Will show up on the page as a plain line of text, without any line breaks. You need to add a <nowiki><br></nowiki> tag to each line you want to format below the next. It's also possible to use pointed or numbered lists for breaks. Read above about lists.
====Preformatted Boxes====
There are three types of links that can be used; either a clickable URL, a clickable number in brackets, or a clickable link title. The last one work very similar to internal links. Do note that it isn't possible to add letters at the end of an external link to make it part of the link title. The entire link title needs to be within the brackets.
====Regular URL Link====
http://www.diii.net/
</pre></blockquote>
Will display like this:----http://www.diii.net/<br>----In cases where it's needed to whow show the whole urlURL, just write it out in the document, and it will automatically be parsed.
====Numbered Link====
[http://www.diii.net/]
</pre></blockquote>
Will display like this:----[http://www.diii.net/]----
This is a numbered link that is excellent to use when sourcing other pages. It will be numbered from how many similar links are on a document, so the first such link is <nowiki>[1]</nowiki>, and the third one is <nowiki>[3]</nowiki>.
====Link in Title====
[http://www.diii.net/ Diii.net with custom title]<br>
</pre></blockquote>
Will display like this:----[http://www.diii.net/ Diii.net with custom title]<br>----
This is naturally the most commonly used link, and is used much like the internal links.
====External Links Without Icon====
As you can see the wiki code 'looks' like a table and you can expand on this and format more complex tables. It's easy enough to look at other tables as well, to get inspiration if you want to do more advanced things with it.
* Read more about tables in the [[Help:Table|Table Help page]].
==Categories==
Categories and subcategories are the backbone of a wiki's navigation. (Especially since the wiki search options aren't very intuitive.) Every page should be slotted into at least one category, to enable other users to find it easily. If you are making new articles, it's very important to make sure they are put in the right category.
* Read more about categories in the [[Help:Category|Category Help page]].
