	What we have shown on this page are the mere basics for navigating the wiki and creating pages. There are much more possibility’s to creating pages than what you have seen here. A good source for extra functionality is simply copying pieces of code from other pages. For example, say you want a link that looks just like the link you saw on another page, well then, just go to that page, click edit, find where the link should be, copy the piece of code used and try it out on the page where you want to use it. You can even try to play around with these pieces of code or tags to see what you can do with them and make it look even better!<br>		What we have shown on this page are the mere basics for navigating the wiki and creating pages.

	Because this wiki uses the same software as the original wikipedia, [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Contents their help page] is also a good source for help. Pages that we think might be interesting on the wikipedia-help are the pages on [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Links how to place links on your pages], [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting how to format your text] and [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Tables how to create tables].<br />		Because this wiki uses the same software as the original wikipedia, [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Contents their help page] is also a good source for help.
