Phrase Codes
These codes below allows us to importance to a portion of our text and adding some emphasis to it. We can use either the emphasis or the boldface HTML code when adding some importance to the message we have written. Other HTML code can also be used.

Emphasis
Prepend and append underscores to the text you wish to be emphasized.
_text on emphasis_ is equivalent to <em>text on emphasis</em>

To make italics text we use double underscores
__text on italics__ is equivalent to <i>text on italics</i>

Strong emphasis
Use asterisk to make text appear with strong emphasis
*text on strong emphasis* is equivalent to <strong>text on strong emphasis</strong>

And, use double asterisk to make them apear as boldface
**text on boldface** is equivalent to <b>text on boldface</b>

Citations
Enclose citation text with double question marks
??cited text?? is equivalent to <cite>cited text</cite>

Mark as deleted
Also called overstrike. Useful in editing copy with multiple versions.
-text to be deleted- is equivalent to <del>text to be deleted</del>

Mark as inserted
Used mutually with the overstrike tag. Marks the text as newly inserted text.
+inserted text+ is equivalent to <ins>inserted text</ins>

Span
Allows us to customize out text based on color or formatting using the CSS standard code. Use the percent symbol to start a span tag.
%{color:red}text in red color% is equivalent to <span style="color:red;">text in red color</span>

Lists
Precede each line with pound sign to make an ordered list like this:

# line 1
# line 2
# line 3

Which becomes,

<ol>
<li>1 line 1</li>
<li>2 line 2</li>
<li>3 line 3</li>
</ol>

To make a bulleted list, use the asterisk instead like this:

* line 1
* line 2
* line 3

Which becomes,

<ul>
<li>1 line 1</li>
<li>2 line 2</li>
<li>3 line 3</li>
</ul>

To add a nested list or increase the list indention we add another asterisk link this:

* line 1
** line 1.1
** line 1.2
* line 2
* line 3

Which becomes

<ul>
<li>line 1</li>
<ul>
<li>line 1.1</li>
<li>line 1.2</li>
</ul>
<li>line 2</li>
<li>line 3</li>
</ul>

Creating Tables
Use the pipe symbol to make tables

|This|is|a|table|
|with|two|rows|inside|

is equivalent to

<table>
<tr>
<td>This</td><td>is</td><td>a</td><td>table</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>with</td><td>two</td><td>rows</td><td>inside</td>
</tr>

Inserting Links
