Privileges

2010-08-18T01:39:41Z

Jad Quelben: /* Privilege Definitions */

Privileges are what allows faction members to perform certain tasks, such as Arresting/Executing (A/E) and production. The rules page states it like this: "Privileges are given to members of a faction by their leader and enable the privilege holder to perform certain activities for his faction. For example, he may assign ships, post to the political news, or arrest other members of the faction."

== How they Work ==
Privileges work on a 5 level system, With level 1 being the lowest (i.e. being able to make the least change), and level 5 being the highest (i.e. you can make more change than a level 1.) To have a privilege, you DO NOT need to have all of the ones below it, i.e. You can have privilege level 2, and not have privilege level 1.

== Privilege Definitions ==
View -
* You can see the entities (or lack thereof) in the Right Hand Menu, under Faction.
Assign -
* You can Assign the Entity to another Character, or faction.
Make Over -
* You can send the entity to another Player, or faction, commonly used in [[Faction Looting]]

Privileges

2010-08-18T01:27:27Z

Jad Quelben: Finished Privilege list, added more.

Privileges are what allows faction members to perform certain tasks, such as Arresting/Executing (A/E) and production. The rules page states it like this: "Privileges are given to members of a faction by their leader and enable the privilege holder to perform certain activities for his faction. For example, he may assign ships, post to the political news, or arrest other members of the faction."

== How they Work ==
Privileges work on a 5 level system, With level 1 being the lowest (i.e. being able to make the least change), and level 5 being the highest (i.e. you can make more change than a level 1.) To have a privilege, you DO NOT need to have all of the ones below it, i.e. You can have privilege level 2, and not have privilege level 1.

== Privilege Definitions ==
View - You can see the entities (or lack thereof) in the Right Hand Menu, under Faction.
Assign - You can Assign the Entity to another Character, or faction.
Make Over - You can send the entity to another Player, or faction, commonly used in [[Faction Looting]]

IRC

2010-08-17T02:07:02Z

Jad Quelben: /* Which program should I download? */ Added Xchat.

==What is IRC? ==

IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat and it is a method for chatting with others on the internet. IRC allows you to chat in rooms called IRC channels with multiple people at the same time. These rooms can be set public, to allow anyone to participate, or private, in case a Combine faction or smaller group prefers a room of their own to use for specific members only. IRC also allows you to chat privately with another person, like an instant messenger, so that nobody can listen in on your conversation.

==Which program should I download? ==

There are many programs out there. For PCs the most popular is mIRC, which is available at http://www.mirc.com. The program is shareware, but can be used for free indefinitely. This guide will be explaining from the mIRC perspective, since it is, by far, the most commonly used IRC client available, and is the only program officially supported by the IRC help staff.

However, if you find mIRC too complicated, or if you simply do not intend to access IRC regularly enough to bother downloading a client, you can use the [http://www.swcombine.com/community/chat/index.php SWC-JavaChat]. This is a program that will open directly in your browser and defaults to the Combine's technical support channel where you can talk with the Combine's help staff live. Please note that an answer will not always come immediately, so patience is needed. Helpers volunteer their time, and do not always respond within the first 2 minutes of you coming online asking "can I get some help?" so it is best to ask your question right away upon entering, or type people's names to get their attention as many helpers set their clients to alert them when their name is entered.

Please note that it is recommended that you change your name to something other than the default SWC_Member, especially if you are having difficulties connecting, because on any IRC server, multiple people cannot have the same name. This will also make it easier for others to identify and address you.

Another good alternative for those on Linux based Operating Systems is Xchat, with their Documentation found [http://www.xchat.org here].

==mIRC Download and Installation ==

After following the download link on http://www.mirc.com, save the program to a location on your computer that you will remember (such as your desktop), and double-click the installation file to run it. Follow all of the on screen instructions, as it will walk you quickly through the process.

==Logging In ==

After opening the program and passing the pop-up screen that has the Author on it (by clicking on it), the Options window will come up. On the left hand side there is a directory tree marked "Category". To the right of that are all the options for each category.

Go to Connect > Servers

There are several servers that the program comes with but the Combine's server is not one of the defaults.

Press [Add] and fill in the following information

Description: SWC:irc.swcombine.com
IRC Server: irc.swcombine.com
Port(s): 6667
Group SWC

No Password is needed

Press [OK]

(Description can be anything, but for simplicity sake, it is a good idea to add the "SWC" and the server address. Some networks include multiple servers that are linked together, so they should all have a similar name, but that does not apply for the Combine.)

Now that you have entered the information and saved it, under IRC Server it should read SWC:irc.swcombine.com . If it does not, press the expand down arrow and search for it, then select it.

Press [Connect to Server]

==Entering a Channel ==

After you have logged in, a list of default IRC channels comes up in a popup screen. These are only general suggestions built into mIRC, and on the SWC server, none of them are actual channels (rooms). If you want you can delete them all.

In the box under Enter a channel name and click join: type in one of the following suggested channels to start off with:

#SWC-Members
#SWC-Traders

Then click Join. You are now in that channel. To join another channel type the following line:

/join #channelnamehere

Channel names cannot include spaces.

==The List of Channels ==

To view the list of all of the channels on the server that are not hidden, type:

/list

The list will come up in a separate window and will show you the channel name and topic, as well as the number of members in the channel.

==Registering your IRC nickname ==

You must register your nick with the server before anyone can give you special access (more on special access later) such as a voice, an op, or even access to a hidden channel. This will also ensure that others do not use your name, so registering your nick is highly recommended.

Type /msg nickserv REGISTER password email

where "password" is one that you choose and "email" is your email address. For another explanation of the command, you can type /msg nickserv help register

==Identifying ==

Once your nick is registered, every time you connect to the server you must identify with nickserv, or nickserv will think you are stealing someone else's nick and will change your nick to an anonymous one with a string of numbers attached. IE: swcmember12345678

To identify, type /identify password

Note: All nicks trying to join #SWC-Members or #SWC-Traders with the name swcmember###### will automatically get kicked from that room.

==Basic Commands ==

The following are some basic commands to get you started.

/me
Type this when you want to perform an action. For example, "/me goes to work" will show up as * SWC_Member goes to work

/join #channel
Replace #channel with the name of the channel to join that channel.

/msg nickserv group OriginalNick password
Change your nick to the new one that you want then type this command to link to your registered nick. You can only do this every 300 seconds.

/nick name
Where name is the new name you want as a nickname. Changes your nick.

/query username
Opens up a new window with another person

/part #channel descrip
Causes you to leave a channel and descrip is a parting message

/msg text here
Allows you to send text to another user without opening a query screen

Need to leave a message for someone who is offline? Here are the commands for Memoserv

/memoserv help
Gives a description for memoserv
/memoserv help commands
Gives a list of commands

Replace any command name in place of commands for more help on those.

To send a memo:
/memoserv send nickname|channel text-here-for-the-message
Example: /memoserv send SWC_Member Hi SWC_Member, how are you doing?

To read your memo(s)
/memoserv list
Lists the memo(s) waiting for you in your inbox.

==IRC Services Shortcuts ==

/msg nickserv & /msg chanserv can be shortened on the irc.swcombine.com server by type /ns & /cs

NickServ Help: /ns help commands
ChanServ Help: /cs help commands

This will output their respective commands. For help on a specific command, type the same thing again, but replace the word "commands" with that command. For example, if you want help with ChanServ's "set" command, you would type: /cs help set

Be aware, however, that not all IRC clients support these shortcuts. If you receive an error message when using /ns or /cs, you may need to use the long format instead (/msg nickserv and /msg chanserv).

==Auto Tasking ==

It is possible to set mIRC to automatically identify you or join specific channels or perform other such commands for you when you connect. This can save you the effort of needing to enter all of your commonly used commands manually every time you visit IRC.

Click Options [ icon 2nd to the left and has a hammer and a file]
Under Connect > Options > Perform
Checkmark "Enable perform on connect"
If the SWC is the only network you use follow Step 1 Those who use different networks follow Step 2:

Step 1: Leave Network: as "All Networks"
Under Perform commands:
Enter /identify password and your /join commands
Make sure you put each command on its own line

Step 2: Click Add Network
If you cannot see your network, you have to go to the Connect > Servers and edit your network with a Group name
Then go back to Options > Perform and Add the Network
In the drop down box, select that network
Add specific commands for that network

==Setting up a New Channel ==

To setup a new channel, first type /join #newchannel, where #newchannel is the name of the channel you want to set up. Make sure it is not registered already. You can tell by the +r at the top of the screen next to the name

Once you are in the channel, to register it, it is best that no one else is in the channel.

You must have a registered nick to register a channel:

/cs register #channel password description
#channel = the channel name you want to register
password = the password you want to set up for changing settings
description = a brief description of what the channel is for

/cs help register gives a more in-depth description of registering

Now leave and re-enter your new channel. If you are using mIRC you can type /hop to leave and re-enter.

You now have a . in front of your name, which indicates that you are the founder of the channel.

==Channel Privileges ==

Have you wondered what all the @ % and + symbols next to people's names mean?
They represent channel privileges and have the following significance:

. is Founder
@ is Op (Operator)
% is Half-Op
+ is Voiced (If the channel has +m on, anyone without at least a + cannot speak, but voice has no other function, whereas the other access levels do.)

The Channel Founder is the only one who can change the permanent settings for that channel.
If you want a cofounder, they need to type this line in once with their registered nickname. /cs identify #channelname password

OPs, depending if they are SOP or AOP can change the room topic, kick/ban people and give privs that are below their level.

HalfOPs(%) can kick people halfop and lower, and can give a halfop but cannot add an automatic halfop. HOPs(%) can give automatic voice (+) though.

Voice can speak if the room is moderated(+m), but is usually just granted to set a user apart from others.

==The Access List ==

/cs access #channel list lists everyone who has a privilege on that channel.

Part A: Follow this if your channel has the access list enabled, if you get the following messages, " -ChanServ- You can't use this command." and "-ChanServ- Use the AOP, SOP and VOP commands instead." then follow Part B

/cs access #channel add nick +30,40,50,100 adds a person to the Access List.
+0 Default level, you don't need to add this level
+30 Voice (+)
+40 Halfop (%)
+50 AOP (Auto-OP) (@)
+100 SOP (Super-OP) (@)

/cs access #channel del nick removes a person from the Access List.
/cs access #channel add nick -100 chanserv automatically bans the person

Part B: Follow this if your status screen said to use the AOP, SOP and VOP commands instead.

/cs vop #channel add nick Adds a person to the VOP list (+)
/cs hop #channel add nick Adds a person to the HOP list (%)
/cs aop #channel add nick Adds a person to the AOP list (@)
/cs sop #channel add nick Adds a person to the SOP list (@)

If you prefer the Part A method then type /cs set #channel XOP off
This will remove the XOP feature and allow you to use /cs access #channel add nick +#

==Permanent Channel Modes ==

Restricted Access: /cs set #channel restricted on/off
Restricted Access means that in order to enter the channel, you must be on the access list with any level greater than 0.

Modes: /cs set #channel mlock modes
+s Secret mode (cannot see it in /list unless you're in the channel)
+p Private mode (cannot see it in /list unless you're in the channel)
+i Invite Only
+m Moderated mode (users without a +, %, @, or . in the channel cannot speak.)

For more help type:
/cs help set
/cs help set restricted
/cs help set mlock

==Colors, Bold, Underline, Etc. ==

Colors: Hold down Ctrl + K
Follow this with the following format #,#
Where the first # is the text and the 2nd after the comma is background

A window pops up with all the available colors.

Bold Text: Hold down Ctrl + B (the same again cancels it)

==General Definitions==
* Thread/Topic: A number of individual posts related to the same topic and listed chronologically
* Forum: a page containing all threads in its category
* Message Board: a message board contains several forums

==Message Boards==
SWC contains a total of four different message boards, each with its own use:
* Message Centre: this is a completely Out-Of-Character board for everything from suggestions over administrative discussions to general chit-chat.
* RPG Centre: Mostly In-Character board with forums related to light role playing and trading
* Question Centre: This is where all your questions go!
* White Scenarios: Role playing board hosted off site. Scenarios here don't affect the database. However, you can earn XP.

You can reach the message boards from the "Forum" link at the top of every page. Please also make sure that whatever you post is in the proper forum. Each forum has a little description below the title that tells you what it is about.

===Sticky Threads===
Sticky threads are the most important topics of each forum. Often they contain the forum rules or FAQ, so please read those first (especially if the topic relates to anything you want to post) as not following the rules can get you banned from that forum rather quickly.

===Restricted Forums===
Many forums on the Message Centre are restricted to the general players. Those usually have the word "private" in their name, indicating that the game staff discusses upcoming changes or features that aren't supposed to be released to the public yet.

==Using the Forums==
===Replying to a Thread===
[[File:Screenshot-17.png|right|the list of HTML and BB codes available for use.]]You can reply to any thread that is not locked and that isn't in a read-only forum. To reply to the thread you're currently reading, simply press the "Add Reply" button on the top-right or bottom right of the thread view.

You will then be able to enter your message in the text box that appears. Note that SWC's forums do not support most BBCode (i.e. all your formatting and images/links will have to be written in HTML. A guide to what codes are usable is available on the right-hand side of the text box. You can also change the topic of your own post (however this won't affect the general topic of the thread).

Before posting, select whether you want your signature appended to your post or not and press the "preview" or "post" buttons below (the "preview" button allows you to preview your message before posting, e.g. to make sure you properly formatted it).

===Posting a New Thread===
You can post a new thread in any forum that isn't a read-only forum and that you have access to. To create a new thread, simply click the "New Topic" button at the top-right of the forum view.

You will receive a page very similar to the [[Forums#Replying to a Thread|Reply]] page that allows you to write the first post of your new topic. Don't forget to enter a proper title!

===Marking Threads as Read===
SWC's forum doesn't automatically mark threads as read once you have clicked on them. You can only mark all threads in a forum at once by clicking the "Mark Read" button on the top of the forum view.

===Moderator Options===
Forum moderators and forum administrators have more options available to them. This includes banning specific users from the forum as well as moving, closing and deleting individual threads and posts.

==Faction Forums==
Many [[Factions]] also operate their own forums for their internal discussion and communication with customers. SWC doesn't have any power over those, so any problems you have with those forums will have to be discussed with their respective operators.

Wiki Guide Editing

2010-08-16T01:52:49Z

Jad Quelben: Typos

If you are looking to help update this Guide Wiki in order to help out, please read the follow information before making any changes.

<center>'''<big>DO NOT</big> put any personal/faction acronyms, information or anything of that sort. This guide is primary an OOC work. There will be some IC information, but things like faction history, personal biographies etc are to be ignored. Anyone making such posts will find themselves banned from editing the wiki.'''</center>

==Working on the Wiki==
If you wish to help out on the wiki, please create a new account using your [[SWC]] handle. This helps the administration to reward those players that help out considerably. There are two things you can do to pages, Edit or Create.

===Editing===
Likely you will be primarily editing pages that have already been created. All changes can be removed and the original work restored so don't worry about being able to destroy everything. Then again, if you don't know what you are doing please refrain for editing as it just creates more work for others.

Click the 'Edit' link at the top of each page to open the editing window. You will see special codes which if you are not used to wiki's may be weird. See the relevant section below for more information on the codes. When editing, you can type where ever you want to fix spelling errors, or add additional information. If you are making minor changes, such as adding links, or fixing errors, please tick the 'minor edit' check box just above the save page button.

If you are making a link to another wiki page, please check that you have the right page name. In wiki's names are very sensitive so 'The Force', 'the force', 'Force' and 'force' will all go to separate pages (these can be linked to one later however). If you are unsure of the correct page name, please do not insert a link and the moderators will do that for you.

===Creating===
You create a new page when you click on a red link that appear on an already present page. This will allow you to enter in information and create the page. When making a new page, please be aware of other similar pages to get a feel for the layout and style of the system we use.

If you are making a new page, please read up on the different formatting styles there are (below) in order to have the page look presentable after you finish. If you are unsure about anything, leave it formatting-free and one of the moderators will be around and fix it up. Once you have typed everything up, it is best to copy all the text before pressing the [Save page] button. This is because you may have lost your net connection or something else that prevents your page from being saved on the wiki, and having to re-type everything is not something you will want to go through.

If you are making a link to another wiki page, please check that you have the right page name. In wiki's names are very sensitive so 'The Force', 'the force', 'Force' and 'force' will all go to separate pages (these can be linked to one later however). If you are unsure of the correct page name, please do not insert a link and the moderators will do that for you.

Also, images are a useful visual method to show what you are talking about. Please ensure that any images on your page are not too large that they take up the whole space - use thumbnails to give a smaller image which can then be clicked onto get a larger one. See the 'Images' section below.

===Images===
On the wiki, we can upload images to be used on pages to give a visual indication of what the text is explaining. When making images to complement text, please use the Dark Blue theme skin on SWC, and ensure all icons and text are set to normal size. This is to ensure that everything is consistent and allow reference for players from one page to another.

Also, please ensure that you use the minimum area required to show off what you want. Please no full-screen captures just posted in. Use an image editing software (like Photoshop) to cut out the area of the screen you need. Please save images in .png format to avoid too much loss in quality. When saving, please make the name of the image relevant to what you have an image about. Saving as 'Image1.png' helps no-one. Saving as 'Pevent.gif' is Personal Event icon.

Use the Upload file link on the left to upload your image. Once you have uploaded the image it will give you the file name (it will make sure that the first letter is capitalised). To use the image, you will need the image formating:

<code> Add image ((File:Pevent.png))
Replace the () with the square brackets [] </code>

You can also add extra bits onto the end, and these are explained below.

==Commands==
Wiki's have special formatting tags they use, and the more common ones you may need are as follows:

{| Border="1"
|-
| <nowiki>''italic''</nowiki> || ''italic'' || makes text italic
|-
| <nowiki>'''bold'''</nowiki> || '''bold''' || makes text bold
|-
| <nowiki>[[IRC]]</nowiki> || [[IRC]] || makes a link to a wiki page
|-
| <nowiki>[[IRC|I love me]]</nowiki> || [[IRC|I love me]] || makes a link to a wiki page, but with the text 'I love me' showing on the page rather than IRC
|-
| <nowiki>[http://mylink.com My Link]</nowiki> || [http://mylink.com My Link] || Provides a link to an external site, with the text My Link being highlighted
|-
| <nowiki>[[File:Pevent.png]]</nowiki> || -- || shows an image hosted on the wiki site with that name
|-
| <nowiki>[[File:Pevent.png|right|My Pictures]]</nowiki> || -- || as above, but you can say where on the page it goes (left, right, center), and text to be shown on the tooltip
|}

Jad Quelben:

Non Player Characters (NPCs) are units that aren't controlled by a human player. They have predefined Skills, and some are spawned with one or more skill points, which can be assigned by the owner. They can also become better at some skills by gaining [[XP]] to "level up". Then, their predefined skills are boosted, and they may receive some [[Skill Points]].

HP

Jad Quelben:

[[File:HPbar.png|left]] '''HP''' (or Health Points) is an indication of your current health status and general toughness. The higher the number, the more damage you can take before dying.

==How Much Health?==
When you create you character, you will be given a certain value for your HP. This is based on several different aspects including some of your skills, and your races inherent bonuses.

''HP = round((5 + Race Bonus) * Race Multiplier) + 10 + Stat Points''

* Race Bonus - this is the indicated value on your [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Races races] stat sheet
* Race Multiplier - this is the indicated value on your [http://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Races races] stat sheet
* Stat Points - one for each skill level in: Strength, Dexterity, Vigor, Speed, Perception, Unarmed Combat and Dodge

You also get an extra ''(5 * Race Multiplier)'' whenever you gain a new level. In addition, if you ever increase any of the listed skills after creation, it will add the respective amount of HP to you (ie increasing Strength from 2 to 3 will give you an extra 1HP).

{| border="1"
|-
| '''HP value of Max''' || '''Status'''
|-
| -10 || Dead
|-
| -9 - 0 || Unconscious 
|-
| 1 - 40% || Badly Wounded 
|-
| 41 - 75% || Wounded 
|-
| 76 - 99% || Slightly Wounded 
|-
| 100% || Unharmed 
|}

Dead and Unconscious values are not worked as a percentage of your max HP, but as flat values.

==Loosing Health==
You can loose health in a number of ways.

===Brawling===
This is a 1-on-1 [[Brawling|fight]] with the Brawler [[NPC]]. You will loose HP when the Brawler hits you. This cannot kill you as the fight ends when one of you reaches 1HP.

===Door Construction===
During [[Doors and Locks|door construction]], if you fail there is a 50% chance that you will suffer some HP loss as the door frame hits you on the head.

===Drugs===
Ryll-based drugs are items that look exactly like Medical Items. However, though they can heal you, they are not as effective as Medical Items. In addition, there is a chance they will actually take HP rather than give you it.

==Regaining Health==
There are a couple of ways you can recover any lost HP.

===Drugs===
Drugs are very similar to Medical Items, and look just like them. However they provide slightly less healing ability over comparable Medical Items, and also have the possibility of injuring you rather than healing.

===Natural Recovery===
This happens all the time while you have at least 1HP. You will regain HP per day equal to: ''round(XP level/3) +1''

===Medical Items===
You can use various [[Medicine|medical items]] to recover lost HP. Depending on how injured you are, some medical items will not heal you. In addition, the only way to recover health if you are unconscious (-1HP) is to be placed inside a Bacta Tank by another player.

Wiki Guide Editing

2010-08-16T00:32:54Z

Jad Quelben: Used "nowiki" tags to make it easier to copy and paste wiki formatting codes.

If you are looking to help update this Guide Wiki in order to help out, please read the follow information before making any changes.

<center>'''<big>DO NOT</big> put any personal/faction acronyms, information or anything of that sort. This guide is primary an OOC work. There will be some IC information, but things like faction history, personal biographies etc are to be ignored. Anyone making such posts will find themselves banned from editing the wiki.'''</center>

==Working on the Wiki==
If you wish to help out on the wiki, please create a new account using your [[SWC]] handle. This helps the administration to reward those players that help out considerably. There are two things you can do to pages, Edit or Create.

===Editing===
Likely you will be primarily editing pages that have already been created. All changes can be removed and the original work restored so don't worry about being able to destroy everything. Then again, if you don't know what you are doing please refrain for editing as it just creates more work for others.

Click the 'Edit' link at the top of each page to open the editing window. You will see special codes which if you are not used to wiki's may be weird. See the relevant section below for more information on the codes. When editing, you can type where ever you want to fix spelling errors, or add additional information. If you are making minor changes, such as adding links, or fixing errors, please tick the 'minor edit' check box just above the save page button.

If you are making a link to another wiki page, please check that you have the right page name. In wiki's names are very sensitive so 'The Force', 'the force', 'Force' and 'force' will all go to separate pages (these can be linked to one later however). If you are unsure of the correct page name, please do not insert a link and the moderators will do that for you.

===Creating===
You create a new page when you click on a red link that appear on an already present page. This will allow you to enter in information and create the page. When making a new page, please be aware of other similar pages to get a feel for the layout and style of the system we use.

If you are making a new page, please read up on the different formatting styles there are (below) in order to have the page look presentable after you finish. If you are unsure about anything, leave it formatting-free and one of the moderators will be around and fix it up. Once you have typed everything up, it is best to copy all the text before pressing the [Save page] button. This is because you may have lost your net connection or something else that prevents your page from being saved on the wiki, and having to re-type everything is not something you will want to go through.

If you are making a link to another wiki page, please check that you have the right page name. In wiki's names are very sensitive so 'The Force', 'the force', 'Force' and 'force' will all go to separate pages (these can be linked to one later however). If you are unsure of the correct page name, please do not insert a link and the moderators will do that for you.

Also, images are a useful visual method to show what you are talking about. Please ensure that any images on your page are not too large that they take up the whole space - use thumbnails to give a smaller image which can then be clicked onto get a larger one. See the 'Images' section below.

===Images===
On the wiki, we can upload images to be used on pages to give a visual indication of what the text is explaining. When making images to complement text, please use the Dark Blue theme skin on SWC, and ensure all icons and text are set to normal size. This is to ensure that everything is consistent and allow reference for players from one page to another.

Also, please ensure that you use the minimum area required to show off what you want. Please no full-screen captures just posted in. Use an image editing software (like Photoshop) to cut out the area of the screen you need. Please save images in .png format to avoid too much loss in quality. When saving, please make the name of the image relevant to what you have an image about. Saving as 'Image1.png' helps no-one. Saving as 'Pevent.gif' is Personal Event icon.

Use the Upload file link on the left to upload your image. Once you have uploaded the image it will give you the file name (it will make sure that the first letter is capitalised). To use the image, you will need the image formating:

<code> Add image ((File:Pevent.png))
Replace the () with the square brackets [] </code>

You can also add extra bits onto the end, and these are explained below.

==Commands==
Wiki's have special formatting tags they use, and the more common ones you may need are as follows:

{| Border="1"
|-
| <nowiki>''italic''</nowiki> || ''italic'' || makes text italic
|-
| <nowiki>'''bold'''</nowiki> || '''bold''' || makes text bold
|-
| <nowiki>[[IRC]]</nowiki> || [[IRC]] || makes a link to a wiki page
|-
| <nowiki>[[IRC\I love me]]</nowiki> || [[IRC|I love me]] || makes a link to a wiki page, but with the text 'I love me' showing on the page rather than IRC
|-
| <nowiki>[http://mylink.com My Link]</nowiki> || [http://mylink.com My Link] || Provides a link to an external site, with the text My Link being highlighted
|-
| <nowiki>[[File:Pevent.png]]</nowiki> || -- || shows an image hosted on the wiki site with that name
|-
| <nowiki>[[File:Pevent.png\right\My Pictures]]</nowiki> || -- || as above, but you can say where on the page it goes (left, right, center), and text to be shown on the tooltip
|}
