FamiLAB is an ever-growing and changing community. Our space adds new tools and new classes all the time, and walking into those changes can be a little overwhelming. That's why it's important to keep our Wiki up to date.
This page includes an overview of Wiki style syntax (all the weird, nonintuitive symbols you have to use to make it readable), as well as tips on writing your content.

Help article structure
For the sake of simplicity, we're going to refer to most Wiki pages as 'Help Articles'. For the most part, Wiki pages are basically Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the Lab.
