For external links, don't use the standard mediawiki syntax, but our special template which will also give access to the page on the Internet Archive, in-case it gets deleted.
{{link | website=http://taff.org.uk | text=TAFF}}
{{link | website=http://taff.org.uk | text=TAFF | capture=2019}}
For tables, don't use the mediawiki standard tables, use the SimpleTable extension with a '||' separator between columns.
<tab border=1> Field 1||Field 2||Field 3 Field 4||Field 5||Field 6 Field 7||Field 8||Field 9 </tab>
Mediawiki for wikidot users[edit]

++ heading to == heading
+++ heading to === heading
**bold** to '''bold'''
[[[page]]] to [[page]]
[[include stub]] to {{stub}}
[[module Redirect destination="target"]] to #REDIRECT [[target]]
