Before you start to add or change content, please read:

Wiki Syntax

To get started with the MediaWiki syntax, read:

Tips

Syntax highlighting
Wrap your C++ Qt/KDE code snippets in <syntaxhighlight lang="cpp">, <syntaxhighlight lang="cpp" line="">, <syntaxhighlight lang="cpp-qt"> and </syntaxhighlight> to get syntax highlighting (cpp for C++, cpp-qt for Qt) and numbered lines (line=""). Replace cpp with the language used, e.g. ruby for Ruby and python for Python (soon). Use ini for .desktop files, xml for XML files.

New Templates

To get a list of pages using a template, go to corresponding template page (e.g. Template:movepage) and click "What links here" in the toolbox.

{{movepage|url}}
Use this template to mark a page as not finished.
{{improve|explanation}}
Pages which need cleanups or contain empty sections and/or todos are marked with this template. Add an explanation if you want (optional)
{{tip|text}}
Use this template to add a tip for the reader.
{{note|text}}
Use this template to add an explanatory note.
{{warning|text}}
Use this template to add a warning.
{{qt|class-name}} and {{qt3|class-name}}
Use this template to generate a link to a Qt class, e.g. QWidget. For Qt3 classes use {{qt3|class-name}}
{{class|class-name}}
Use this template to generate a link to a KDE class, e.g. KDialog.
{{path|path-or-filename}}
Use this template for paths and filenames, this way all of them have a consistent style.
{{bug|123456}}
Use this template to automatically create a link to KDE's bugzilla.
{{KDE3}}
Use this template to mark the content of a page as applicable for either KDE 3. Don't tag technology agnostic pages. For KDE4 content, use [[Category:KDE4]].
{{TutorialBrowser|series|name|pre|next|reading}}
A template for tutorial navigation
{{Box|caption|text|width|float}} - Deprecated, please use Box1
Use this template to create a box with a caption and a text. The width parameter is optional and can be specified absolute (400px) or relative (50%). The last parameter is the float value, which is also optional and defaults to center.
{{Box1|text|caption|icon image|color code}}
Use this template to create a box with a caption and a text. The color colde parameter is optional. Normally you would use one of the partial instantiations of Box1, such as Template:Info, Template:Note, Template:Tip, Template:Warning, or Template:Remember; each of these take a title as an optional second argument.
