==Using Headings== | ==Using Headings== | ||
If | If you're going to break down your article into sections or your article is just a bunch of different lists then you need to use headings. | ||
First, you dont' need to place the article title in a heading. It's already at the top of the page. If your unhappy with the title, rename the article. | First, you dont' need to place the article title in a heading. It's already at the top of the page.

==Linking== | |||
Linking to other articles is very easy. Just place two square brackets around the name of the article: | |||
<nowiki>[[Wookie]]</nowiki> | |||
You can get a little fancy and use different text. For example if you want the link to say "an article about wookies" instead of Wookie, you would use this syntax: | |||
<nowiki>[[Wookie|an article about wookies]]</nowiki> | |||
If you want to link to another website you can simply use the full URI (including the http). For example: http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie. But like an article link, you can use different text. The only difference is that you use only one set of square brackets and you use a space instead of a pipe ('|'). Example: | |||
<nowiki>[http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie The coolest networking society ever]</nowiki> | |||
This would give: [http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie The coolest networking society ever] | |||
==Renaming articles== | |||
For the thickos amongst us (me, Gavin) if you want to rename an article click on the move link at the top when logged in. Enter the new name, eh Voila ! | |||
