Markdown Syntax

Markdown Syntax Guide

Pages are written in Markdown. Here's a reference for the most common formatting options.

Text formatting

Headings

## Heading 2
### Heading 3
#### Heading 4

Headings automatically appear in the Table of Contents sidebar on wider screens. The TOC highlights the section you're currently reading as you scroll. Each heading also gets a ¶ anchor link you can click (or copy) to link directly to that section.

Links and images

[Link text](https://example.com)
![Alt text](/files/123/image.png)

To link to another wiki page, use the #slug syntax (see Linking Pages).

Lists

- Item one
- Item two
  - Nested item

1. First
2. Second
3. Third

Task lists

- [x] Completed task
- [ ] Pending task

Blockquotes

> This is a blockquote.
> It can span multiple lines.

Code blocks

Use triple backticks with an optional language name for syntax highlighting. Each code block has a copy button in the top corner — click it to copy the contents to your clipboard.

```python
def hello():
    print("Hello, world!")
```

Tables

| Column A | Column B |
|----------|----------|
| Cell 1   | Cell 2   |
| Cell 3   | Cell 4   |

Horizontal rules

Uploading files

You can upload files (images, PDFs, documents, etc.) directly into the editor. There are three ways to upload:

• Toolbar button — Click the upload icon in the editor toolbar to open a file picker
• Paste — Paste an image from your clipboard directly into the editor
• Drag and drop — Drag a file from your computer onto the editor

The file is uploaded and the appropriate Markdown syntax is inserted automatically — ![alt](url) for images and [filename](url) for other files.

File size limit: The maximum upload size is 1 GB per file.

Blocked file types: Executable files (.exe, .sh, .bat, .js, .dll, and similar) cannot be uploaded for security reasons.

Privacy: Uploaded files are served through signed URLs. Files attached to a private page are only accessible to users who have permission to view that page.

The editor

The Markdown editor has a toolbar with buttons for common formatting (bold, italic, headings, lists, quotes, links, images, tables, and file upload). Below the toolbar are Write and Preview tabs — click Preview to see the rendered page without saving.

A status bar at the bottom of the editor shows the current line and word count.

If you navigate away from the page with unsaved changes, the browser will warn you before leaving.
