Wiki Syntax Reference

Welcome to the Volaire LARP Wiki syntax helper page. This guide will walk you through all supported DokuWiki formatting options so you can confidently create clear, consistent, and properly structured pages. Whether you're contributing rules, lore, or updates, this reference will help you stay on brand and in format.

📝 All content on the Volaire LARP Wiki is Out-of-Play (OOP) unless explicitly tagged as In-Play (IP).

✨ Text Formatting

  • **Bold** → `bold`
  • //Italic// → `italic`
  • __Underline__ → `underline`
  • ''Monospace'' → `monospace`
  • ~~Strikethrough~~ → `strikethrough`
  • Combined: **__//''Fancy''//__** → `Fancy`

Paragraphs are separated by a blank line.

Use \\ at the end of a line for a forced line break. Example: This is a sentence
with a break.


  • [[operations:public:interactive_rulebook:start]]
  • [[operations:public:core:magic|Magic & Spellcasting]]

Use colons : for namespaces.

  • [[operations:public:start#navigation|Jump to Navigation]]

🧱 Headings & Structure

  • ====== Main Title ======

⚠️ Final Tips

  • Don't rely on heading-based section links—they can break if the title changes.
  • Use internal links to connect relevant rules and lore.
  • No CamelCase linking—DokuWiki does not auto-link those.
  • Be consistent with formatting—it helps readers (and staff)!
