My Sandbox
This page contains some sample text together with
some of the most commonly used pieces of wiki mark-up.
You are encouraged to edit this page to understand how the wiki works.
To start a new paragraph you just
need a blank line between lines of text.
- You will learn how
- to make bulleted
- lists
- and
- numbered ones
- as well
Some Advice
Each time you make a change to the page you can either
- save it (Save Page button)
- or preview it (Show Preview button)
It is easier to use the Show Preview button because you can then see the wiki
text and the finished web page at the same time.
However you must remember to Save the page before going off to do something else.
