Headings / Subheadings

• The tier 1 heading (largest) uses 1 =, is underlined, and is the same size/style as the page title.
  • Example: = text here =
  • note: use this sparingly
• The tier 2 heading (most common) uses 2 ==, and is underlined.
  • Example: == text here ==
• Tier 3 subheading (smaller) uses 3 ===, but is not underlined.
  • Example: === text here ===
• Tier 4 subheading (even smaller) uses 4 ====, and is also not underlined.
  • Example: ==== text here ====
• the maximum is 6

Any headings/subheadings styled with the = formatting will show up on the TOC. If you just need bolded titles for subsections that do not need to appear on the TOC, use: '''Sub-Heading Text'''

Dialogue Transcripts

Example:

Eshe

Well. You've certainly gathered quite a crowd.

Are you ready for the next part of the ceremony, then?

Player

I'm ready

Eshe

Information needed.

Player

I'd like to hang out a little more.

Eshe

I suppose that is acceptable.

Simply come talk to me when you are ready to proceed.

Player

Sorry I'm not ready yet

Eshe

Then why did you come back?

Player

...Sorry, I'm ready now.

Eshe

I knew you would break eventually.

Eshe

In that case... ahem! Everyone, settle down- Kenli, put down the plate-

It is my honor as Magistrate of Kilima Village, to welcome someone new into our community.

Player, you have walked in the steps of our ancestors. Learned our ways. Shown your devotion, your kindness, your dedication to the wellbeing of every villager.

There is but one more question I must ask.

Will you accept Kilima Village as your new home?

Player

I will!

Eshe

Then it is my pleasure to present you with this wreath, woven from plants found only in our fair valley.

May it always remind you of this day, and of the promises you made here.

I welcome you, Player, as an official resident of Kilima Village.

Tables

Main Mediawiki article

!'s indicate title cells

|'s indicate data cells

The number of columns in the table will be equal to the row with the most.

Table Code

You can copy and paste this!

{| class="paliatable mw-half"
 ! Column 1 title
 ! Column 2 title
 ! Column 3 title
|-
 | Info that goes under column 1
 | Info that goes under column 2
 | Info that goes under column 3
|-
 | Info that goes under column 1
 | Info that goes under column 2
 | Info that goes under column 3
|-
 | Info that goes under column 1
 | Info that goes under column 2
 | Info that goes under column 3
|-
 | Info that goes under column 1
 | Info that goes under column 2
 | Info that goes under column 3
|}

tablescroll (for mobile!)

A large number of website visitors view the Wiki using a mobile device (Or simply a device with a small screen). Tables that use a lot of columns, or tables that have very wide columns, can cause page overflow issues for mobile viewers. To prevent any issues, surround your tables with a scrollable element:

<div class="tablescroll">
{| class="paliatable"
 ! Heading 1
 ! Heading 2
|-
 | Column 1
 | Column 2
|}
</div>

Table Widths

A few HTML classes exist that allow different sizing to be applied to tables, helping to maintain both PC and Mobile styling by automatically adjust on smaller-device screens.

• If the content of the table is too large for a small table, then the table may stretch wider than intended.

Class	Sizing	Example
mw-quarter	25% width	{| class="mw-quarter" |}
mw-third	33.3% width	{| class="mw-third" |}
mw-half	50% width	{| class="mw-half" |}
mw-threequarter	75% width	{| class="mw-threequarter" |}

Other Table Classes

Class	Purpose
mw-collapsible	Add the [Collapse]
mw-collapsed	Collapse the table and add [Expand]
paliatable	So all the tables look the same on the Palia Wiki
wikitable	For really basic tables, typically found in Template Documentation
sortable	Add the little sorting arrows to all the title cells
thover1	Highlight the cell that the mouse is hovering over
thover2	Highlight the row that the mouse is hovering over
