Namespaces
These are used to help keep our various martial endeavours separate within the wiki, so you can refer to things logically. We use:
- Armoured Combat (this also hosts the Marshal Handbook currently)
- Rapier (this might end up hosting youth rapier as well?)
- Siege
- Archery (for target archery and thrown weapons)
- Equestrian
- Youth (Still to be created)
If you want to refer to the Change Log for a particular martial rule set, it'll be called Change Log within the relevant namespace, and we can have an Introduction page for each rule set without having to come up with unique titles for the Rapier Introduction page and the Archery one.
Page layout
Characters you can't use
- Don't use " for inches or ' for feet - it mucks up actual "quotes" within the pdf generation, and looks funny. Use inches and feet where required. Be careful when you copy and paste text from another source that it's not using smart quotes - it pays to retype them in the editing window, just to make sure.
Headings
Using ==symbols surrounding== the words you want as a heading will give you a heading like the one above. It helps break up the text into readable chunks, and makes paragraph tags that can help you link to the right section of a page, and not just the page itself.
Subheadings
This subheading uses === to surround the heading to create a sub heading These also make tags you can use, and they will show up in tables of contents for each page that has more than 3 headings
One more level of subheading
They stop looking different once to get to ==== These also make tags you can use, and they will show up in tables of contents for each page that has more than 3 headings
Lists
Numbered lists
Most of our rules are numbered lists. It helps people find things when you can tell them which number rule to look for. The pound/hash # at the start of a line gives you an item in a numbered list. Using them elsewhere in text will give you a # symbol.
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Using it twice ## gives you a numbered item in the next level of list
- Like this
- and this
- These lists can get deeper
- and deeper
- and deeper, but if you're going this deep you should probably be thinking about some sub headings.
- and deeper
- These lists can get deeper
Bullet-pointed lists
Using a * at the start of the line makes a bullet point
- like this
Using it twice doesn't increase the indent You can use bullet points within a numbered list too by typing #* at the start of the line. The number of ##s will need to match the depth of list you are up to.
- Item one
- Item two
- bullet point item under Item 2
