1. '''What's wiki markup?''' When editing articles on Gynopedia, you'll sometimes need to use use wiki markup (see example at right). It's kinda like HTML... but way easier. Basically, it's a way to provide everything that's not pure text -- formatting, links, image specifications -- on the page. So, for example, if you see quotation marks or multiple equal signs, that's wiki markup. Make sure to copy and paste the markup exactly as you see it in the examples we provide below. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. For reference, check out the example (see right) of a new Melbourne page with wiki markup.
