VISUAL EDITOR - DEMONSTRATIONS

 * Visual Editor was created to allow people who have little or no knowledge of programming to add material to a Wiki site.


 * It resembles editing in a word processing program.


 * However, Visual Editor does have its limitations
 * LIMITATIONS: For example, you can place images but you have little control as to their size and location in an article.
 * With Visual Editor you can... Add a reference or footnote.


 * With Visual Editor you can create:
 * A. Paragraphs of information.
 * B. Tables.
 * C. Numbered lists.

Paragraphs and Headers: Here are the sizes of the headers as shown in the menu:

Heading - header which is 2 equal signs (==) in Wikitext coding.

Sub-heading 1 - equals (===) in Wikitext coding.

Sub-heading 2 - equals (====) in Wikitext coding.

Sub-heading 3 - equals (=====) in Wikitext coding.

Sub-heading 4 - equals (======) in Wikitext coding.

Preformatted - Removes the default font and replaces it with a font that looks like old typewriter font.

Block quote - Turns a paragraph or sentence into a block of text that is indented.

Page title - equals (=) in Wikitext coding. However, this size header is RESERVED ONLY FOR ARTICLE TITLES! DO NOT use this size of header in your articles. If you were to make a header with one equal sign, it will remove the actual title at the top of the page, leaving a blank space. In addition, the browser will think your header is now the title of the article.

TEXT STYLING:
You can make changes to the style or appearance of text. Highlight the text you want to alter and select from the drop down menu.

(Notice: You can also change style by using the Control key with another key such as a "i" to change text to italics.)

LINKS:
Creating Internal Links: Creating External Links: Enter URL.... Begin with  https://www     ...but no need for brackets.
 * I'd like to look up information from the locality of Wisconsin.
 * 1) Check out the Wikipedia using an outside browser.
 * 2) W3Schools contain very useful information.
