Introduction
This cheat sheet is a quick reference for the most essential MediaWiki syntax used on the English Martinus Wiki. Use this to master formatting, linking, and the standardized citation system.
Formatting & Links
| Description | What you type | What it becomes |
|---|---|---|
| text | *italics* | ||
| text | **bold** | ||

The Citation System (Template:Ref template)
To maintain the integrity of the "world picture," all factual claims must be tied to a source section. We use the standardized Template:Ref template.
| Description | What you type | What it becomes |
|---|---|---|
| Template:Ref | [1] Livets Bog 1, section 10.1 | ||
| Template:Ref | [2] Symbol Book 2, section 17.11 |
Structure & Hierarchy
| Description | What you type | What it becomes |
|---|---|---|
| == Level 1 == === Level 3 === | (Hierarchical headings) | ||
| * Item 1 * Item 2 | (Unordered lists) | ||
| # Item 1 # Item 2 | (Ordered/Numbered lists) | ||
| : Indented text | (Indented text) |
