Revision as of 15:35, 18 March 2014

You can use the Wikia editor tools to modify the appearance of text to help format, highlight or call out particular areas of interest.

Step by step

Once you click the edit button and enter the editor, you will see this toolbar on top of the page.

Highlight the text you wish to modify with your cursor, and then choose:
- to make the text bold.
- to make the text italic.
- to underline the text.
- to ~~strike-through~~ the text.
To return to normal text mode, re-highlight the text and click on the active button to unselect it.

Editing in source mode

If you wish to edit in source mode, you can format your content using Wikitext.
