Wiki formatting is very similar to (and in some cases, even uses) html programming. Words or sections of text can be modified with different "tags" applied to the beginning and

== Paragraphs == 
MediaWiki ignores single line breaks. To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line. You can force a line break within a paragraph with the HTML tag <br />.
I am typing a paragraph. This is a paragraph. It's a really exciting paragraph. There are spaceships. And laser cats. And strobe lights. Trust me this paragraph is just really cool. Very exciting. 
Here is another paragraph. This paragraph is also exciting. It's a pretty nifty paragraph.
== HTML tags == 
Some HTML tags are allowed in MediaWiki, for example <code>, <div>, and . These apply anywhere you insert them.

== Inserting symbols == 
Symbols and other special characters not available on your keyboard can be inserted through a special sequence of characters. Those sequences are called HTML entities. For example, the following sequence (entity) &rarr; when inserted will be shown as right arrow HTML symbol → and &mdash; when inserted will be shown as an em dash HTML symbol —. </translate>

See the list of all HTML entities on the Wikipedia article List of HTML entities. Additionally, MediaWiki supports two non-standard entity reference sequences: &רלמ; and &رلم; which are both considered equivalent to &rlm; which is a right-to-left mark. (Used when combining right to left languages with left to right languages in the same page.)

=== Nowiki for HTML === 
</translate>
<nowiki /> <translate>
can prohibit (HTML) tags:</translate>
* <<nowiki />pre>  → <pre>
<translate>
But not & symbol escapes:</translate>
* &<nowiki />amp;  → &
<translate>
To print & symbol escapes as text, use "&amp;" to replace the "&" character (eg. type "&amp;nbsp;", which results in "&nbsp;").
