General Information
This is a page with templates for all the things that you will need while editing the wiki. You will find instructions on how to insert texts, images, tables, bullet lists and so on. On the right side you see the final result on the wiki, on the left hand side, the things you should write while editing the page. I suggest you to copy the right hand side and paste it on the page you are editing, then modify it as needed.
New Sites
If you create a new site, make sure to include in the first line the following tag: {{ETHZ_Basel10}} Also make sure to include directly below: {{ETHZ_Basel10_Category}}, where Category refers to Start, Project, Biology or Modeling.
This will integrate the header with the navigation menu.
If you want to change the navigation menu / header, please go to the following site: Template:ETHZ_Basel10 For changing the submenu, please go to:
- Template:ETHZ_Basel10_Start
- Template:ETHZ_Basel10_Project
- Template:ETHZ_Basel10_Biology
- Template:ETHZ_Basel10_Modeling
- Template:ETHZ_Basel10_Empty (for the dark categories)

1. Add "References" at the bottom:

You can italicize text by putting 2 apostrophes on each side. 3 apostrophes will embolden the text. 5 apostrophes will embolden and italicize the text. (4 apostrophes don't do anything special -- there's just 'one left over'.) | You can ''italicize text'' by putting 2 apostrophes on each side. 3 apostrophes will embolden '''the text'''. 5 apostrophes will embolden and italicize '''''the text'''''.

Section headings
Headings organize your writing into sections. The Wiki software can automatically generate a table of contents from them. Subsection
Using more equals signs creates a subsection. A smaller subsection
Don't skip levels, like from two to four equals signs. Start with 2 equals signs not 1 because 1 creates H1 tags which should be reserved for page title. | == Section headings == ''Headings'' organize your writing into sections.

Images
How it looks:
How it is written:
[[Image:Start_a_team.jpg|frame|none|caption text]]
If you put 'right' at the place of 'none', it will stay on the right with text on the left, if you put a '200px' and 'thumb', you will resize it to 200 pixel:
[[Image:Start_a_team.jpg|thumb|right|200px|caption text]]
Uploading a file
To upload a file is very easy. Just go to the bottom of this page and search for the link 'upload file'. Click on it and follow the instructions. Remember that you need to upload an image if you want to show it on the wiki (and it is not on an external server).
