Further Rules

To make a bullet list like this one, begin a line with an asterisk (*)
- Put multiple asterisks in front of sub-list items
To make a numbered list, begin a line with a number-sign (#); put multiple number-signs in front of sub-list items
To make a horizontal rule, type four dashes on a line alone
To make a big header, type two equal signs at the beginning of a line in front of the header text, like ==Big Header . To make smaller headers, type three to six equal signs at the beginning of a line in front of the header text, like ===Smaller Header or ====Still Smaller Header
To make a table, put pipe symbols between table elements on each row; optionally use "|=" to make a table header line
To make a blockquote, prefix a paragraph with a ":"
To forward hits to a new page, put #REDIRECT [[New Page Name]] on the first line of the old page

To insert an image, write its URL, as in http://zhurnaly.com/images/zh.gif =
To handle image labels and links, as per the Oddmuse Image Extension use pipes to separate image URL, label, and link URL, as in [[image:http://zhurnaly.com/images/Birds_Kennedy_Center_Terrace_Sunset.jpg_t.jpg|Birdy Sunset|http://zhurnaly.com/images/Birds_Kennedy_Center_Terrace_Sunset.jpg]] which results in the small thumbnail-image with label "Birdy Sunset" as a clickable link to the corresponding big image:

Administrators can upload images or other materials to ZhurnalWiki pages via a "Replace this page with file" link during page editing; image files can then be displayed via something like [[image:Image_Page_Name_Here]]
