Okay I want to add sup-pages for my Timeline page.

It's located at:

http://wiki.alternatehistory.com/doku.php/timelines/the_raptor_of_spain

how do I use the namespaces feature to create something like

http://wiki.alternatehistory.com/doku.php/timelines/the_raptor_of_spain/Sub-PageA

?

Wait a minute. I clicked on the Sub-PageA link and it brought me to it. Hmm. Let's try it.

You've instituted a sub-namespace: instead of putting your secondary pages into /timelines/, you have them in /timelines:the_raptor_of_spain/.

It's not that difficult to deal with, except that the /timelines:the_raptor_of_spain/ page has no inherent connection with the /timelines:the_raptor_of_spain/ namespace. For other examples of sub-namespaces, see the Index (one of the permanent links on the left in the wiki) and look at the "playground" section.

Thanks for the help with the namespaces. I now have another question, is it possible (maybe using HTML) to include tables?

I say this because I dearly want to format something in the following manner.

TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT

IMAGE IMAGE TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT
IMAGE IMAGE TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT
IMAGE IMAGE TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT

TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT

Where the IMAGE words are just 1 image. As I said, a table. Also is deleting images enabled?

Yes, I'm sorry I'm sure most of this has been covered before but I guess I was hoping for a lot of formatting options like Wikipedia.
