CheatEngine is a wiki, meaning that anyone can easily edit any unprotected page, and save those changes immediately to that page, making the alterations visible to every other reader. You do not even need to register to do this. After your first edit, you will be a CheatEngine editor!

Note: You can use the sandbox to experiment with page editing.

Introduction[edit]

Editing most Cheat Engine Wiki pages is easy. Simply click on the "edit this page" tab at the top of a Cheat Engine Wiki page (or on a section-edit link). This will bring you to a new page with a text box containing the editable text of the original page.
When you are finished with an edit, you should write a short edit summary in the small field below the edit-box. You may use shorthand to describe your changes, as described in the legend. To see how the page looks with your edits, press the "Show preview" button. To see the differences between the page with your edits and the previous version of the page, press the "Show changes" button. If you're satisfied with what you see, be bold and press the "Save page" button. Your changes will immediately be visible to all CheatEngine users.

You can also click on the "Discussion" tab to see the corresponding talk page, which contains comments about the page from other CheatEngine users. Click on the "new section" tab to start a new section, or edit the page in the same way as an article page.

You should also remember to sign your messages on talk pages and some special-purpose project pages with four tildes (~~~~), but you should not sign edits you make to regular articles. In page history, the MediaWiki software automatically keeps track of which user makes each change.

Minor edits[edit]

Template:further A check to the "minor edit" box signifies that only superficial differences exist between the version with your edit and the previous version: typo corrections, formatting and presentational changes, rearranging of text without modifying content, etc. A minor edit is a version that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. The "minor edit" option is one of several options available only to registered users.

Major edits[edit]

Template:see

All editors are encouraged to be bold, but there are several things that a user can do to ensure that major edits are performed smoothly. Before engaging in a major edit, a user should consider discussing proposed changes on the article discussion/talk page. During the edit, if doing so over an extended period, the {{Inuse}} tag can reduce the likelihood of an edit conflict. Once the edit has been completed, the inclusion of an edit summary will assist in documenting the changes. These steps will all help to ensure that major edits are well received by the CheatEngine community.

A major edit should be reviewed to confirm that it is consensual to all concerned editors. Therefore, any change that affects the meaning of an article is major (not minor), even if the edit is a single word.

There are no necessary terms to which you have to agree when doing major edits, but the recommendations above have become best practice. If you do it your own way, the likelihood of your edits being reedited may be higher.

Occasionally your browser will crash. When doing a large edit it is suggested you copy the code of the article you are working on and placing it in a text editor (preferably one without formatting, such as MS Notepad) periodically. This ensures that in the case of a browser crash you will not lose your work. It may also be a good idea to save the page after performing a substantial amount of work before adding additional content to the article.

Wiki markup[edit]

Template:shortcut

Wiki markup is the language you use to format a CheatEngine page; please see Editing for details on it, and Wikitext examples for a longer list of the possibilities of Wikitext.

Links and URLs[edit]

The anchor element, <a>, is not allowed. The following are used instead: [[ ]], [ ], ~~~~, ~~~, http, ISBN, RFC & {{ }}. See the table below.

What it looks like What you type

London has public transport. (Article link)

  • A link to another Wiki article.
  • Internally, the first letter of the target page is automatically capitalized and spaces are represented as underscores (typing an underscore in the link has the same effect as typing a space, but is not recommended).
  • Thus the link above is to the URL en.CheatEngine.org/wiki/Public_transport, which is the CheatEngine article with the name "Public transport". See also Canonicalization.

London has [[public transport]].

(Signing comments)

The character tilde (~) is used when adding a comment to a Talk page. You should sign your comment by appending four tildes (~~~~) to the comment so as to add your user name plus date/time:

Patricia Zhang 13:40, Jan 14, 2007 (UTC)

Adding three tildes (~~~) will add just your user name:

Patricia Zhang

and adding five tildes (~~~~~) gives the date/time alone:

13:40, Jan 14, 2007 (UTC)
  • The first two both provide a link to your user page.

The character '''tilde''' (~) is used when adding a comment to a Talk page. You should sign your comment by appending four tildes (~~~~) to the comment so as to add your user name plus date/time:
:~~~~
Adding three tildes (~~~) will add just your user name:
: ~~~
and adding five tildes (~~~~~) gives the date/time alone:
: ~~~~~

(Redirects)

  • Redirect one article title to another by placing a directive like the one shown to the right on the first line of the article (such as at a page titled "USA").
  • It is possible to redirect to a section. For example, a redirect to United States#History will redirect to the History section of the United States page, if it exists.

#REDIRECT [[United States]]


#REDIRECT [[United States#History]] will redirect to the [[United States]] page, to the History section, if it exists

(Linked and why)

What links here and Related changes pages can be linked as:
Special: Whatlinkshere/CheatEngine: How to edit a page and Special: Recentchangeslinked/CheatEngine: How to edit a page

'''What links here''' and '''Related changes''' pages can be linked as:
[[Special: WhatLinkshere/CheatEngine: How to edit a page]] and
[[Special: RecentChangeslinked/ CheatEngine: How to edit a page]]

(User edits)

A user's Contributions page can be linked as: Special:Contributions/UserName or Special:Contributions/192.0.2.0

A user's '''Contributions''' page can be linked as: [[Special:Contributions/UserName]] or [[Special:Contributions/192.0.2.0]]

(Categorize)

  • To put an article in a category, place a link like the one to the right anywhere in the article. As with interlanguage links, it does not matter where you put these links while editing as they will always show up in the same place when you save the page, but placement at the end of the edit box is recommended.

[[Category:Character sets]]

(Book sources)

ISBN 012345678X

ISBN 0-12-345678-X

  • Link to books using their ISBN. This is preferred to linking to a specific online bookstore, because it gives the reader a choice of vendors. However, if one bookstore or online service provides additional free information, such as table of contents or excerpts from the text, then a link to that source will aid the user and is recommended.
  • ISBN links do not need any extra markup, provided you use one of the indicated formats.

ISBN 012345678X

ISBN 0-12-345678-X

(RFC number)

Text mentioning an RFC number anywhere, e.g. RFC 4321.

Text mentioning an RFC number anywhere, e.g. RFC 4321.

(“As of” tag)

“As of” tags like "As of April 2009" and "as of April 2009" categorize info that will need updating.

“[[WP:As of|As of]]” tags like "{{As of|2009|4|df=us}}" and "{{As of|2009|4|df=us|lc=on}}" categorize info that will need updating.

Images[edit]

Only images that have been uploaded to CheatEngine can be used. To upload images, use the upload page. You can find the uploaded image on the image list.

What it looks like What you type
A picture:

File:wiki.png 

A picture: 
[[Image:wiki.png]]
With alternative text:

CheatEngine, The Free Encyclopedia. 

With alternative text:
[[Image:wiki.png|CheatEngine, The Free Encyclopedia.]]
  • Alternative text, used when the image is unavailable or when the image is loaded in a text-only browser, or when spoken aloud, is strongly encouraged. See Alternative text for images for help on choosing it.
Floating to the right side of the page using the frame attribute and a caption:
File:wiki.png
CheatEngine Encyclopedia

 
Floating to the right side of the page 
using the ''frame'' attribute and a caption:
[[Image:wiki.png|frame|CheatEngine Encyclopedia]]
  • The frame tag automatically floats the image right.
  • The caption is also used as alternate text.
Floating to the right side of the page using the thumb attribute and a caption:
File:wiki.png
CheatEngine Encyclopedia

 
Floating to the right side of the page 
using the ''thumb'' attribute and a caption:
[[Image:wiki.png|thumb|CheatEngine Encyclopedia]]
  • The thumb tag automatically floats the image right.
  • The caption is also used as alternate text.
  • An enlarge icon is placed in the lower right corner.
Floating to the right side of the page without a caption:
CheatEngine Encyclopedia
 
Floating to the right side of the page
''without'' a caption:
[[Image:wiki.png|right|CheatEngine Encyclopedia]]

A picture resized to 30 pixels...
[[Image:wiki.png|30 px]]
Linking directly to the description page of an image:

Image:wiki.png 

Linking directly to the description page
of an image:
[[:Image:wiki.png]]
  • Clicking on an image displayed on a page

(such as any of the ones above) also leads to the description page

Linking directly to an image without displaying it:

Image of the jigsaw globe logo 

Linking directly to an image
without displaying it:
[[:media:wiki.png|Image of the jigsaw globe logo]]
  • To include links to images shown as links instead of drawn on the page, use a "media" link.
Using the span and div tag to separate images from text (note that this may allow images to cover text): 
Example:
<div style="display:inline;
width:220px; float:right;">
Place images here </div>
Using wiki markup to make a table in which to place a vertical column of images (this helps edit links match headers, especially in Firefox browsers): 
Example: {| align=right
|-
| 
Place images here
|}

See the CheatEngine's image use policy as a guideline used on CheatEngine.

For further help on images, including some more versatile abilities, see the topic on Extended image syntax.

Headings[edit]

For a heading, put it on a separate line. A level-two heading, the highest level editors use in an article, for example: 

  == Introduction ==
  Editing most CheatEngine pages is easy.

Subheadings use '===', '====', and so on, down to level-six.

Level-one headings are automatically generated for the articles title, which is not available in the edit box.

Character formatting[edit]

What it looks like What you type

Italicized text
Bold text
Italicized & Bold text 

''Italicized text''
'''Bold text'''
'''''Italicized & Bold text'''''

Syntax highlighting for source code.

Computer code has a colored background and more stringent formatting. Suppose we want to define int main(): 

#include <iostream>
int main ( int argc,  char **argv ) {
    std::cout << "Hello World!";
    return 0;
}

Computer code has a colored background and more stringent formatting. Suppose we want to define int main(): 

<source lang=cpp>#include <iostream>
int main ( int argc,  char **argv ) {
    std::cout << "Hello World!";
    return 0;
}</source>

You can use small text for captions. 

You can use <small>small text</small> for captions.

Better stay away from big text, unless it's within small text. 

Better stay away from <big>big text</big>, unless
<small> it's <big>within</big> small</small> text.

You can strike out deleted material and underline new material.

You can also mark deleted material and inserted material using logical markup. For backwards compatibility better combine this potentially ignored new logical with the old physical markup.

  • When editing regular CheatEngine articles, just make your changes and do not mark them up in any special way.
  • When editing your own previous remarks in talk pages, it is sometimes appropriate to mark up deleted or inserted material.
 
You can <s>strike out deleted material</s>
and <u>underline new material</u>.

You can also mark <del>deleted material</del> and
<ins>inserted material</ins> using logical markup.
For backwards compatibility better combine this
potentially ignored new <del>logical</del> with
the old <s><del>physical</del></s> markup.

Suppressing interpretation of markup:
Link → (''to'') the [[CheatEngine FAQ]]

  • Used to show literal data that would otherwise have special meaning.
  • Escape all wiki markup, including that which looks like HTML tags.
  • Does not escape HTML character references.
  • To escape HTML character references such as &rarr; use &amp;rarr;
 


<nowiki>Link &rarr; (''to'') 
the [[CheatEngine FAQ]]</nowiki>

Commenting page source:

  • Used to leave comments in a page for future editors.
  • Note that most comments should go on the appropriate Talk page.

  • The Manual of Style prefers the x<sub>1</sub> format.
  • The latter methods of sub/superscripting cannot be used in the most general context, as they rely on Unicode support which may not be present on all users' machines. For the 1-2-3 superscripts, it is nevertheless preferred when possible (as with units of measurement) because most browsers have an easier time formatting lines with it.

Mathematical formulae:
<math>\,\! \sin x + \ln y</math>
Template:math

<math>\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{0}</math>
Template:math

  • Complex formulae should use <math> markup.
  • Simple formulae may use either <math> markup or HTML/wiki markup using the Template:tl template with <i> and <b> or '' and ''' for formatting. Make sure to replace = with Template:tl.
  • Ordinary text should use wiki markup for emphasis. However, mathematical formulae often use italics, and sometimes use bold, for reasons unrelated to emphasis. Per CheatEngine:Manual of Style (mathematics), wiki markup ('' and ''') is preferred over HTML markup (<i> and <b>), but both are allowed.
 


<math>\,\! \sin x + \ln y</math><br>
{{math|sin ''x'' + ln ''y''}}

<math>\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{0}</math><br>
{{math|<b>x</b> {{=}} <b>0</b>}}

Spacing in simple math formulae:
Obviously, Template:math is true when Template:math is a real number.

  • Using &nbsp; to prevent linebreak is not needed; the Template:tl template will prevent line breaks anyway; you can use <br> if you need an explicit line break inside a formula.
 


Obviously, {{math|''x<''<sup>2</sup> ≥ 0}} is true
when {{math|<VAR >x</VAR >}} is a real number.

Complicated formulae:

<math>\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{x^n}{n!}</math>
  • See Help:Displaying a formula for how to use <math>.
  • A formula displayed on a line by itself should probably be indented by using the colon (:) character.
 


: <math>\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{x^n}{n!}</math>

(see also: Chess symbols in Unicode)

No or limited formatting—showing exactly what is being typed[edit]

A few different kinds of formatting will tell the Wiki to display things as you typed them—what you see, is what you get!

What it looks like What you type
<nowiki> tag:

The nowiki tag ignores [[Wiki]] ''markup''. It reformats text by removing newlines and multiple spaces. It still interprets special characters: → 

<nowiki>
The nowiki tag ignores [[Wiki]] ''markup''.
It reformats text by removing newlines 
and multiple spaces.
It still interprets special
characters: &rarr;
</nowiki>
<pre> tag:
The pre tag ignores [[Wiki]] ''markup''.
It also doesn't     reformat text.
It still interprets special characters: →

<pre>
The pre tag ignores [[Wiki]] ''markup''.
It also doesn't     reformat text.
It still interprets special characters:
 &rarr;
</pre>
Leading space:

Leading spaces are another way to preserve formatting. 


Putting a space at the beginning of each line
stops the text   from being reformatted. 
It still interprets Wiki markup and
special characters: →

Leading spaces are another way 
to preserve formatting.
 Putting a space at the beginning of each line
 stops the text   from being reformatted. 
 It still interprets [[Wiki]] ''markup'' and
 special characters: &rarr;

Invisible text (comments)[edit]

Template:main It's uncommon, but on occasion acceptable, to add a hidden comment within the text of an article. The format is this: 

<!-- This is an example of text that won't normally be visible except in "edit" mode. -->

Table of contents[edit]

At the current status of the wiki markup language, having at least four headers on a page triggers the table of contents (TOC) to appear in front of the first header (or after introductory sections). Putting __TOC__ anywhere forces the TOC to appear at that point (instead of just before the first header). Putting __NOTOC__ anywhere forces the TOC to disappear. See also Compact TOC for alphabet and year headings.

Tables[edit]

There are two ways to build tables:

  • in special Wiki-markup (see Table)
  • with the usual HTML elements: <table>, <tr>, <td> or <th>.

For the latter, and a discussion on when tables are appropriate, see When to use tables.

NUMBEROFARTICLES is the number of pages in the main namespace which contain a link and are not a redirect, in other words number of articles, stubs containing a link, and disambiguation pages.

CURRENTMONTHNAMEGEN is the genitive (possessive) grammatical form of the month name, as used in some languages; CURRENTMONTHNAME is the nominative (subject) form, as usually seen in English.

In languages where it makes a difference, you can use constructs like {{grammar:case|word}} to convert a word from the nominative case to some other case. For example, {{grammar:genitive|{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}}} means the same as {{CURRENTMONTHNAMEGEN}}.

Templates[edit]

The MediaWiki software used by CheatEngine has support for templates. This means standardized text chunks (such as boilerplate text), can be inserted into articles. For example, typing Template:tl will appear as "This article is a stub. You can help CheatEngine by expanding it." when the page is saved. See Template messages for the complete list. Other commonly used templates are: Template:tl for disambiguation pages and Template:tl like an article stub but for a section. There are many subject-specific stubs for example: Template:tl, Template:tl, and Template:tl. For a complete list of stubs see Stub types.
