From CC Wiki
- This text covers only the very basics of editing, if you want to learn more, check out This Wikipedia page.
- links are made with double brackets [[Casual Collective]] turns into Casual Collective. You can link to the same page with a different title, by separating the article name from the new title with a vertical dash. Example: [[Casual Collective|CC]] codes for CC. Notice that the phrase 'CC' links to the Casual Collective page.
- Headers are made using equals signs. =huge header= (never use, since it is as big as the page name), ==normal header== (this is to separate the topics of the page content that follows the introduction), ===smaller header=== (further content that's a subtopic of the normal header's topic), etc. etc.
- Use single apostrophes to make things italic or bold (this was written as ''italic'' or '''bold''' ).
- Unordered lists are made, simply by putting * in front of the line. Ordered lists are made using #'s. You can then indent as much as you like by stacking them.

- Categorization is a way to make a 'tree' of articles. It is quite useful if things become really big, since it keeps things organized. You can categorize something by adding [[category:(categoryname)]] to the end of the article. However categorizing in the right way is pretty hard, so this is not too important for now.
