Introduction to MediaWiki

The MediaWiki software is used by tens of thousands of websites and thousands of companies and organizations. It powers Wikipedia and also this website. MediaWiki helps you collect and organize knowledge and make it available to people. It's powerful, multilingual, free and open, extensible, customizable, reliable, and free of charge.

The structure of the content

Structure of syllabi

Core courses The lists of the core courses are placed here:

Elective courses

The lists of the elective courses are placed here:

Structure of Teaching Regulation Document

Overall teaching regulation can be found here:

Individual instructors' pages

By the following link you can find your personal instructor's page, edit it or create, if necessary. It's highly recommended to preserve common structure of the page during editing.

Content editing

How to log in the system?

Use your regular credentials for this purpose: user@innopolis.ru and the password from your account. If you cannot log in, please contact the IT-department @iuithelp

How to create a page?

From the search box If you search for a page that doesn't exist, then you will be provided with a link to create the new page.

Using the URL You can use the wiki's URL for creating a new page.

The URL to an article of the wiki is usually something like this:

If you replace ARTICLE with the name of the page you wish to create, you will be taken to a blank page which indicates that no article of that name exists yet.

To get more detailed information you can refer to the user's manual: Help: Starting a new page

How to edit a page?

Clicking the "Edit" page tab at the top of the page will take you to the edit page for that article, where you can create the new page by typing your text, and clicking submit. Moreover, if you need not edit the whole page but only its part, you can click on "Edit" link related to this certain part and work only with it. If the text is so long it helps to save a time.

Note that only the authorized users are able to edit the content.

Here you can get more information about the editing process: Help:Editing pages

How to work with text and its structuring?

Detailed user guide on text formatting: MediaWiki: User guide

How to structurize a text?

Headings are created using sequences of "=" characters, placed before the heading title and after the heading title, on the same line. The level of headings is determined by the number of "=" characters.

Examples:

Level Example
2. ==Plants==
3. ===Plants===
4. ====Plants====

Start level: 2

Do not use headings of level 1, such as "=Title="; start with level 2 instead. The heading at level 1 is used for the title of the page.

Maximum level: 6

The maximum level of a heading is 6, rendered using ======Heading L6======. Entering a heading with 7 equals-signs such as =======Heading L7======= results in the creation of a heading of the level 6, with one equal-sign becoming part of the text of the heading: "=Heading L7=".

See more details here: MediaWiki user guide: sections and headings

How to format text?

The following is an overview of text formatting available in Mediawiki:

Basic text formatting
Formatting Markup Note
Boldface '''text'''
Italics ''text''
Boldface and italics '''''text'''''
Boldface combined with wikilink '''[[text]]''' The reverse order of ticks and brackets does not work: [['''text''']]

Other text formatting such as underline or blockquote needs to be done using HTML tags, including U for underline, TT for typewriter text, S for strikethrough, SUB for lower index and SUP for upper index.

How to use HTML tags?

Text formatting can also be done using HTML and CSS. Some of the most useful HTML elements are:

Most needed HTML markup
Task Markup Note
Preformatted text 
<pre>
 preformatted
</pre>
The effect in wiki differs from the one in HTML; in wiki, the text within the PRE element is treated as within NOWIKI element, leaving all the HTML and wiki markup uninterpreted.
Blockquote 
<blockquote>Longer passage.</blockquote>
Comments 
<!-- comment -->
Avoid nesting, such as 
<!-- <!-- comment --> -->
Generic inline element 
<span style="TODO"></span>
Can be styled arbitrarily using cascading style sheets - CSS.
Generic block element 
<div style="TODO"></div>
Can be styled arbitrarily using cascading style sheets - CSS.

Some HTML elements are not allowed, such as A and IMG.

How to work with lists?

Bullet lists:

Example Syntax Example Output 
* a
** b
** c
*** d
  • a
    • b
    • c
      • d

Numbered lists:

Example Syntax Example Output 
# a
## b
## c
### d
  1. a
    1. b
    2. c
      1. d

Definition lists:

Example Syntax Example Output 
; defined term : definition
; defined term 2 : definition 2
defined term

defined term 2
definition 2

Mixed lists:

Example Syntax Example Output 
 * a
 *# b
 *# c
  • a
    1. b
    2. c

How to insert a link?

There are five types of hypertext links in MediaWiki, but two of them are the mostly used:

  • Internal links to other pages in the same wiki (commonly called "wikilinks")
  • External links to pages at other websites

Internal hyperlinks

Task Markup

How to work with math formulas?

You can enter mathematical formulas into a wiki, using a math tag, such as: 

<math>\sqrt{2}</math>

The formulas are marked up in the TeX markup, the markup of a complex typesetting system specialized on mathematics.


To get started, follow the examples below.

Examples of mathematical markup
No. Desired Effect Markup
1. 
<math>\alpha</math>
2. 
<math>\sqrt{2}</math>
3. 
<math>\sqrt{1-e^2}</math>
4. 
<math>\frac{2}{4}=0.5</math>
5. 
<math>\sum_{k=1}^N k^2</math>
6. 
<math>\int\limits_{1}^{3}\frac{e^3/x}{x^2}\, dx</math>
7. 
<math>\begin{bmatrix}
  0      & \cdots & 0      \\
  \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ 
  0      & \cdots & 0
\end{bmatrix}</math>
8. 
<math>\begin{pmatrix}
  x & y \\
  z & v 
\end{pmatrix}</math>

How to put a source code?

The following code:

		return arr
	else:
		pass
‎</syntaxhighlight>

gives:

‎
