== Extreme basics ==
 
 
=== External links ===
 
Add external by simply typing in the URL, like this: http://www.flickr.com. If you want to replace an ugly URL with pretty text, simply insert a space after the URL, followed by the text you wish to display. Enclose the URL and replacement text in a set of single brackets, like this: <nowiki> [http://www.flickr.com Flickr]</nowiki>. The resulting link will now look like this to the user: [http://www.flickr.com Flickr].
 
 
=== Internal links ===
 
Link to another page of the wiki by enclosing that page name in double brackets. For example, inputting <nowiki>[[Documentation]]</nowiki> will produce a link to the Documentation page for the cc wiki, and will look like this: [[Documentation]].
 
 
=== Italic text ===
 
Italicize text by enclosing the desired text in 2 single quotation marks. For example, <nowiki>''Welcome to this rad wiki''</nowiki>  produces ''Welcome to this rad wiki''.
 
 
=== Bold text ===
 
Bold text by enclosing the desired test in 3 single quotation marks. For example, <nowiki>'''Welcome to this rad wiki'''</nowiki> produces '''Welcome to this rad wiki'''.
 
 
=== Bullets ===
 
Add bullet points by entering an asterisk (*) at the beginning of a line of text. Create a child of a bullet by adding another asterisk to the corresponding line (**). Examples:
 
 
* Bullet point number one
 
** sub bullet point
