| − | === HTML Tables ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[en:HTML|HTML]] tables can be quite useful as well. For details on how to use them and discussion about when they are appropriate, see [[MediaWiki User's Guide: Using tables]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Templates==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some text on a page may correspond in the edit box to just a reference to another page, in the form <nowiki>{{</nowiki>''name''<nowiki>}}</nowiki>, referring to the page "Template:''name''". This is called a [[template]]. For changing that text, edit that other page. Sometimes a separate edit link is provided for this purpose. A convenient way to put such a link in a template in Wikipedia is with [[en:Template:ed]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Page protection==
| |
| − | | |
| − | In a few cases the link labeled "{{MediaWiki:Editthispage}}" is replaced by the text "{{MediaWiki:Protectedpage}}" (or equivalents in the language of the project). In that case the page can not be edited.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Separating edits==
| |
| − | | |
| − | When moving or copying a piece of text within a page or from another page, and also making other edits, it is useful to separate these edits. This way the [[MediaWiki User's Guide: Diff|diff function]] can be usefully applied for checking these other edits.
