__TOC__

==Wiki editing==

Below you can find a '''cheatsheet''' with commonly used wikitext mark-up.

But first of all, it's good to know is that there are two editors that you can use to edit your text:

===Visual editor===

* to use it, click <code>Edit</code>
* uses a WYSIWYG editor
* [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:VisualEditor/User_guide Visual editor user guide]

===Wikitext editor===

* to use it, click <code>Edit source</code>
* uses a specific mark up language: wikitext
* [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting Wiki syntax user guide]

==cheatsheet==

'''''bold and italics'''''

==standard header==

===next-level header=== (...and so on)

[[Internal link]]

[[Internal link|alternate text]]

;term : definition

[[File:Image-name.jpg|thumb|frame|Caption text]]

{{:Transcluded page name}}

{{Template name}} (call to template)

#REDIRECT [[Page name]]</nowiki>

==editing==
'''How to write on the wiki?'''

Writing on a wiki is not not very different from writing a blog.

You have a '''Read''' and '''Edit''' mode.

'''Edit''' lets you enter content and make changes to existing content.

While you are editing, you can preview your changes in the '''Preview''' window.

Once done editing <span style="background:yellow">'''save the page'''</span>, otherwise your contribution will be lost.

===Title Headings===
You can make titles with different hierarchic levels by using "=" as follows:

<nowiki>=Main Title=</nowiki>

<nowiki>==Sub Title==</nowiki>

<nowiki>===Sub-sub Title===</nowiki>

<nowiki>===Sub-sub-sub Title===</nowiki>

You can place content under each of these section

===page creation===
'''How to create a page?'''

In a wiki the information is organized into pages or articles ( no great distinction between the two). If you want to say something about something for which there isn't a page, you create that page and start writing its content.

To create a page create '''internal links''' <nowiki>[[name of new page]]</nowiki> for that page

The other easy way to create is to use the search function with the name of the page you want to create.
When searching, you are given the possibility to create that page.

<span style="background:yellow">
Note: For your work you should use sub pages under your user namespace.
<nowiki>[[User:yourusername/mypage]]</nowiki>
</span>

* <span style="color:red">Red</span> link = previously non-existing page.
* <span style="color:blue">Blue</span> link = existing page.

[[Wiki]] - an existing page

[[oooooooo]] - an non-existing page

===Links===

There are two kinds of links:

* internal (to another wiki page)
* external (to anything outside this wiki)

====internal links====

So, when you want to make a link to a page on this wiki:

<nowiki>[[name of page]]</nowiki>

For example a link to the Main Page looks like:

<nowiki>[[Main Page]]</nowiki>

will result in: [[Main Page]]

<span style="background:yellow">Note: these links are case sensitive.</span>

====external links====

You can write external links in different ways:

Just by pasting a URL:

<nowiki>https://xpub.nl/</nowiki>: https://xpub.nl/

Using link text:

<nowiki>[https://xpub.nl/ XPUB's website]</nowiki>: [https://xpub.nl/ XPUB's website]

Or as a "footnote"

<nowiki>[https://xpub.nl/]</nowiki>: [https://xpub.nl/]

==== red links ====

Significantly, wikis allow links to pages that do not (yet) exist. These are called "[[redlinks]]" (typically they appear in red to differentiate from "blue" normal links). In this was editors can write with links without knowing (or caring) if a given page exists. Redlinks can form a "potential page" or "todo" articles that when created in the future, will already be linked. Non-existent (redlink) Pages do display backlinks even before they are given any content (though they will not appear in [[Special:AllPages]], they can be seen via [[Special:WantedPages]])

===Audio-visuals===

====uploading images====
You probably want not only to write, but also to use images, audio and video on the pages you'll be developing.

Wiki allows the following formats:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! '''Medium''' !! '''Formats'''
|-
| image || png, gif, jpg, jpeg, svg
|-
| audio || ogg, mp3
|-
| video || ogv, webm, mp4
|}

'''To upload''' you can use the picture icon on the menu. It asks you for the file name of the file you are going to upload (they must match) and a caption, if you to say something about that image, video, or audio.

The syntax to insert an image:

<nowiki>[[File:myimage.png|My caption]]</nowiki>

Captions can be added to images by using a vertical bar (the "pipe"):

<nowiki>[[File:myimage.jpg|Caption under the image]] </nowiki>

====Audio====

Download the Widgets extension: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Widgets

And copy the full content of this page to your wiki, in a page called "Widget:Audio": https://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mediadesign/Widget:Audio

====Video files====

Using <code><nowiki>{{#Widget:Video}}</nowiki></code>

This widget is configured on this page: [[Widget:Video]]

You can use it in this way:

<nowiki>
{{#Widget:Video|webm=http://url.to/your.webm|mp4=http://url.to/your.mp4|style=}}
</nowiki>

For example:

<nowiki>
{{#Widget:Video|mp4=https://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mw-mediadesign/images/a/af/Traffic_lights.mp4|style=height:200px;float:right;}}
</nowiki>

currently the wiki upload file size limit is set for 20M.

If you want to show a big video file, please upload your video to YouTube or Vimeo and embed it in the page.

====Youtube/Vimeo videos====

'''example code for embedding videos from YouTube and Vimeo'''

====='''Youtube:'''=====

{{#ev:youtube|d8OexIJVhNc}}

====='''Vimeo:'''=====

{{#ev:vimeo|916350262}}

===== code explanation =====

{{#ev:youtube|d8OexIJVhNc|640|center|My video caption}}

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
the video above is use the code:
{{#ev:youtube|d8OexIJVhNc|640|center|My video caption}}

the embedding video code follow the structure:
{{#ev:service|id|width|alignment|description}}

in this case, the service = youtube
id = URL address because the URL is
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8OexIJVhNc&ab_channel=beyondthebeyond
if you go to share--> embed and copy the code, it will be like:
https://youtu.be/d8OexIJVhNc?si=69biyPrPpUVuCHlX
and the id is: d8OexIJVhNc
width is in pixels
alignment could be left, center or right.
description could be a video caption or leave it empty.

</syntaxhighlight>

===Changing page titles===

Pages' titles can be changed by using the function '''Move''' in the top right corner in a dropdown menu next to the star.

The Move page permits you to attribute a new name to the current page. Move lets you effectively rename a page. By default, a move shifts content to the new title, and creates a redirect from the old title to the new one; in this way links to the old page will not break and will simply redirect to the correct page. In this way, a move is consistent with the wiki attitude of keeping history visible.

Move = (Copy and Paste) + (Redirect or Delete)

=== Deleting pages ===

Deleting a page is also possible. Note however that a delete is simply a way of marking that page as deleted. While the title will no longer appear in search results or in Special:All pages, the page history can still be viewed.

=== Citations ===

(to check) Using the extension Cite, the wiki supports making proper academic style footnotes. It works by putting your reference directly into your text surrounded by the "ref" tag, e.g. <nowiki><ref>Yaron Koren, p. 3</ref></nowiki>

=== Page History / version tracking ===

(to write)

=== Special:RecentChanges ===

[[Special:RecentChanges]]

=== Special:AllPages ===

Special:AllPages gives an alphabetical listing of all pages. It's a kind of index.

[[Special:AllPages]]

=== Redirect ===

Redirects add a bit of the thesaurus to the wiki. Redirects can be used to establish synonyms, and to specify a preferred title or term (the page that actually holds the content). Special pages (like the "index" Special:All pages) and functions like "Backlinks" respect redirects and generally show the preferred title.

<nowiki>
#REDIRECT [[Better title]]
</nowiki>

=== HTML + CSS===
* Simple HTML tags and CSS rules can be used and are allowed by default
* HTML comments work too! <nowiki></nowiki>
* if you want to publish code on a wiki page with syntax highlighting, you can use a <nowiki><syntaxhighlight></nowiki> element:

<nowiki>
<syntaxhighlight lang="html">
<h1>Hello wiki!</h1>
</syntaxhighlight>
</nowiki>

Which will look like this:

<syntaxhighlight lang="html">
<h1>Hello wiki!</h1>
</syntaxhighlight>

=== nowiki ===

HTML like tag that allows to include stuff that the wiki won't touch

<nowiki><nowiki></nowiki>

=== Categories ===

* <nowiki>[[Category: People]]</nowiki>
* Categories can themselves be tagged with categories to create hierarchies
* Extensions exist to make working with (hierarchical) categories easier

To link to a category page without tagging the current page with that category, add a colon at the start.

* See <nowiki>[[:Category:Fish]]</nowiki> produces [[:Category:Fish]].

=== Transclusion ===
<nowiki>
{{:Name of page}}
</nowiki>

=== Templates ===

Template = Transclusion + Substitution

* Parameters, Named and positional (demo)
* Parser Functions?
* includeonly, ...

To dive into templates, see: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Templates

=== Variables ===

* <nowiki>{{CURRENTPAGE}}</nowiki>
* <nowiki>{{CURRENTTIME}}</nowiki>
* <nowiki>{{CURRENTUSER}}</nowiki>
* <nowiki>{{NUMBEROFPAGES}}</nowiki> ?

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Variables

=== Behavior switches ===

"Switches"
* <nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki>
* <nowiki>__NOINDEX__</nowiki>
* <nowiki>__HIDDENCAT__</nowiki> : don't show this category

Switches with parameters:

How to use the wiki

2025-06-22T09:05:58Z

PJaneiro:

For more details about Wikis, a historical perspective and some of its many possibilities, see the [[Wiki]] page.

The current page is a user editing and technical how-to guide, and the original source is from https://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mediadesign/Wiki_Tutorial

For more information on to contribute to Filwerkplaats wiki, visit FWP wiki guidelines.

It's a wiki, feel free to edit it!

__TOC__

==Wiki editing==

Below you can find a '''cheatsheet''' with commonly used wikitext mark up.

But first of all, it's good to know is that there are two editors that you can use to edit your text:

===Visual editor===

* to use it, click <code>Edit</code>
* uses a WYSIWYG editor
* [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:VisualEditor/User_guide Visual editor user guide]

===Wikitext editor===

* to use it, click <code>Edit source</code>
* uses a specific mark up language: wikitext
* [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting Wiki syntax user guide]

#REDIRECT [[Page name]]</nowiki>

==editing==
'''How to write on the wiki?'''

Writing on a wiki is not not very different from writing a blog.

You have a '''Read''' and '''Edit''' mode.

'''Edit''' lets you enter content and make changes to existing content.

While you are editing, you can preview your changes in the '''Preview''' window.

Once done editing <span style="background:yellow">'''save the page'''</span>, otherwise your contribution will be lost.

===Title Headings===
You can make titles with different hierarchic levels by using "=" as follows:

<nowiki>=Main Title=</nowiki>

<nowiki>==Sub Title==</nowiki>

<nowiki>===Sub-sub Title===</nowiki>

<nowiki>===Sub-sub-sub Title===</nowiki>

You can place content under each of these section

===page creation===
'''How to create a page?'''

In a wiki the information is organized into pages or articles ( no great distinction between the two). If you want to say something about something for which there isn't a page, you create that page and start writing its content.

To create a page create '''internal links''' <nowiki>[[name of new page]]</nowiki> for that page

The other easy way to create is to use the search function with the name of the page you want to create.
When searching, you are given the possibility to create that page.

<span style="background:yellow">
Note: For your work you should use sub pages under your user namespace.
<nowiki>[[User:yourusername/mypage]]</nowiki>
</span>

* <span style="color:red">Red</span> link = previously non-existing page.
* <span style="color:blue">Blue</span> link = existing page.

[[Wiki]] - an existing page

[[oooooooo]] - an non-existing page

===Links===

There are two kinds of links:

* internal (to another wiki page)
* external (to anything outside this wiki)

====internal links====

So, when you want to make a link to a page on this wiki:

<nowiki>[[name of page]]</nowiki>

For example a link to the Main Page looks like:

<nowiki>[[Main Page]]</nowiki>

will result in: [[Main Page]]

<span style="background:yellow">Note: these links are case sensitive.</span>

====external links====

You can write external links in different ways:

Just by pasting a URL:

<nowiki>https://xpub.nl/</nowiki>: https://xpub.nl/

Using link text:

<nowiki>[https://xpub.nl/ XPUB's website]</nowiki>: [https://xpub.nl/ XPUB's website]

Or as a "footnote"

<nowiki>[https://xpub.nl/]</nowiki>: [https://xpub.nl/]

==== red links ====

Significantly, wikis allow links to pages that do not (yet) exist. These are called "[[redlinks]]" (typically they appear in red to differentiate from "blue" normal links). In this was editors can write with links without knowing (or caring) if a given page exists. Redlinks can form a "potential page" or "todo" articles that when created in the future, will already be linked. Non-existent (redlink) Pages do display backlinks even before they are given any content (though they will not appear in [[Special:AllPages]], they can be seen via [[Special:WantedPages]])

===Audio-visuals===

====uploading images====
You probably want not only to write, but also to use images, audio and video on the pages you'll be developing.

Wiki allows the following formats:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! '''Medium''' !! '''Formats'''
|-
| image || png, gif, jpg, jpeg, svg
|-
| audio || ogg, mp3
|-
| video || ogv, webm, mp4
|}

'''To upload''' you can use the picture icon on the menu. It asks you for the file name of the file you are going to upload (they must match) and a caption, if you to say something about that image, video, or audio.

The syntax to insert an image:

<nowiki>[[File:myimage.png|My caption]]</nowiki>

Captions can be added to images by using a vertical bar (the "pipe"):

<nowiki>[[File:myimage.jpg|Caption under the image]] </nowiki>

====Audio====

Download the Widgets extension: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Widgets

And copy the full content of this page to your wiki, in a page called "Widget:Audio": https://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mediadesign/Widget:Audio

====Video files====

Using <code><nowiki>{{#Widget:Video}}</nowiki></code>

This widget is configured on this page: [[Widget:Video]]

You can use it in this way:

<nowiki>
{{#Widget:Video|webm=http://url.to/your.webm|mp4=http://url.to/your.mp4|style=}}
</nowiki>

For example:

<nowiki>
{{#Widget:Video|mp4=https://pzwiki.wdka.nl/mw-mediadesign/images/a/af/Traffic_lights.mp4|style=height:200px;float:right;}}
</nowiki>

currently the wiki upload file size limit is set for 20M.

If you want to show a big video file, please upload your video to YouTube or Vimeo and embed it in the page.

====Youtube/Vimeo videos====

'''example code for embedding videos from YouTube and Vimeo'''

====='''Youtube:'''=====

{{#ev:youtube|d8OexIJVhNc}}

====='''Vimeo:'''=====

{{#ev:vimeo|916350262}}

===== code explanation =====

{{#ev:youtube|d8OexIJVhNc|640|center|My video caption}}

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">
the video above is use the code:
{{#ev:youtube|d8OexIJVhNc|640|center|My video caption}}

the embedding video code follow the structure:
{{#ev:service|id|width|alignment|description}}

in this case, the service = youtube
id = URL address because the URL is
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8OexIJVhNc&ab_channel=beyondthebeyond
if you go to share--> embed and copy the code, it will be like:
https://youtu.be/d8OexIJVhNc?si=69biyPrPpUVuCHlX
and the id is: d8OexIJVhNc
width is in pixels
alignment could be left, center or right.
description could be a video caption or leave it empty.

</syntaxhighlight>

===Changing page titles===

Pages' titles can be changed by using the function '''Move''' in the top right corner in a dropdown menu next to the star.

The Move page permits you to attribute a new name to the current page. Move lets you effectively rename a page. By default, a move shifts content to the new title, and creates a redirect from the old title to the new one; in this way links to the old page will not break and will simply redirect to the correct page. In this way, a move is consistent with the wiki attitude of keeping history visible.

Move = (Copy and Paste) + (Redirect or Delete)

=== Deleting pages ===

Deleting a page is also possible. Note however that a delete is simply a way of marking that page as deleted. While the title will no longer appear in search results or in Special:All pages, the page history can still be viewed.

=== Citations ===

(to check) Using the extension Cite, the wiki supports making proper academic style footnotes. It works by putting your reference directly into your text surrounded by the "ref" tag, e.g. <nowiki><ref>Yaron Koren, p. 3</ref></nowiki>

=== Page History / version tracking ===

(to write)

=== Special:RecentChanges ===

[[Special:RecentChanges]]

=== Special:AllPages ===

Special:AllPages gives an alphabetical listing of all pages. It's a kind of index.

[[Special:AllPages]]

=== Redirect ===

Redirects add a bit of the thesaurus to the wiki. Redirects can be used to establish synonyms, and to specify a preferred title or term (the page that actually holds the content). Special pages (like the "index" Special:All pages) and functions like "Backlinks" respect redirects and generally show the preferred title.

<nowiki>
#REDIRECT [[Better title]]
</nowiki>

=== HTML + CSS===
* Simple HTML tags and CSS rules can be used and are allowed by default
* HTML comments work too! <nowiki></nowiki>
* if you want to publish code on a wiki page with syntax highlighting, you can use a <nowiki><syntaxhighlight></nowiki> element:

<nowiki>
<syntaxhighlight lang="html">
<h1>Hello wiki!</h1>
</syntaxhighlight>
</nowiki>

Which will look like this:

<syntaxhighlight lang="html">
<h1>Hello wiki!</h1>
</syntaxhighlight>

=== nowiki ===

HTML like tag that allows to include stuff that the wiki won't touch

<nowiki><nowiki></nowiki>

=== Categories ===

* <nowiki>[[Category: People]]</nowiki>
* Categories can themselves be tagged with categories to create hierarchies
* Extensions exist to make working with (hierarchical) categories easier

To link to a category page without tagging the current page with that category, add a colon at the start.

* See <nowiki>[[:Category:Fish]]</nowiki> produces [[:Category:Fish]].

=== Transclusion ===
<nowiki>
{{:Name of page}}
</nowiki>

=== Templates ===

Template = Transclusion + Substitution

* Parameters, Named and positional (demo)
* Parser Functions?
* includeonly, ...

To dive into templates, see: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Templates

=== Variables ===

* <nowiki>{{CURRENTPAGE}}</nowiki>
* <nowiki>{{CURRENTTIME}}</nowiki>
* <nowiki>{{CURRENTUSER}}</nowiki>
* <nowiki>{{NUMBEROFPAGES}}</nowiki> ?

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Magic_words#Variables

=== Behavior switches ===

"Switches"
* <nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki>
* <nowiki>__NOINDEX__</nowiki>
* <nowiki>__HIDDENCAT__</nowiki> : don't show this category

Switches with parameters:
