1. '''What's wiki markup?''' When editing articles on Gynopedia, you'll sometimes need to use wiki markup. You can see an example of wiki markup in the image we've provided. If you're familiar with HTML, you can think of wiki markup as a very basic form of HTML. If you're not familiar with HTML, that's okay! You'll find that wiki markup is very straightforward. Basically, it's how we format wiki pages with things like headers, image insertions, and captions.

2. '''Distinguishing Between Cities:''' To distinguish between two cities with the same name (for example, Los Angeles, USA and Los Angeles, Chile), please add this markup at the top of the page when in 'Edit' view (see below). You'll want to specify the country (e.g. United States), state or region (California) and city (Los Angeles).
