The headings divide the sections of the wiki, examples being the "Text Formatting" and "Section Formatting" headers for this page. It goes down to Level 6 with six (======) on each side. Having more than 3 headings on a page will auto-generate a table of contents.

Aka this block ^
 
Aka this block ^
 +
 +
Can be done by typing a space at the beginning of a line or by
 +
 +
<nowiki><pre> This </pre></nowiki>
 +
<pre> This </pre>
 +
 +
Regular text formatting like Bold, italics, etc works inside of this.
 +
 +
'''<big>Underline and Strikethrough</big>'''
 +
<nowiki><ins>Text</ins></nowiki> or <nowiki><u>Text</u></nowiki> will make this:
 +
 +
<u>Text </u>.
 +
 +
<nowiki><del>Text</del></nowiki> or <nowiki><s>Text</s></nowiki> will make this:
 +
 +
<s>Text</s>
 +
<big>'''Quotes'''</big>
 +
<nowiki><q>Quote</q></nowiki>
 +
 +
<q>Quote</q>
 +
 +
This does nothing special besides adding quotation marks to the text, so I would just use them normally instead of the extra code.
 +
<big>'''Source Comments'''</big>
 +
<nowiki><!-- This is a comment --> </nowiki>
 +
 +
Adding the <nowiki><!--</nowiki> and ending it with a > makes a comment that only page editors can see when using the "Edit Source" button.
 +
 +
==Symbols==
 +
Symbols can be added with HTML formatting, using [[wikipedia:List_of_XML_and_HTML_character_entity_references|this]] Wikipedia page to get the symbol name from the "Names" Category on the table there.
 +
 +
&amp;copy; would make this symbol : &copy;
 +
 +
All you need is &symbolname; (and symbol, the symbol name, and a semicolon).
 +
 +
==Tables==
 +
They made a better [[mediawikiwiki:Help:Tables|tutorial]] than one I can write.
 +
===Navboxes and Infoboxes===
 +
Copy and edit the values from the code on these pages.
 +
Infobox Template: [https://wiki.machinamaincluster.com/index.php/Template:Infobox/Queen Page] (Ignore everything under the comment in Source edit.
 +
 +
Navbox Template: [https://wiki.machinamaincluster.com/index.php/Template:Machina Page] (This is just to show how it is formatted, to make your own you will need to make a page called Template:Navboxname and format it like this one.)
