This is to help people who are not very familiar with editing on Mediawiki and is also a guide to help me remember certain things that are useful when editing.
Redirecting
Sometimes you will need to redirect, for instance we have an article called Custom Firmware(CFW) which is the main article, but we also had CFW, so we added the redirect in CFW, to make it point to Custom Firmware(CFW), if you click on either link, they should direct to the same place.
Never redirect an article which contains information, only redirect an article that is completely blank.
#REDIRECT [[pagename]] <--- The command, where it says pagename, enter the name of the page that you want to be redirected to, for instance, i went into the blank page CFW and entered #REDIRECT [[CFW]], saved it then that was it set up, you can find more info here
Images
To post images, you must use Imgur Configuration parameters
<imgur>xSO1ufX.jpg</imgur> <imgur w="200">xSO1ufX.jpg</imgur> <imgur thumb="yes" w="250" comment="This is a chicken in class.">xSO1ufX.jpg</imgur>
Images can be thumbnailed and size controlled by using w attribute for width and setting the thumb attribute to yes and entering text into the comment attribute. The thumbnailed version is wrapped in a div .imgur-thumb tag and class for skin based and wiki wide CSS changes.
