Wikis

Page history

Wikis are a lot easier to use than they sound

How pages work

Every wiki starts with a Home page. Usually this would look like a quick intro or a set of links to the other important pages, but the format is freeform. Traditionally, wikis are made so that every page is reachable from the Home page, but that isn't a hard requirement.

Pages can be grouped into folders by adding the folder name as part of the title. For instance, creating this page looks like

wiki-page-creation

which creates a page named "Wikis" in a folder named "Features"

wiki-folder-example

Formatting

GitLab wikis use a special version of markdown.

Bold text looks like **this**

Italics look like either *this* or _this_

You can link from one page to another with [Link Title](page-slug), where the "page-slug" is the "codified" version of the name. Linking to this page looks like [Linking to this page](features/wikis).

A header like the one above is as simple as ## Formatting, where the number of #'s determines the header's weight.

To add an image, just click the attach-a-file button on the bottom right, and GitLab will automatically add ![attach-a-file](/uploads/c25bd9c4e64900997f01d73675e7d893/attach-a-file.png) to show it inline.
