''This page is about editing pages on this wiki in general. For editing command reference pages, also see [[Help:Reference]].''
== General ==
For in-line markup of code, commands, parameters, etc. in running text use <nowiki>{{code|some code}}</nowiki>. If there are equality signs in the code, use e.g. <nowiki>{{code|1=some=code}}</nowiki>, because the wiki templating software interprets all text up to the first equality sign as a template parameter name. Please do use the {{code|code}} template instead of the {{code|<code>}} tags, as templates are much easier to change.
''Note:'' except in [[Command]] documentation pages, where the fluidity of templates is actually a disadvantage.
In [[Command]] pages {{code|<code>}} is required.

=== Some other templates ===
There are a few other templates that may be useful:
* <tt><nowiki>{{todo|}}</nowiki></tt> adds a page to the [[:Category:ToDo|ToDo list]]. This is intended for wiki pages that need more work done.
* <tt><nowiki>{{howto}}}</nowiki></tt> adds a page to the [[:Category:How to|How to list]]. This is for wiki pages that you would like to be on the [[:Category:ToDo|ToDo list]], but where you are not sure whether the current page is the right place to add the documentation.
* <tt><nowiki>{{bug|}}}</nowiki></tt> adds a page to the [[:Category:Bugreports|Bug reports list]]. This is for problems you find in ConTeXt and/or the ConTeXt installation on the server. ''Not for wiki page problems!'' (you should fix those yourself, or add one of the two previous templates.)

=== Displaying a ConTeXt command syntax ===
If you want to show the calling convention(s) of a ConTeXt command, you can use <code><nowiki><syntax> ... </syntax></nowiki></code>. This is particularly useful in a "Command" page.
The <nowiki><syntax></nowiki> tag accepts two attributes:
