Bare Essentials
- Edit/create a page

- Categorize a page
- Place at the top of the page:
[[Category:{Category name}]] - Images

- Tables
- mw:Help:Tables
- All help topics

Interwiki Links
Relevant page: The InterWiki manual. Interwiki links are a great way to quickly link to a page in another instance of MediaWiki without including the full URL. The syntax is:
[[{prefix}:{page}|]]
Where the pipe is added at the end of the link to hide the interwiki prefix in the resulting link, which makes links look nicer in general. You can optionally set the link text manually by inserting it after the pipe.
Extra InterWiki Prefixes
Prefixes have been added for common locations throughout this wiki;
- Class documentation in the X2Engine class reference
-
[[x2doc:{class name}|]]Example: Contacts - Class documentation in the Yii Framework class reference
-
[[yii:{class name}|]]Example: CActiveRecord - Pages on x2engine.com
-
[[x2:{page name}|]]Example: partners
