[[Help:AboutIoTWiki|IoTWiki]] is based on MediaWiki and similar to wikipedia. The [[Help:wikitext|wikitext]] used is a subset of HTML with extensions. There is no [[Help:VisualEditor| WYSIWYG editor]]. This leads to formatting issues.

<!--T:1-->
 
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 <code><nowiki>''this''</nowiki></code>.

Please link to the specifc page using an internal link <nowiki>[[PageName]]</nowiki> or <nowiki>[[PageName#SectionName]]</nowiki> in scope.

== Paragraphs == <!--T:78-->
 
 
 
<!--T:79-->
 
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 <code>&lt;br /></code>.
 
 
 
== HTML tags == <!--T:80-->
 
 
 
<!--T:81-->
 
Some [[wikipedia:HTML|HTML]] tags are allowed in MediaWiki, for example <code>&lt;code></code>, <code>&lt;div></code>, <code><nowiki><span></nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki><font></nowiki></code>. These apply anywhere you insert them.

== Inserting symbols == <!--T:132-->
 
 
 
<!--T:133-->
 
Symbols and other special characters not available on your keyboard can be inserted in a multitude of ways. Many [http://www.howtogeek.com/210824/how-to-quickly-type-special-characters-on-any-computer-smartphone-or-tablet/ Operating Systems and browsers] allow you to insert special characters through a menu option or Operating System panel. Additionally, you can use the WikiEditor or [[VisualEditor/Special characters|VisualEditor]] to insert them into the edit screen.
 
 
 
<!--T:166-->
 
As a last resort, you can use a special sequence of characters. Those sequences are called HTML entities. For example, the following sequence (entity) '''&amp;rarr;''' when inserted will be shown as <ins>right arrow</ins> HTML symbol &rarr; and '''&amp;mdash;''' when inserted will be shown as an <ins>em dash</ins> HTML symbol &mdash;. </translate>
 
----
 
{{note|<translate><!--T:134--> Hover over any character to find out the symbol that it produces.  Some symbols not available in the current font will appear as empty squares.</translate>}}

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

IoTWiki is based on MediaWiki and similar to wikipedia. The wikitext used is a subset of HTML with extensions. There is no WYSIWYG editor. This leads to formatting issues. If you want the community to explore issues and suggest options or help with fixing formatting you can use the talk or discussion pags of this page.

Please link to the specifc page using an internal link [[PageName]] or [[PageName#SectionName]] in scope.
