Types of Markup This is a practice page how to markup text while creating an article. To see complete instructions with examples you must view the edit page.

Format
A "level 2" heading is one with a pair of equal signs on each side. It's the highest level used in articles. If you enter a Level 1 heading, it will work, but you'd be wrong to do so.

Level 2 and level 3 headings are very common in articles. Level 4 is less common, levels 5 and 6 aren't used. Level 3 and 4 heading are sometimes called "subsection headings".

To bold use three apostrophes -- BOLD

To italicize use two apostrophes -- ITALICS

Markup
Two curly brackets around the template name will activate a process -- INTERESTING THIS GAVE ME A TABLE!

Two block brackets around the article name will give you an internal link (wikilink) -- article name or other name

Two block brackets around a URL will give you an external link -- http:www.osha.gov or OSHA home page

What I have learned so far
Always add an edit summary before you view your first change. Saving a page without one requires you to Save twice. Easy way to lose edits.

Always a wise move to save your article to a text file on your hard drive.
