This is an example to show people how to post a news item. See here for more info and to see a video of how this post was created. And if you just want to play around and try stuff, use this playground page.

Here's a video going through how this page was created:

• Bold Text
• Italic Text
• Underlined Text
• Monospaced Text
• Strike-through Text
• CTRL+ALT+DEL
• Red
• Really small to Huge
• Serif or Sans-serif is that even a question?

An Ordered List:

1. First Item
2. Second Item
   1. A sub item
   2. another sub item
      1. A sub sub item
      2. second sub sub item
3. Third Item

An Unordered List

• First Item
• Second Item

There are a lot of plugins installed on this site that are not explicitly explained on the syntax page. However, they are all listed at the end of the syntax page, and each has a link where more information can be found on how to use it.
