This article is a stub. You can help Lunarpedia by expanding it or sorting it into the correct stub subcategory.


Markup

Bold and italic markup is done with apostrophes. Two for italic and three for bold:

''This is italic.''
'''This is bold.'''
'''''This is bold and italic.'''''

Links

Suppose you need a link to another article (which may or may not exist already) within Lunarpedia. You surround the link in double brackets, like this:

[[List of Lists]]
List of Lists.

You can also make the displayed name and the place in goes to differently with a pipe separating the two:


[[List of Lists|List of needed lists of needed articles]]
List of needed lists of needed articles.


For off-wiki links, you can just type in the URL with the http component like this:

http://moonsociety.org
http://moonsociety.org

You can also use a different displayed name than the link by using single brackets with a space between the URL/URI and the displayed name.

[http://moonsociety.org The Moon Society]
The Moon Society


Tags

For various reasons, it may be appropriate to tag an article as needing cleanup, or that it's a stub, or some other purpose. A list of tags can be found here. Tags and other templates are surrounded by double braces. For example, Template:Stub is used as {{Stub}}.
