'''Follow these practices for building your ==Wiki pagearticle structure==All wiki articles should follow this format:'''
* [http://www.bartleby.com/141/strunk5.html Make it brief.]===Overview===* Add [[Wiki_Editing_CheatSheet#Hyperlinks|hyperlinks]] to other pages where SmartSimple's terminology is used.* Add an [[Wiki_Editing_CheatSheet#Image_Files|image]] of Answer the subject(s) of the article.* Add a "[[Arcadia_-_Level_1_Summary_(matrix)_Settings#See_Also|See Also]]" section with related articles that may or may not have been mentioned in the text.* Put your page under one or more [[Wiki_Editing_CheatSheet#Categories|Categories]].following questions
# What is this article about? Example: The Login page allows a user to gain access to your SmartSimple System. The user will authenticate on this page, typically by entering a username and password.
# Why is this important? Example: The login page is used to: Authenticate the user, Switch languages, Direct people to a signup page, Ask the user to accept the use of cookies, enforce agreement of your systems privacy and security policies, and Reset your password.
# What will the reader learn from this article? Example: This article will show you how to setup and modify login pages within your system.
# Is there anything odd or important that should be noted? Example: Note: You will need global administrator access to setup or edit login pages. You will also need to create a separate login page for each language you want to support.
===Configuration – Essentials===
Break out all the tasks the majority of users will do and explain how to do them in the minimal steps possible. Use a numbered list for the tasks and keep them below 15 steps. If it is more than 15 steps to do something, break the task into multiple headers.
===Configuration -Advanced===Break out all other tasks not listed in the essentials section. This section is meant for tasks that are particularly difficult, not commonly used or tricky/cumbersome. ===Settings Explained===List all the settings used by this page/feature, what the setting does and if not self evident why you would use it. This should be presented in a table format. In time this may be replaced by an in system help. ===Category===Make sure every article has a category. This way it is easy to find all related pages. Ideally all articles should be in one of the categories found on the home page https://wiki.smartsimple.com/wiki/Main_Page. This way anyone entering the wiki for the first time can find all the good articles. If an article falls into more than one category that is ok. ===Other considerations===* Use US English for spelling.* Use [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/procedures-instructions/formatting-text-in-instructions Microsoft conventions] for writing instructions (When you refer to a button, check box, or other option, use bold formatting for the name) {| class="wikitable"|-||Correct||Select '''Save'''|-||Incorrect Select||"save"|} Note more help about the mediawiki can be found [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Contents mediawiki.org]

===Preformatted text===
You can have HTML or WIKI syntax appear the way you typed it by wrapping the code with an opening '''<''' and '''pre''' and '''>''' then a closing '''<''' '''/''' '''pre''' and '''>''' tag. This is used for code examples of what to type into the wiki. The pre stands for preformatted text. This will preserve the formatting of the text you entered (example tab, double spaces, new lines). Currently you cannot add code that has a closing tag < / > inside a pre as the slash will close the pre. We have tried other syntax such as nowiki and code but they all seem to exhibit the same issues after you save, edit then save again. The pre tag is not to be used for emphasis or notes.
<pre>your code goes heredouble space double spacetab tab tab</pre>
==Heading Levels==
 
Level 1 is for page name.
<pre>==level 2==
===Level 3===
====Level 4====
To change this behavior, at the top of the page, add:
<pre>__NOTOC__ Hides the table of contents (TOC).
__FORCETOC__ Forces the table of contents to appear at its normal position (before the first header).
__TOC__ Places a table of contents at the word's current position (overriding <nowiki>__NOTOC__).
</nowiki></pre>
==Hyperlinks==
===Links to Internal Pages===
To add a link Link to '''Main Page''':internal page

You should use templates if For example when a termpage is deprecated, table or image will be repeated we display the same message across multiple pages. The template can be referenced the top on each page by surrounding the adding that template name (minus the leading "Template:" string) with <nowiki>{{double brackets}}</nowiki>.
