Getting started
Consult the User's Guide for information on using the wiki software.
Making an Image Gallery
Here is an example of an image gallery, if you have a lot of related images that you want to group together.
 Train View 1 |
 Train View 2 |
 Train View 3 |
To make this gallery, I used the following code:
<gallery> Image:Montreal1.jpg|Train View 1 Image:Montreal2.jpg|Train View 2 Image:Montreal3.jpg|Train View 3 </gallery>
Note that you don't need to use the brackets around the Image code when you're making a gallery. The code to the left is the image file name, and the code to the right of the bar is the caption.

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO ADD THE YOUTUBE VIDEO ONTO THE PAGES? (EMBEDDED FILES?)
Audio
Here is an example of an embedded audio file.
The code to embed a song, and have it play on automatically on a loop, looks like this:
<flashmp3>jig.mp3|loop=yes</flashmp3>
Video
Dear Class,
I won't be at my office hours next week, because I have been called to jury duty. But, with some inspiration from Liz Lemon, I will do my best to get out of it and return to Baruch as quickly as possible.
If you're wondering how to embed video in our wiki, click "edit" for this page to see the code, which looks like this:
<videoflash>AzusuXSj8Y0</videoflash>
As you can see, it's very simple. The letter-numbers string in the middle of the code is the ID of the video from Youtube. The extension is set to Youtube by default. If you are embedding a Google video, the code should be:
<videoflash type="googlevideo"|center>1811244420765</videoflash>
Let me know if you have questions!

Google Maps
To embed a map, select our new button from the editing panel -- last one on the right. It will give you a searchable map that you can add addresses to. It will then generate the code that you need to paste into your page or section. That is how I generated the map below.
