EliteWiki:Sandbox

Welcome to the Sandbox

Welcome to the EliteWiki Sandbox, use this area to test wiki things, and leave helpful stuff for others etc.

The sandbox is for:

• learning
• playing
• testing

Name and Timestamp

Don't use these on normal pages though, just talk pages.

Pretty easy to do, just type 3 or more of these in a row: ~

Five in a row will do just the time and date. ~~~~~

and would produce this: 20:42, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Four in a row will do your name followed by date and time. ~~~~

and would produce this: ADCK 20:32, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

Three in a row will do just your name. ~~~

and would produce this: ADCK

Just typing 1 or 2 of them in a row will do nothing. ~ OR ~~

Any more than 5 will just do the date with a bunch of tilde s after it.

Testing

Below are various combinations of pictures, links, and tables. These were created by ADCK for use on various Oolite pages.
Please feel free to edit them for testing on your own pages, but please revert any changes that reduce the functionality/quality when done.

Testing Spacing of Pics

Alphabetically

Cargo Capacity

Max Speed

Base Cost

Size

Testing Spacing of Tables

Please note that this table is no longer in use, it was replaced by a nav box. But it is still a good example of how to do tables with pictures.

Table of all OXP's Information regarding Oolite's expansion packs, and the latest OXP download links. New OXPs are posted here!

All OXP's by Category

'A' to 'F' 'G' to 'M' 'N' to 'S' 'T' to 'Z'

Stuff from other sandbox that was lost

This is an example of using tables :)

A Second Example - this is the Caption

Column heading 1	Column heading 2
Column 1, Row 1	Column 2, Row 1
Column 1, Row 2	Column 2, Row 2

And of course it will let you meet various other people, and lead you to a lot of new places, some of which you probably haven't visited before.	Commander McLane	2009-01-06	1.74
