How to make a reference

Example Code:

Text you want to reference about. <ref>reference data here will appear as a footnote</ref>. 
It's in the middle of some super great writing. <ref name="Hammel, Jack">if you name a reference, you can re-use it easily</ref>
You worked really hard on making sure everything was properly cited.<ref>this is another reference</ref>
When the article was done you were proud.<ref name="Hammel, Jack />

Don't forget to output the reference table like this:
<references />

Produces:

Text you want to reference about. [1] It's in the middle of some super great writing. [2] You worked really hard on making sure everything was properly cited.[3] When the article was done you were proud.[2]

Don't forget to output the reference table like this:

  1. reference data here will appear as a footnote
  2. 2.0 2.1 if you name a reference, you can re-use it easily
  3. this is another reference


How to put photos from Gallery2 into Wiki pages

Simple - press the little "G" button when editing. It will make tags that look like this (I've added extra space around "Foto" so it doesn't get parsed - you should not put this extra space if you want a photo to appear):

[[ Foto :###]]

(The person who wrote the plugin is Dutch - Foto is Photo in Dutch)

You can specify the size like this - 320 in this example:

[[ Foto :1234|320]]

How to do Tasks

Example Code:

<tasks>
[ ] A Simple Task (Name Of User Assigned to Task)
[1] A Priority 1 Task
[2] A Priority 2 Task (Name Of User Assigned to Task)
[3] A Priority 3 Task
[x] A Completed Task
</tasks>

You can make as many tasks as you like. Each task must be on its own line. Do not put anything else on the same line as a task. You do not need to assign the task to a user. The user does not have to be a vailid wiki username.

Produces:

<tasks> [ ] A Simple Task (Name Of User Assigned to Task) [1] A Priority 1 Task [2] A Priority 2 Task (Name Of User Assigned to Task) [3] A Priority 3 Task [x] A Completed Task </tasks>

How to do Syntax Highlighting
