Rules

Here are the rules.

I use this moinmoin platform for its ability for table and XML export.

This wiki will be post-processed by XSLT/XML tools and should be written accordingly:

 ... commands examples ...

This ensures (eventually) clean conversion to DocBook XML and makes my work easy. :-)


If funny things happen, look for single quote repeats, etc. in wiki source.

Code sections marked as "{ { { \n } } }" without using spaces will cause XML export errors; thus, always use spaces around \n.

List export has <para> markup bugs; after conversion, review and correct them, please.

Escape confusion

MoinMoin conversion bug for " \n " needs to be worked around by placing space around it.

srslash-n:  \n rslash-ns: \n  rslash-n: \n : this

can be referred as @{@internallinks@}@ which will create correct reference in HTML.

Do not use " [[Anchor(internalLinks)]] " for now in the main text used by building final HTML files. (It may be a good idea but you need to do it for entire document.)

The normal anchor feature of MoinMoin wiki is not supported by the XML conversion tool now.
