You can format your text by using wiki markup. This consists of normal characters like asterisks, apostrophes or equal signs which have a special function in the wiki, sometimes depending on their position. For example, to format a word in italic, you include it in two pairs of apostrophes like ''this''.

Paragraphs

MediaWiki ignores single line breaks. To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line. You can force a line break within a paragraph with the HTML tag <br />.

HTML tags

Some HTML tags are allowed in MediaWiki, for example <code>, <div>, and <span>. These apply anywhere you insert them.

Inserting symbols

Symbols and other special characters not available on your keyboard can be inserted in a multitude of ways. Many Operating Systems and browsers allow you to insert special characters through a menu option or Operating System panel. Additionally, you can use the WikiEditor to insert them into the edit screen.

As a last resort, you can use a special sequence of characters. Those sequences are called HTML entities. For example, the following sequence (entity) → when inserted will be shown as right arrow HTML symbol → and — when inserted will be shown as an em dash HTML symbol —.

See the list of all HTML entities on the Wikipedia article List of HTML entities. Additionally, MediaWiki supports two non-standard entity reference sequences: &רלמ; and &رلم; which are both considered equivalent to &rlm; which is a right-to-left mark. (Used when combining right to left languages with left to right languages in the same page.)

Nowiki for HTML

<nowiki /> can prohibit (HTML) tags:

<<nowiki />pre> → <pre>

But not & symbol escapes:

&<nowiki />amp; → &

To print & symbol escapes as text, use "&" to replace the "&" character (eg. type "&nbsp;", which results in " ").

<languages/> Template:TNT

<> For MediaWiki's database table structure, see <tvar|1>Template:Ll</></>

<>

Tables may be created in wiki pages.</> <>

As a general rule, it is best to avoid using a table unless you need one.</> <>

Table markup often complicates page editing.</>^[1]

<>

Wiki table markup summary

</>

{\|	<> table start, required</>
\|+	<> table caption, optional; only between table start and table row</>
\|-	<> table row, optional on first row—wiki engine assumes the first row</>
!	<> table header cell, optional.</> <> Consecutive table header cells may be added on same line separated by double marks (`!!`) or start on new lines, each with its own single mark (`!`).</>
\|	<> table data cell, optional.</> <> Consecutive table data cells may be added on same line separated by double marks (`\|\|`) or start on new lines, each with its own single mark (`\|`).</>
\|}	<>9 table end, required</>

<>

The above marks must start on a new line except the double || and !! for optionally adding consecutive cells to a line. However, blank spaces at the beginning of a line are ignored.</>
<> HTML attributes.</> <> Each mark, except table end, optionally accepts one or more HTML attributes.</> <> Attributes must be on the same line as the mark.</> <> Separate attributes from each other with a single space.</>

<>

- Cells and caption (| or ||, ! or !!, and |+) hold content.</> <> So separate any attributes from content with a single pipe (|).</> <> Cell content may follow on same line or on following lines.</>

<>

- Table and row marks ({| and |-) do not directly hold content.</> <> Do not add pipe (|) after their optional attributes.</> <> If you erroneously add a pipe after attributes for the table mark or row mark the parser will delete it and your final attribute if it was touching the erroneous pipe!</>

<>

Content may (a) follow its cell mark on the same line after any optional HTML attributes or (b) on lines below the cell mark.</> <> Content that uses wiki markup that itself needs to start on a new line, such as lists, headings, or nested tables, must be on its own new line.</>

<>

- Pipe character as content.</> <>

To insert a pipe (|) character into a table, use the <nowiki>|</nowiki> escaping markup.

Basics

The following table lacks borders and good spacing but shows the simplest wiki markup table structure. </>

HTML attributes

You can add HTML attributes to tables.</> <>

For the authoritative source on these, see [<tvar|url>https://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/tables.html</> the W3C's HTML Specification page on tables].

Attributes on tables

Placing attributes after the table start tag ({|) applies attributes to the entire table.</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center; color: green;"
|<> Orange</>
|<> Apple</>
|12,333.00
|-
|<> Bread</>
|<> Pie</>
|500.00
|-
|<> Butter</>
|<> Ice cream</>
|1.00
|}

<> Orange</>	<> Apple</>	12,333.00
<> Bread</>	<> Pie</>	500.00
<> Butter</>	<> Ice cream</>	1.00

<>

Attributes on cells

You can put attributes on individual cells.</> <>

For example, numbers may look better aligned right.</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable"
| <> Orange</>
| <> Apple</>
| style="text-align:right;" | 12,333.00
|-
| <> Bread</>
| <> Pie</>
| style="text-align:right;" | 500.00
|-
| <> Butter</>
| <> Ice cream</>
| style="text-align:right;" | 1.00
|}

<> Orange</>	<> Apple</>	12,333.00
<> Bread</>	<> Pie</>	500.00
<> Butter</>	<> Ice cream</>	1.00

<>

You can also use cell attributes when you are listing multiple cells on a single line.</> <>

Note that the cells are separated by ||, and within each cell the attribute(s) and value are separated by |.</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable"
| <> Orange</> || <> Apple</>     || style="text-align:right;" | 12,333.00
|-
| <> Bread</> || <> Pie</>       || style="text-align:right;" | 500.00
|-
| <> Butter</> || <> Ice cream</> || style="text-align:right;" | 1.00
|}

<> Orange</>	<> Apple</>	12,333.00
<> Bread</>	<> Pie</>	500.00
<> Butter</>	<> Ice cream</>	1.00

<>

Attributes on rows

You can put attributes on individual rows, too. </>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable"
| <> Orange</>
| <> Apple</>
| style="text-align:right;"| 12,333.00
|-
| <> Bread</>
| <> Pie</>
| style="text-align:right;"| 500.00
|- style="font-style: italic; color: green;"
| <> Butter</>
| <> Ice cream</>
| style="text-align:right;"| 1.00

Simple one-pixel table border

An example of a one-pixel table border: </>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| border="1" style="border-collapse:collapse"
| <> Orange</>
| <> Apple</>
|-
| <> Bread</>
| <> Pie</>
|}

<> Orange</>	<> Apple</>
<> Bread</>	<> Pie</>

<>

Border width

If "border-width:" has only one number, it is for all four border sides: </>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{|style="border-style: solid; border-width: 20px"
|
<> Hello</>
|}

<> Hello</>

<>

If "border-width:" has more than one number, the four numbers are for top, right, bottom, left (REMEMBER this order):</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{|style="border-style: solid; border-width: 10px 20px 100px 0"
|
<> Hello</>
|}

<> Hello</>

<>

When there are fewer than 4 values, the value for left takes its default from the value for right, the value for bottom takes its default from the value for top, and the value for right takes its default from the value for top.</>

<>

Another method to define the widths of the four sides of a cell is to use "border-left", "border-right", "border-top" and "border-bottom":</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{|style="border-left:solid 10px black;border-right:solid 20px black;border-top:solid 30px black;border-bottom:solid 40px black;" align="center" 
|
<> Hello</>
|}

<> Hello</>

Template:Note

<>

With HTML attributes and CSS styles

CSS style attributes can be added with or without other HTML attributes.</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable" style="color:green; background-color:#ffffcc;" cellpadding="10"
|<> Orange</>
|<> Apple</>
|-
|<> Bread</>
|<> Pie</>
|-
|<> Butter</>
|<> Ice cream</> 
|}

<> Orange</>	<> Apple</>
<> Bread</>	<> Pie</>
<> Butter</>	<> Ice cream</>

<>

Attributes

Attributes can be added to the caption and headers as follows. </>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable"
|+ style="caption-side:bottom; color:#e76700;"|<> ''Food complements''</>
|-
|<> Orange</>
|<> Apple</>
|-
|<> Bread</>
|<> Pie</>
|-
|<> Butter</>
|<> Ice cream</> 
|}

<> *Food complements*</>
<> Orange</>	<> Apple</>
<> Bread</>	<> Pie</>
<> Butter</>	<> Ice cream</>

<>

Column width

Column width can be added as follows.

You type: </>

{| style="color: black; background-color: #ffffcc; width: 85%;"
| colspan="2" | <> This column width is 85% of the screen width (and has a background color)</>
|-
| style="width: 30%; background-color: white;"|
<> '''This column is 30% counted from 85% of the screen width'''</>
| style="width: 70%; background-color: orange;"|
<> '''This column is 70% counted from 85% of the screen width (and has a background color)'''</>
|}

<>

You get:</>

<> This column width is 85% of the screen width (and has a background color)</>
<> This column is 30% counted from 85% of the screen width</>	<> This column is 70% counted from 85% of the screen width (and has a background color)</>

<>

Accessibility of table header cells

Table header cells do not explicitly specify which table data cells they apply to (those on their right on the same row, or those below them on the same column).</> <>

When the table is rendered in a visual 2D environment, this is usually easy to infer.

However when tables are rendered on non-visual media, you can help the browser to determine which table header cell applies to the description of any selected cell (in order to repeat its content in some accessibility helper) using a scope="row" or scope="col" attribute on table header cells.</> <>

In most cases with simple tables, you'll use scope="col" on all header cells of the first row, and scope="row" on the first cell of the following rows: </>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! scope="col"| <> Item</>
! scope="col"| <> Quantity</>
! scope="col"| <> Price</>
|-
! scope="row"| <> Bread</>
| 0.3 kg
| $0.65
|-
! scope="row"| <> Butter</>
| 0.125 kg
| $1.25
|-
! scope="row" colspan="2"| <> Total</>
| $1.90
|}

<> Item</>	<> Quantity</>	<> Price</>
<> Bread</>	0.3 kg	$0.65
<> Butter</>	0.125 kg	$1.25
<> Total</>		$1.90

<>

Alignment

Table alignment

Table alignment is achieved by using CSS.</> <>

The table alignment is controlled by margins.</> <>

A fixed margin on one side will make the table to be aligned to that side, if on the opposite side the margin is defined as auto.</> <>

To have a table center aligned, you should set both margins to auto</>

<>

For example, a right-aligned table:</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: 0px;"
| <> Orange</>
| <> Apple</>
|-
| <> Bread</>
| <> Pie</>
|-
| <> Butter</>
| <> Ice cream</> 
|}

<> Orange</>	<> Apple</>
<> Bread</>	<> Pie</>
<> Butter</>	<> Ice cream</>

<>

And a center-aligned table:</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable" style="margin: auto;"
| <> Orange</>
| <> Apple</>
|-
| <> Bread</>
| <> Pie</>
|-
| <> Butter</>
| <> Ice cream</> 
|}

<> Orange</>	<> Apple</>
<> Bread</>	<> Pie</>
<> Butter</>	<> Ice cream</>

<>

Table floating around text

If you align a table to the right or the left side of the page, the text that comes after the table starts at the end of it, leaving an empty space around the table.</> <>

You can make the text to be wrapped around the table by making the table to float around the text instead of just aligning it.</> <>

This can be achieved using the float CSS attribute, which can specify where the table floats to the right side or to the left.</> <>

When using float, margins doesn't control table alignment and can be used to specify the margin between the table and the surrounding text.</>

<> You type</>

<> You get</>

{| class="wikitable" style="float:right; margin-left: 10px;"
| <> Orange</>
| <> Apple</>
|-
| <> Bread</>
| <> Pie</>
|-
| <> Butter</>
| <> Ice cream</> 
|}

Caveats

Negative numbers

If you start a cell on a new line with a negative number with a minus sign (or a parameter that evaluates to a negative number), your table can get broken, because the characters |- will be parsed as the wiki markup for table row, not table cell.</> <>

To avoid this, insert a space before the value (| -6) or use in-line cell markup (|| -6).

CSS vs attributes

Table borders specified through CSS rather than the border attribute will render incorrectly in a small subset of text browsers.

Common attributes for columns, column groups and row groups

The MediaWiki syntax for tables currently offers no support for specifying common attributes for columns (with the HTML element <tvar|col><col /></>), column groups (HTML element <tvar|colgroup><colgroup></colgroup></>) and row groups (HTML elements <tvar|thead><thead></thead></>, <tvar|tbody><tbody></tbody></> and <tvar|tfoot><tfoot></tfoot></>).</> <>

Those standard HTML elements are not accepted even in their HTML or XHTML syntax.</>

<>

All the rows and cells (header or data) of the table are rendered within a single implicit row group (HTML element <tbody></tbody>) without any attributes or styles.

+When the table is rendered in a visual 2D environment, this is usually easy to infer.
+However when tables are rendered on non-visual media, you can help the browser to determine which table header cell applies to the description of any selected cell (in order to repeat its content in some accessibility helper) using a scope="row" or scope="col" attribute on table header cells.</>
+<>
+In most cases with simple tables, you'll use scope="col" on all header cells of the first row, and scope="row" on the first cell of the following rows:
+</>
+{| style="width:100%"
+! style="width: 50%;"|<> You type</>
+! style="width: 50%;"|<> You get</>
+|-
+| style="padding: 5px;"|
+<pre>
+{| class="wikitable"
+|-
+! scope="col"| <> Item</>
+! scope="col"| <> Quantity</>
+! scope="col"| <> Price</>
+|-
+! scope="row"| <> Bread</>
+| 0.3 kg
+| $0.65
+|-
+! scope="row"| <> Butter</>
+| 0.125 kg
+| $1.25
+|-
+! scope="row" colspan="2"| <> Total</>
+| $1.90
+|}
+</pre>
+| style="padding: 5px;"|
+{| class="wikitable"
+|-
+! scope="col"| <> Item</>
+! scope="col"| <> Quantity</>
+! scope="col"| <> Price</>

+== Alignment ==
+=== Table alignment ===
+Table alignment is achieved by using CSS.</>
+<>
+The table alignment is controlled by margins.</>
+<>
+A fixed margin on one side will make the table to be aligned to that side, if on the opposite side the margin is defined as ''auto''.</>
+<>
+To have a table center aligned, you should set both margins to ''auto''</>
+<>
+For example, a right-aligned table:</>
+{| style="width:100%"
+! style="width: 50%;"|<> You type</>
+! style="width: 50%;"|<> You get</>
+|-
+| style="padding: 5px;"|
+<pre>
+{| class="wikitable" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: 0px;"
+| <> Orange</>
+| <> Apple</>
+|-
+| <> Bread</>
+| <> Pie</>
+|-
+| <> Butter</>
+| <> Ice cream</>
+|}
+</pre>
+| style="padding: 5px;"|
+{| class="wikitable" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: 0px;"
+| <> Orange</>
+| <> Apple</>
+|-
+| <> Bread</>
+| <> Pie</>
+|-
+| <> Butter</>
+| <> Ice cream</>
+|}
+|}
+<>
+And a center-aligned table:</>
+{| style="width:100%"
+! style="width: 50%;"|<> You type</>
+! style="width: 50%;"|<> You get</>
+|-
+| style="padding: 5px;"|
+<pre>
+{| class="wikitable" style="margin: auto;"
+| <> Orange</>
+| <> Apple</>
+|-
+| <> Bread</>
+| <> Pie</>
+|-
+| <> Butter</>
+| <> Ice cream</>
+|}
+</pre>
+| style="padding: 5px;"|
+{| class="wikitable" style="margin: auto;"
+| <> Orange</>
+| <> Apple</>
+|-
+| <> Bread</>
+| <> Pie</>
+|-
+| <> Butter</>
+| <> Ice cream</>
+|}
+|}
+<>
+=== Table floating around text ===
+If you align a table to the right or the left side of the page, the text that comes after the table starts at the end of it, leaving an empty space around the table.</>
+<>
+You can make the text to be wrapped around the table by making the table to ''float'' around the text instead of just aligning it.</>
+<>
+This can be achieved using the <code>float</code> CSS attribute, which can specify where the table floats to the right side or to the left.</>
+<>
+When using ''float'', margins doesn't control table alignment and can be used to specify the margin between the table and the surrounding text.</>
+{| style="width:100%"
+! style="width: 50%;"|<> You type</>
+! style="width: 50%;"|<> You get</>
+|-
+| style="padding: 5px;"|
+<pre>
+{| class="wikitable" style="float:right; margin-left: 10px;"
+| <> Orange</>
+| <> Apple</>
+|-
+| <> Bread</>
+| <> Pie</>

+==Caveats==
+===Negative numbers===
+If you start a cell on a new line with a negative number with a minus sign (or a parameter that evaluates to a negative number), your table can get broken, because the characters <code>|-</code> will be parsed as the wiki markup for table row, not table cell.</>
+<>
+To avoid this, insert a space before the value (<code>| -6</code>) or use in-line cell markup (<code>|| -6</code>).
+===CSS vs attributes===
+Table borders specified through CSS rather than the border attribute will render incorrectly in a small subset of text browsers.
+===Common attributes for columns, column groups and row groups===
+The MediaWiki syntax for tables currently offers no support for specifying common attributes for columns (with the HTML element <tvar|col><code><nowiki><col /></nowiki></code></>), column groups (HTML element <tvar|colgroup><code><nowiki><colgroup></colgroup></nowiki></code></>) and row groups (HTML elements <tvar|thead><code><nowiki><thead></thead></nowiki></code></>, <tvar|tbody><code><nowiki><tbody></tbody></nowiki></code></> and <tvar|tfoot><code><nowiki><tfoot></tfoot></nowiki></code></>).</>
+<>
+Those standard HTML elements are not accepted even in their HTML or XHTML syntax.</>
+<>
+All the rows and cells (header or data) of the table are rendered within a single implicit row group (HTML element <code><nowiki><tbody></tbody></nowiki></code>) without any attributes or styles.
