Wikis like the Square Enix Wiki use a unique editing language called "Wiki Markup". This makes it easy to edit almost any page on the Wiki without needing to be literate in a complicated programming language. If you have never edited on a Wiki before, below are some of the most basic Wiki markup codes to help you get started.
 
== Text Formatting ==

* For semantic reasons, using <code>&lt;code&gt;</code> where applicable is preferable to using <code>&lt;tt&gt;</code>.

[[Chrono Trigger#History]] is a link
to a section within another page.
 
[[#Links and URLs]] is a link
to a section on the current page.
 
[[#example]] is a link to an
anchor that was created using
<div id="example">an id attribute</div>
 
* The part after the number sign (#) must match a section heading on the page. Matches must be exact in terms of spelling, case and punctuation.  Links to non-existent sections aren't broken; they are treated as links to the top of the page.
* Identifiers may be created by attaching an <code>id="..."></code> attribute to almost any HTML element.

Automatically hide stuff in parentheses:
[[Drakengard|Drakengard]].
 
Automatically hide namespace:
[[:Category:Characters|Characters]].
 
* The server fills in the part after the pipe character (|) when you save the page. The next time you open the edit box you will see the expanded piped link. When [[Wikipedia:Show preview|preview]]ing your edits, you will not see the expanded form until you press '''Save''' and '''Edit''' again. The same applies to links to sections within the same page ([[#link-to-section|see previous entry]]).

* To put an article in a [[Wikipedia:Category|Category]], place a link like the one to the right anywhere in the article. As with interlanguage links, it does not matter where you put these links while editing as they will always show up in the same place when you save the page, but placement at the end of the edit box is recommended.

Linking to other wikis:
# Interwiki link: [[Wiktionary:Hello]]
# Named interwiki link: [[Wiktionary:Hello|Hello]]
# Interwiki link without prefix: [[Wiktionary:Hello|Hello]]
 
* All of these forms lead to the URL http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Hello
* Note that interwiki links use the ''internal'' link style.
* See [[MetaWikiPedia:Interwiki_map]] for the list of shortcuts; if the site you want to link to isn't on the list, use an external link ([[#link-external|see above]]).
* See also [[Wikipedia:How to link to Wikimedia projects]].
 
Linking to another language's wiktionary:
# [[Wiktionary:fr:bonjour]]
# [[Wiktionary:fr:bonjour|bonjour]]
# [[Wiktionary:fr:bonjour|fr:bonjour]]
