standardised formatting @ Help Wiki

[HeiKue]

Is there a wiki page that describes how we format help pages (perhaps with wiki text templates)?

• keyboard shortcuts? I found {{{key}}}, `key` and **`key`**
• keyboard shortcuts in table? I found left and center
• table headers? I found || header || and ||= header =|| and ||= **header** =||
• ...

I am currently translating en/de and already see different formatting on the English pages.

P.S. Is there another way besides the ticket system to simply exchange small informations about editing the help wiki?

It is a long time developed wiki, which means over the time things changed.

• keyboard shortcuts? I found {{{key}}}, `key` and **`key`**

{{{key}}} and `key` are identical, **`key`** is the current standard

• keyboard shortcuts in table? I found left and center

I'd expect center to be standard

• table headers? I found || header || and ||= header =|| and ||= **header** =||

||= header =|| should be standard

P.S. Is there another way besides the ticket system to simply exchange small informations about editing the help wiki?

Currently the ticket system is the main communications platform. All the others are disabled or unused.

P.S. You should update your mailserver: "Client host [95.216.72.248] blocked using ix.dnsbl.manitu.net". All NixSpam servers are out of operation.

What do you think about creating a small wiki page describing formatting standards.

• table headers
• keyboard shortcuts (in table)
• page structure
  • headers
  • table of content
  • "Back to" structure (bottom of page)

I can create this page to discuss about and successively expand it.

I have no influence, as my ISP is responsible for this :-(
However, I keep getting notifications, but only sometimes not.
Could it be that the OSM server was once misused as a spam server and was therefore temporarily blacklisted?

Problem with new page would be, that nobody reads it and it gets out of sync. I think it's best simply using one style and people will look at other pages how to do things anyway.

No. The issue here is, that the mail server used/uses NixSpam service which is no longer operated. Manitu is probably answering negative to get rid of all the admins who aren't able to fix their config. You should contact your ISP if it is not fixed yet: ​https://nixspam.net/
