For more complex URLs, full html formatting is required. Just add <nowiki>"<span class="plainlinks">"</nowiki> directly in front of your link, and <nowiki>"</span>"</nowiki> directly after for the same effect as above.
 
 
==Images==
To insert an image, just add the following code, that you can see is very similar to other wiki links: <nowiki>[[Image:filename.jpg]]</nowiki>. Make sure you don't forget to write the file extension. The valid image files for {{WikiTitle}} are:
* .gif
* .jpg
* .png
Images will automatically be justificated to the left side on a page, but it's easy to change this with variables, to make boxes around images and to change their size. Read more about images on the [[Help:Image|Image 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]].
Please also note that you need special formatting to [[Help:Markup#Linking to Categories|link to categories]].
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]].
