
- an extrawiki link: [http://www.link.com link text] (Please create a section for external links)
- a footnote: [http://www.reference.com] (Please create section to describe references)
- a horizontal line: ---- on a line by itself
- a new paragraph: Leave a line blank
- an image: [[picture.jpg height="50" width="50" alt="Pretty Picure"]] (Text in italics is optional)
- a mathematical equation: <m>sqrt{a^2+b^2}=c</m> (For full syntax, not yet implemented)
- a table: || cell || cell || (For a new row, go to a new line)
- a numbered list: # text (add a space to make secondary item)
- a bulleted list: * text (add a space to make secondary item)
- To format:
- bold: **text**
