=Subheading guide= Surrounding text with varying quantities of equals signs makes then in to subheadings. That one just up there is made with one equals sign on either side.

Two is a good size for a subheading
Make sure it's in sentence case!

Three lets you make a subberheading
That word is not official, but it should be

Four is super sub
Not used often, but enough that it exists

This is the subbest heading you can make (five)
Any more than this and it renders like the subbest heading but with equals signs on the edges

Basic formatting
You can make text italic, bold or both, by placing 2, 3, or 5 apostrophe signs around your text like this:.

Colours
To make stuff a different colour, use a  tag, and style it like this:  , where HEXCODE is the RRGGBB values of the colour you want to display, written in hexadecimal. (commonly called a hex code)

Code
To show code you can use the  tag to surround text, and it will be rendered in a monospace font. The code will likely include wiki characters though, so you can use the  tag inside your   tags, to escape out HTML and the like. (Note: you must use the  tags inside the   tags, or the   tags will get nowiki'd.)

Text Size
To make big text, use the  tag!

To make small text, use the  tag!

Nothing happens when you use both.

More advanced CSS
You can easily apply more advanced styling to wikitext, by putting it inside a  tag, and replacing the caps-lock text with actual CSS. You almost definitely shouldn't do this on a real article, but it can work on user pages, or if you're making a template.
