Tips

• If you want to create an external link: [https://Cleanmemes.com A site for clean memes]. It will look like this at the end: A site for clean memes

• If you are writing and want to create a link to a similar article: [[Elephants]]. It will look like this: Elephants

• To create Italic text, simply put two ' (not ") on each side of the term you want in italic: ''The Hunger Games''. It will look like this: The Hunger Games

• To create an italic hyperlink, put the ' outside the whole term, including the brackets: ''[[The Hunger Games]]''. It will look like this: The Hunger Games

• If you want to create a link to an article, but it doesn't match with the proper grammar in the sentence: [[List of Star Wars films|''Star Wars'' movies]]. The first term in front of the | is the article you want to redirect to, and the second term behind the | is what you want to look at. It will appear like this: Star Wars movies

• If you want to create a bullet point for a list: *. Then, put the information behind the asterisk: *Elephants are endangered It will look like this:
• Elephants are endangered
