'''Wikitext''' is the main markup language used to format content on FANDOM. It can be used to add photos, tables, bold styles, links, and other many other visual changes. |
|||
It's not necessary to know wikitext in order to edit a page: you can use the [[Help:VisualEditor|new VisualEditor]], or visual mode in the [[Help:Classic editor|classic editor]], to avoid it. However, users who learn it may appreciate the additional control they have over page content. |
|||
Wikitext can be used via '[[Help:Source edit mode|source mode]]' in either editor. To access an article's wikitext: |
|||
* [[Help:Classic editor|Classic editor]]: click the 'Source' tab at the top right of the edit area. |
|||
* [[Help:VisualEditor|VisualEditor]]: click the menu button towards the right side of the toolbar, and choose 'Source Editor'. |
|||
Below is an outline of basic wikitext that you can use while [[Help:Editing|editing]]. Many of the options listed below have shortcut buttons in the editor toolbars. |
