Basic Text Formatting

Style Markup
Bold '''Bold'''
Italic ''Italic''
Indentation 
To simply indent some text, prefix it with a colon (:). The more colons, the more indent.
Indent (: Indent)
More Indent (:: More Indent)
Lots o' indent (:::: Lots o' indent)
Text in a box 
To get a box drawn around some text, simply indent it off the left margin.
Like this.  One or more spaces at the beginning of a block of text will be wrapped in one of these boxes.  
More than one space or tabs does not effect the formatting (other than to indent the first line further).
In addition to being placed in a box, the text is also literally formatted, that is it's displayed exactly as typed. As you can see, this is a long line which is not broken at the right margin.
To get line breaks, you'll need to add a hard break marker: <br>

Lists

Lists are simple. For bulletted lists, use asterisks (on the left margin) for the level of indentation you want. For example:

* Item 1
* Item 2
** Item 2.1
*** Item 2.1.1
** Item 2.2
*** Item 2.2.2
** Item 2.3
* Item 3

Gives this list:

Numbered Lists

For numbered lists, change the asterisk to a pound sign:

# Item 1
# Item 2
## Item 2.1
### Item 2.1.1
## Item 2.2
### Item 2.2.2
## Item 2.3
# Item 3
  1. Item 1
  2. Item 2
    1. Item 2.1
      1. Item 2.1.1
    2. Item 2.2
      1. Item 2.2.2
    3. Item 2.3
  3. Item 3

Description Lists

Description Lists 
A description list is a list if items which are aligned (and bolded) on the left side. A Paragraph or two is associated with the item. This is an example of a description list.
; This is an item : And this is the description block.
It may contain multiple paragraphs but you must use the <br> tag to force the line breaks.
This is an item

A note on lists:  Although lists are pretty simple to make, they're also very limited.  If
you need fancy lists, you'll have to resort to hand coding the HTML tags.

Sections

Sections are labeled with numbered headings (like that immediately above).

== Section ==
=== SubSection ===
==== SubSubSection ====

If an article contains more than three sections, a table of contents is automatically generated and placed at the top of the page. You may force a table of contents to appear by using the magic symbol __TOC__. Like this:


Using __NOTOC__ anywhere in the article will disable the automatic table of contents generation. Users may enable/disable the automatic table of contents in their Preferences.
