[edit] Advanced markup documentation

WikiPaltz uses a number of extensions which have their own markup. Advanced WikiPaltzers must become very familiar with WikiPaltz:Winter and WikiPaltz:Semantic Mediawiki. The following links may be of assistance:

• http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Winter/Documentation - Official Documentation for Winter (Wiki Interpreter - see WikiPaltz:Winter), listing all Winter markup
• http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Semantic_Forms - The extension page for Semantic Forms, which powers all the forms on WikiPaltz
• http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Semantic_MediaWiki - Official wiki for Semantic Mediawiki, which powers WikiPaltz
• http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Inline_queries - Guide for using inline queries - a central tool of Semantic Mediawiki
• http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:ParserFunctions - The Parser Functions extension, which fills in some gaps left by Winter
