Copy of wiki syntax that I often forget and have to look up

Basic webpage citation format

2.54 kg  680 mm   2 - 5 km → 2–5 km (1.24–3.11 mi) 2 x ->

*920 g w/ battery (PVS-17A/B)

*26 x (PVS-17A/B)

A forced line break

When linking, the real article's name always goes first USSOCOM So it renders as USSOCOM

Citing a source multiple times but with different pages, best to use shortened footnotes and place the book in "Sources" within the References section

blah blah blah.{{sfn|Elk|1972|p=5}

==References==

===Sources=== *

Text blah blah. More text blah.

==References==

Renders as Text blah blah. More text blah.
