The Basics
These are the basic styles of MediaWiki. Know these to write and link basic articles in these Lexicon games.
Headings
Use Equals signs (=) to make headers. Each = you use makes your heading a less important one. Use one = for a very important top level heading and two or three for more minor headings.
