AVID:Tutorial Guide

AVID Sans

Our goal at AVID is to document as many company identities as possible, and how you can help, is by writing articles for the wiki.

This tutorial is designed to give users a basic rundown of how articles on AVID should be formatted, as well as comprehensive descriptions on page elements you may run into.

New to MediaWiki?
No problem! If you need help learning the features of the MediaWiki editing system, please refer to MediaWiki Help. This will give you a quick guide on how to edit on the MediaWiki system. This manual may not be needed if users are already familiar with editing on Wikipedia, FANDOM or other Miraheze wikis.

Articles on AVID use a standard format. In order, the article formatting elements used are: Any elements tagged with "*" are required on all pages.
 * Page Buttons - Use this template if there are additional pages connected to the company, such as Logo Variations or Trailers.
 * Credits - Credits should be added to all new pages. It informs the reader the users worked on the article they're reading. *
 * Infobox - A template that summarizes the company's background. Useful for articles of larger studios.
 * Background - A crash course on the company's history. This may prove more helpful than infoboxes, in certain scenarios.
 * Table of Contents - Helps for easier navigation in an article. Three different types are presented.
 * Header - Shows the time period the logo was used between, as well as where it is placed chronologically. *
 * Gallery - Where images and videos of the logo are displayed.
 * Description Sections - The most important part of any article, this format has mostly stayed the same for over 20 years. *
 * Final Note - If a company no longer exists, this short description essentially explains the fate of the company and how it went defunct.
 * External Links - Add supplementary material about the company's history.
 * Chronology - Links companies to its successors (and/or predecessors).
 * Navboxes - A small box at the bottom of the page which allows for easy navigation between pages.
 * Categories - Where articles with a common trait or topic are placed for sorting. *

Page Buttons
(optional element) Where a page also has a Logo Variations page or you intend to create them, you should add the  template to allow for easy navigation between these pages. The markup for this is as follows: ,

which results in:

You can add or remove any of the three additional parameters depending on your needs, for example:

,

,

If using this template, be sure to put it on all the pages you added buttons for to ensure coherent and smooth navigation between them.

Credits
See AVID:Adding Credits for guidelines on how to add credits. An example is provided below:

The following syntax was used:

Infobox
(optional element) Infoboxes are used to give the reader bite-sized information about the company being described in the article. Remember, not all articles have infoboxes, as some companies do not have sufficient information to warrant it.

Background
(optional element) This is the background. The paragraph you type here will describe the history of the company whose logos you're describing. Talk about information such as who founded the company, when it was founded, the company that owns it, any subsidiaries they have, and more. It's a good section to write for those who may not know about the company's backstory, and we recommend to write this for many articles. Remember, it is required to bold any company name the first time it is mentioned. Also, if the background needs to be split into multiple paragraphs, you are able to do so.

In 1935, Twentieth Century Pictures, Inc. and Fox Film Corporation merged to form Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation (the hyphen was dropped in 1984). During the Golden Age of Hollywood, it was one of the "Big Five" studios (the others were MGM, Paramount Pictures, RKO Radio Pictures, and Warner Bros.). From 2013 to 2019, it was a subsidiary of Twenty-First Century Fox Inc., which was formed when News Corporation split into two companies. As of January 2023, their three most financially successful films are Avatar, released in 2009, its sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water, released in 2022, and Titanic (under international rights), released in 1997 (all of which were directed by James Cameron). 20th Century Fox also has a specialty division named Fox Searchlight Pictures (currently known as Searchlight Pictures), whose distributed its titles internationally until 2019.

On December 14, 2017, The Walt Disney Company announced its plans to buy most of 21st Century Fox's assets, which included a bidding war with Comcast. The process was completed on March 20, 2019, with the last pre-Disney release from the studio being Alita: Battle Angel, released on February 14, 2019. The remaining assets Disney didn't acquire, notably the Fox network and Fox News, were spun-off into a new company called Fox Corporation. On January 17, 2020, Disney announced that it would be dropping the word "Fox" from the company name, presumably to avoid confusion with Fox Corporation, renaming it to 20th Century Studios, along with Searchlight Pictures. Nevertheless, Disney continues to own perpetual rights to the 20th Century Fox name for the studio's legacy film library. However, the studio was still legally incorporated and traded as Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation until December 4, 2020. As of December 4, 2020, the company has been using 20th Century Studios, Inc. as copyright for 20th Century Studios and Searchlight Pictures, while the company has been using 20th Television, Inc. for the copyright of 20th Television productions as a Disney subsidiary. As of early 2020, titles from 20th Century Studios and Searchlight Pictures are released internationally through Buena Vista International.

Table of Contents
(optional element) When an article has more than three separate sections, a Table of Contents is automatically included for easier navigation on the page. Typically, they look like this:

However, there are cases where visual previews of the logos may be desired. For that, the ImageTOC template is available, which supports up to a hundred different logos. An example of it is below:

The following syntax was used:

Sometimes, when a company has gone through one or more name changes, the SeparateTOC template may be of use instead, which supports up to ten name changes. An example of it is below:

The following syntax was used:

Header
At the top of a logo description, you will see this header. This is an example of what it looks like:

The header provides some info about the logo's lifespan: The first set of question marks are used to identify if the logo is the 1st in the article, 2nd, 3rd, and so on. The second set is used to signify any official nicknames for the logo. The third set is to signify what year the logo is introduced. Remember, if specific dates are available, use those. If the logo is still being used today, omit the fourth question mark set, otherwise insert the year/date the logo was last used.

There is a simplified way to do this; the  template. When adding logos, simply add the number you're up to into this template (1, 2, etc.) and it will automatically change to 1st, 2nd, etc. This template simplifies the process of re-adding the suffixes (st, nd, rd, th) to the numbers if a logo is removed or relocated on the page for some reason.

Gallery
(optional element) This is where images and videos of the logos will be displayed, for readers to get an idea of what the logo looks like, as well as to view videos of the logo's full animation. Galleries are recommended for a vast majority of logos on the wiki. For more specific info, see AVID:Adding Captures.

Images= Put any images here, using the gallery template. Videos= Put any YouTube videos here, using the YouTube template.

Description Sections
Logo/ID/Trailer: The heart of it all. This is used to describe what happens in the logo. Start by stating what the background looks like, and then describe any animations that happen during the logo. Be very descriptive on this part - use adjectives if possible, and try to describe every little detail.
 * If the logo is still, describe the image as best as possible, including the background and whatever else is on it.
 * Take your time on these, and make sure you revise, because if you leave an important detail out, you can easily confuse people.

Animated logo example: Logo: A picture of the Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank is seen with a tint, and ripples slowly before rotating to reveal itself as the WB shield over the quintessential cloud background, both of which are now redone in CGI. The shield continues to rotate as it zooms out to its usual position, with the company byline fading in underneath.

Still logo example: Logo: Over a sky background, we see the 1984 shield logo with the banner inscription "Times New Roman".

Multiple logos example: Logo: Here are the main variants of this logo:
 * 1977-2009: On a black background, two flashes move horizontally throughout the screen, forming parallel outlines from opposite sides of the screen. Both outlines have several slits and curves. Then the flashes move vertically to connect the two lines together, and form an outlined "Impact" inside of the new shape. Once finished, an  flash appears behind the outline. As the flash becomes bright, "Impact" fades out, and "Boston Presents" appears in an  Helvetica font. This was used as a bumper at the beginning of shows.
 * 1993-2008: Similar to the other logo, but the "Impact" logo is already formed. The flash occurs, but this time "Impact" does not fade out. Additionally, the word "BOSTON" fades in, spaced out below the logo in an Univers font.

Trivia (optional): If there is some trivia about the logo, put them in this section. Examples include: the person/company that designed the logo, what software was used, some behind-the-scenes facts, official or notable nicknames the logo was given, etc.
 * Avoid putting information that is pop culture related/doesn't relate directly to the logo or its production. We recommend putting those in our dedicated pop culture logos page instead.

Single trivia examples: Trivia: Although Disney switched its newer animated movies from traditional cel animation to digital ink-and-paint via CAPS (Computer Animation Production System) in 1990, the cel-animated version of this logo continued to be used until at least mid-2005, even though two digitally animated versions debuted in 1994 and 2002, respectively. Trivia: 24 stars surround the mountain: one for each movie star that had a contract with the studio at the time.

Multiple trivia examples: Trivia:
 * According to then-TriStar head Victor Kaufman, "one of the advisers in creating the company was Sydney Pollack, who was a famous director and actor, and he helped us put together the logo. The horse for the TriStar logo was the horse from The Electric Horseman, which he directed and made with Robert Redford. And the horse from The Electric Horseman was a dark horse, so he transposed the horse to look white, and put it on the screen, and created a Pegasus and created [...] the music and everything".
 * According to Elizabeth Kaye McCall's book The Tao of Horses, the Pegasus was played by "T-Bone", a white Arabian gelding who was trained by Hollywood horse trainer Corky Randall. The Pegasus sequence was filmed at night in an outdoor arena that Randall frequently used. T-Bone, powdered to look whiter, was to run in an especially made L-passage flanked by black curtains. When Randall called him, he galloped through it, and jumped over a fence to reach him, creating the desired effect.

Incorrect example - Trivia does not relate to the logo directly: Trivia: At the time, ABC was the most watched television network in America due to the popularity of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.

Byline(s) (optional): If the logo uses multiple bylines during its period of use, add them here.

Bylines:
 * June 8, 1984-September 14, 1990: "Times New Roman"
 * March 9, 1990-February 26, 1993: "Times New Roman"
 * August 14, 1992-February 2, 2001: "Times New Roman"

Variant(s) (optional): If there are different variants of a logo (such as a prototype or an extended variation), add and describe them here. It's suggested to underline key portions of the variant being described, to make locating it easier.
 * Do not describe one-off variations here. In other words, the variant is specific to only one movie/show. These should go on a separate logo variations page.

If the logo has only one variant: Variant: There was an early version of this logo, which is slightly longer than the later version.

If the logo has multiple variants: Variants:
 * A version exists on Battle Beyond the Stars with "NEW WORLD PICTURES PRESENTS" under a shut black aperture with a faintly visible outline, then it fades to "A ROGER CORMAN PRODUCTION". In this version, we zoom into the aperture as it gains  streaks on each blade and opens up at the end.
 * A superimposed variant has the symbol on top of the text "NEW WORLD PICTURES INC PRESENTS", all of which is in white.

Technique: This is a short section. State the animation technique and/or the type of effects being used in the logo. These are some of the usage examples:
 * Analog computer/Scanimate animation/effects: This logo was animated using effects from an analog device, such as Scanimate. This animation style can be characterized by the use of trail effects, shines, panning/zooming, etc.
 * (2D/3D) CGI/computer animation/effects: This logo was made using computer software, either in 2D or 3D.
 * Live-action: This logo was produced entirely using live-action footage.
 * Motion/Camera-controlled animation: This logo was designed/animated using a computerized stop-motion camera. More often than not combined with cel animation.
 * Traditional/Cel animation: This logo was drawn traditionally using ink and/or animated frame-by-frame on cel sheets.
 * None: This logo is still, or just fades in and/or fades out.

If two or more of these techniques are combined, you can put both in this manner: "A mix of (TECHNIQUE) and (TECHNIQUE)."

Still/No animation technique example:
 * Technique: None.

Single animation technique example:
 * Technique: CGI complied at Eyeball Studios NYC, with design and animation by Benjamin Hill.

Multiple animation technique examples:
 * Technique: A mix of 2D and CGI animation.
 * Technique: Live-action model work combined with wiping effects.

Incorrect example - Not specific enough:
 * Technique: 2D animation.

Incorrect example - Describing what moves in the logo:
 * Technique: The light beams, the ripples, the glowing, the flash.

Incorrect example - Unnecessarily praising the logo's animation:
 * Technique: Nice CGI animation.

Incorrect examples - No. Just, no:
 * Technique: Everything.
 * Technique: All the animation in the logo.

Music/Sounds: Describe the music theme played, whether as a genre (e.g., rock) or as specific instruments (e.g., guitar and drums), and/or the type of sounds are being used in the logo.
 * If possible, also mention how the theme or sound is made and who made it.
 * If a specific piece of music is used, identify it and consider inserting a link to an upload of the music on YouTube, Vimeo or a similar site if available, in cases where the music and/or artist is less well-known.
 * One way you can try identifying specific pieces of music is to use the Google app's Voice Search function (specifically "Search a song") and playing the logo's audio for Google to identify.

Logo only used one music track in its lifetime: Music/Sounds: A powerful, re-orchestrated version of the previous logo's fanfare, accompanied by "a choir, new string parts, and drum cadence utilizing world percussion instruments", according to the Hollywood Reporter. Arranged by Brian Tyler, conducting the Hollywood Studio Symphony and Los Angeles Chorale, and recorded at the Barbara Streisand Scoring Stage at Sony Pictures Studios.

Logo used multiple music tracks in its lifetime: Music/Sounds: Two different versions were used:
 * A rapid synthesized warbling (which sounds like helicopter rotor blades spinning), getting louder as the logo gets closer to the screen, followed by a sub-bass 110hz sine wave hum when the logo stops spinning.
 * Sometimes, a synthesized build-up is heard, accompanied by a soft crash as the logo stops zooming.

Music/Sounds Trivia (optional): If there is some interesting trivia about the logo theme or sounds, such as who composed it, add them in this section.

Music/Sounds Trivia: The music, taken from the beginning of Franz von Suppé's "Leichte Kavallerie: Ouverture", was used at the beginning of some old Hong Kong movies.

Music/Sounds Variant(s) (optional): If there are one or more variants of the logo theme or sound, add them here. Again, underline key parts of the variant to make locating it easier.

Single variant example: Music/Sounds Variant: Oddly, on Warner Archive's Blu-ray release of The Drowning Pool, it has the second half of the 1999 fanfare playing due to a plastering error, using the 2001 prints.

Multiple variants example: Music/Sounds Variants:
 * A sped-up version of the theme exists.
 * On current prints of Babylon 5, the 1994 theme is heard; pre-1995 episodes use the closing theme of the show.
 * On The Flight Attendant, the closing theme of the show is heard.
 * The logo is silent on Lovecraft Country.

Availability: This section is important - gather all of the information about where this logo can be found. State any programs, movies, etc. the logo is found in and/or where it was last seen. Don't forget to italicize titles (or use "quotation marks" for episode names of television shows) from where the logo can be found.
 * To help determine the availability of a logo, we've provided the below scale at your disposal. Remember, you are NOT required to mention a tier from the scale in this section. Preferably, only use this scale if the rarity of a logo is notable. The scale is as follows:
 * Ultra common/Extremely common: Either this logo is found on nearly all shows/movies released from this company, or it plasters a large amount of older logos on newer prints.
 * Very common/Common: This logo is found on newer releases of shows/movies of that company, or is seen/intact on reruns, home media releases or streaming prints.
 * Uncommon: While not too common, this logo may be found on a few releases/prints of films/shows of that company.
 * Rare/Very rare: This logo isn't found too often; it only appears on a small number of releases/prints from the company.
 * Extremely rare/Ultra rare: This logo is extremely hard to come by; it only appears on old releases/prints that haven't been widely distributed.
 * Near extinction/Extinct: This logo is no longer current, and/or it has been replaced with newer logos on later prints. Likely can be found on older releases/prints.
 * Unknown: Very little information is known on which films/shows the logo has appeared.
 * Unused: This logo has not been used officially by the company.
 * Current: This logo is currently being used by the company.
 * Brand new: This logo debuted within the past few months.
 * Please note that some factors may affect if a logo is actually "rare" or not. For example. older home video logos that at first could be considered "rare" may potentially be found on many prints, if one knows where to look.
 * When describing where logos are found, include specific examples where possible.
 * Also specify if something that should have the logo doesn't for some reason.
 * Personal online uploads of logos are not credible sources. The point of Availability is to describe what primary sources the logo appeared on, such as movies or television shows. However, if the logo upload came from the company itself and/or the person/studio that created it, it is acceptable to include that in the section.
 * Don't just say "found on the company's releases at the time", name at least some of the releases the logo is known to be on.
 * Don't make predictions on any upcoming shows or films that you think new logos will appear on, as they may not even use them.
 * For similar reasons, do not attempt to predict when a logo will make its final appearance.

Single availability source example: Availability: Current. Can be seen on The Great American Tag Sale with Martha Stewart, 2022 American Rescue Dog Show, The Final Straw, Claim to Fame and Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration.

Multiple availability sources example: Availability: Common until 2020, however it continued to exist until 2022.
 * Appeared on 2007-2020 episodes of first-run syndication programs such as Live! with Kelly and Ryan, and Tamron Hall among others.
 * The long version is available on Sam Winan's website, on the television section.
 * It was featured at the end of episodes of At the Movies during the Ben Lyons/Ben Mankewicz and Michael Phillips/A.O. Scott eras.
 * Also seen on North American Wii, PS3 and PC versions of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? for the 2007 version (the DS version uses a still version instead), while the 2013 version was seen in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? 2012 Edition on the Xbox 360 (Kinect). Furthermore, the 2007 on-air print version was spotted in the North American version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Special Editions on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
 * The unused version was unused and may not be the extended version that was used.
 * Reruns of the Meredith Vieira version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? on GSN plaster the Buena Vista Television logos with this logo. As of 2020, this is the only known instance of this logo plastering over another one.
 * It doesn't appear on any other series in the Disney-ABC library, as this logo is seen only on first-run syndicated series.
 * Although the company is still in operation, this logo has been retired, with Disney Media Distribution's logo overshadowing this logo during the 2020-2021 television season.
 * This logo was retained on 2020-2022 episodes of Right This Minute, which was the final program that was still using it. Right This Minute ended on April 29, 2022, officially ending the usage of the logo.

Not recommended but an acceptable example - Having only a tier as an availability: Availability: Extinct.

Incorrect example - Uses a personal YouTube channel as a source: Availability: As one of the longest-used end tags, it's fairly easy to find on YouTube when searching for commercials between 1992 and 2004. The company's channel doesn't have a ton of uploads with it, however many Chicago-based commercial uploaders (like gtp2day) certainly do. Otherwise, it's extinct.

Incorrect example - Does not mention any specific sources: Availability: Seen on the company's commercials from the time period.

Incorrect example - Uses uninformative phrases: Availability: Don't expect to see this on Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure and Daphne & Velma, despite the co-founders for the company both being involved.

Incorrect example - Predicts when a logo will debut: Availability: Rare, due to its recent nature. Assumed to fully premiere on the 2023 Kids' Choice Awards, due to the usage of this new splat logo design being used in promotional material for it.

Incorrect example - Predicts when a logo will retire: Availability: Current as of this writing. Even though this logo may retire as the next logo comes into the scene, this will still be ultra common.

Incorrect examples - Combines tiers in an incoherent manner: Availability: Common but rare. Availability: Current but common.

Legacy (optional): Write about how the logo has affected the logo community and/or broader popular culture and how much of an impact it's left on them (i.e. if the logo is well-liked by the community, such as for the visuals, music, or it appearing on a specific program). If not that important, omit this section.
 * Do not add comments that are opinionated and are only based on your sole judgement. All statements added to Legacy need some form of community consensus.
 * Legacy is also not a place to be talking about how similar it looks or sounds to a specific logo, or how that logo was the first/last appearance of a specific element.

Correct examples:
 * Legacy: Considered a rightfully iconic logo. However, it has gained some infamy among some for its continual plastering of Disney's previous logos. Outside the logo community, it's regarded by some as a metaphor for the company's sheer size and force over the industry (for better or worse). Nonetheless, it's still a favorite of many.
 * Legacy: It's not seen as popular due to its wide prevalence on television, in part due to its plastering older logos.
 * Legacy: Considered a beautiful homage to the 1936 logo thanks to its CGI and fanfare. It has been in use for around 30 years, mirroring the longevity of the 3rd logo.

Incorrect examples - Opinionated comments:
 * Legacy: The sudden appearance of the animation can catch you off guard, but it's harmless.
 * Legacy: The end result just screams placeholder and considering its longevity, that makes sense.
 * Legacy: Everything about this logo is very cheap, particularly the animation, which wasn't that bad back then, but was still cheap back in the day.

Incorrect examples - Irrelevant trivia about the logo:
 * Legacy: The extended fanfare will be then used for the company's future logos.
 * Legacy: This logo debuted on TV before the movie logo followed suit.
 * Legacy: This marks the first use of the studio's famous mountain.

Final Note
(optional element) This can be used on defunct company pages. Here, describe the fate of the company and/or how it became defunct, whether if it merged with another company or if it filed for bankruptcy.

From 2017 onwards, HIT Entertainment programming now has the Mattel Creations logo instead of the HIT logo. However, the HIT logo is still used on DVDs and trade ads.

Chronology
(optional element) The chronology template is used for linking defunct companies to their successors (i.e. Twentieth Century Pictures & Fox Film link to 20th Century Studios), or for linking major rebrands (i.e. Magnetic Video Corporation links to 20th Century-Fox Video, and that links to CBS/Fox Video). Two examples are provided below:

Navboxes
(optional element) You can add a Navbox to the bottom of your page for easy navigation between related pages. You can add more than one Navbox if you choose, though typically an article would have a section Navbox, e.g. TV, Film, Home Entertainment and a company navbox, e.g. Sony, Disney, Comcast. For a full list of currently available Navbox templates, see Category:Navboxes. Two examples are below:

Categories
Once you've finished your page, you should add it to our category system. You can add a page to a category by adding. You can see this in action at the bottom of this page, where you will note that this page is in the "Tutorials" Category.

Alternatively, you can turn on HotCat, which can be found on the Gadgets section of your Preferences. This will enable buttons to remove, change or add categories on the category bar.


 * Logos appearing in film, including theatrical film, short film, direct-to-video film and newsreels are categorized into Category:Film logos.
 * Logos appearing in television series and films are categorized into Category:Television logos.
 * Station IDs are categorized into Category:Station IDs.
 * IDs are considered distinct from television logos; therefore they are not categorized into Category:Television logos.
 * Logos appearing in home entertainment (VHS, DVD, Blu-Ray, etc.) are categorized into Category:Home entertainment logos.
 * Direct-to-video films should have both Category:Home entertainment logos and Category:Film logos.
 * Logos used by animation studios are categorized into Category:Animation logos.
 * Logos (trailers) used by movie theaters/cinemas are categorized into Category:Cinema trailers.
 * Logos appearing in music entertainment are categorized into Category:Music entertainment logos.
 * Logos appearing online are categorized into Category:Online logos.
 * Logos appearing in educational media, including classroom films and educational videos, are categorized into Category:Education logos
 * Logos appearing in video games are categorized into Category:Video game logos.
 * Logos and trailers used by technology companies are categorized into Category:Technology logos.

After adding the section categories, be sure to add the country categories according to the company's country of origin, and if available, the company category. For example, the categories for Sony Pictures Television are as follows:

Description Tips
With that, we conclude the article elements section. However, we would like to provide some other tips to remember when writing an article:
 * When creating a new page, you can load a standard template to simplify the editing process. When creating a new page, a box will appear above the editor asking you to choose a boilerplate. Ensure that you have selected the appropriate page template, then click Load. This will load in a blank description template that you can use to build your page. We currently have boilerplates for Standard Pages and Logo Variations.
 * When writing two or more logo descriptions, make sure you add a line break in between each one so each description will have enough breathing room.
 * When listing name changes for a company, use a level two heading for each name.
 * If your page mentions a company which has its own article on this wiki, please add a link to said article by wrapping the name in square brackets- for example: 20th Century Studios produces 20th Century Studios. This allows users to browse through the wiki more effectively and helps tie our site together.

Moving Pages
If your page title has a typo in it or the subject of your page has changed their name, you may wish to move your page to a new title. To do this, simply go to the "More" menu at the top of the page and select the move button. You will be prompted to provide your changed title. If you are simply moving your page to a new namespace, click on the dropdown that says (Main) and select the namespace you want.

Once you have made the desired change, click the button to confirm your change and the page will be moved. Your original title will be preserved as a redirect, so you won't need to update any wikilinks to your page. If your move was to correct a typo in the title, please blank the resulting redirect page and mark the page for speedy deletion using. An admin will then delete your page promptly.

Creating Redirects
If the subject of your page is known by another title or an abbreviation, you might like to create a redirect so that any user who searches or links using this alternate name will easily find your page. To make one, simply create a new page with the desired alternate name and put the following on the page:

.

The markup should produce something like this:

Once you save your redirect page, any user who follows a link to this alternate title will be sent directly to your page.

If your page has Level 2 headings, you might want to use this markup to create a redirect to a certain section of a page:

.

The markup should produce something like this:

Alternatively you can use Special:CreateRedirect to make a redirect in a more user-friendly manner. This page also allows you to create multiple redirects at once.

Conclusion
We've reached the end of this comprehensive tutorial guide! We hope this has quelled a few questions regarding how to write articles on the wiki. Provided are three different demo pages containing examples of proper formatting. They are simply shorter excerpts of an AVID page, but demonstrate good examples of following the Tutorial Guide.
 * AVID:Demo 1
 * AVID:Demo 2
 * AVID:Demo 3

That's about it. Have fun!
