User:Delimiter/Mediawiki Tips

Things I must remember how to do in Mediawiki.

Upload and use images

See examples here and here

Including a page inside another

This can be done with a template by placing the {{Templatename}} tag on the page source.

A non-template can also be included using {{:Pagename}}

See Transclusion

Tables

A nicely formatted table can be found on the LinuxBSDPackageManagementTips

The script is in the wiki/maintenance folder. Here is how I run it
