* Avoid making a dozen small edits to a page, instead making one large edit. This makes the history of the page a lot easier to read and avoids cluttering the Recent changes page. | * Avoid making a dozen small edits to a page, instead making one large edit.

* When making comments on a talk page, use one more colon before each line in your comment than was used in the comment you reply to. Put exactly one empty line between comments by different users but do not use blank lines inside of a comment. If your comment has no indents, use <code><nowiki><br></nowiki></code> after each line. | * When making comments on a talk page, use one more colon before each line in your comment than was used in the comment you reply to.

Really? You seem to have a good eye - Meh, only one way to figure it out - open a page and have a look! Copy/paste some code of an article that has an interesting (or basic) format style, a "look" you want to master, and play with it on your User page, just using "preview". The main tricks are how many "equals signs" ( <nowiki>= =</nowiki> ) surround the subsection name ''(1-4, with 1 being the largest, 4 being the smallest, and 2 the default for a subsection)'', the use of " <nowiki>__TOC__</nowiki> " to force a Table Of Contents where you want it ''(note there are TWO _'s on each side of that!)'', and an advanced trick, the use of templates, anything in double brackets, " <nowiki>{{ blah blah }}</nowiki> ". Templates call up a pre-determined "style" from another page, and often let you fill in the blank. The "spoiler warning", "mod warning", "D for Dwarf" and "{{k|k}}eyboard key" are all templates. Other than that, just hit the editing buttons at the top of the screen, and you've got 90% of everything you could want!--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 11:52, 7 March 2010 (UTC) | Really?
