 ====== Formatting Syntax ====== ====== Formatting Syntax ======
  
-[[doku>DokuWiki]] supports some simple markup language, which tries to make the datafiles to be as readable as possible. This page contains all possible syntax you may use when editing the pages. Simply have a look at the source of this page by pressing "Edit this page". If you want to try something, just use the [[playground:playground|playground]] page. The simpler markup is easily accessible via [[doku>toolbar|quickbuttons]], too.+<WRAP info>Unfinished.</WRAP>
  
-===== Basic Text Formatting =====+On Cinema on Wikis uses [[doku>DokuWiki]] for its wiki software. I (kianworld) chose this because it seemed a hell of a lot easier to set-up and use instead of [[wp>MediaWiki]]. Yeah, I could have went to Fandom or Miraheze or whatever... I didn't want to. I wanted something that I could feel less bad about maybe giving up and abandoning on, something self-hosted.
  
-DokuWiki supports **bold**, //italic//, __underlined__ and ''monospaced'' texts. Of course you can **__//''combine''//__** all these.+A big advantage of DokuWiki is the fact that articles are just simple 'ol text files. All the fancy effects are just markup (and the occasional plug-in/CSS cheat). This page is a re-write of the default [[doku>wiki:syntax|DokuWiki syntax]] page, with some unneeded lines removed and additional ones added, plus general tips about how we want articles to be written.
  
-  DokuWiki supports **bold**, //italic//, __underlined__ and ''monospaced'' texts. +===== Tone ===== 
-  Of course you can **__//''combine''//__** all these.+We're writing this wiki **in-character**, meaning we're pretending this is all real and not some elaborate 10+ year gag. Be neutral, don't write heavily from the perspective of a Timhead or a Gregghead.
  
-Note that the formatting markers have to directly enclose the text, so ''%%** bold **%%'' with spaces inside the markers will not be formatted.+I (conro101) write articles as if I were oblivious to the obvious conflict between Tim and Gregg. Don't draw too much attention to fights, call them debates or discussion. Don't place any blame on people, especially with criminal acts. For example, the carbon monoxide incident in [[:oscar7|the seventh Oscar special]] shouldn't be attributed to Gregg leaving the car on, or Tim failing to ventilate the studio. It was just an accident that happened to kill two people. Assume that everything Tim and Gregg says is true. If those two things disagree, simply say that Tim claims one thing, while Gregg alleges another.
  
-You can use <sub>subscript</sub> and <sup>superscript</sup>, too.+Occasionally, we'll break kayfabe and talk about things out-of-character. When you do, mark it **[META]** in the header of the section.
  
-  You can use <sub>subscript</sub> and <sup>superscript</sup>, too.+===== Basic Text Formatting ===== 
 + 
 +**Bold**, //italic//, __underline__, ''monospaced'' text are all supported. Unsure where you'd need ''monospace'' in this wiki, though. **//Mixing ''and'' __match__ing//** works too.

 **Paragraphs** are created from blank lines. If you want to **force a newline** without a paragraph, you can use two backslashes followed by a whitespace or the end of line. **Paragraphs** are created from blank lines.

-You can also set the alignment explicitly with a ''?left'', ''?right'' or ''?center'' parameter. This takes precedence over the whitespace alignment above and can be combined with a size.
