As you can see the templates significantly reduce the information noise, and are easier to handle than the full URLs. This should also help avoid typos.

==Avoiding HTML, when Wiki Code exists==
The wiki very much supports HTML tags in the textareas, but since it comes with it's own set of convenient "tags", it is a good idea to prefer using the latter, if possible:

==Tips==
===How to colour text?===
Use the {{m|colour}} template to colour text, this way you can avoid having to use <tt><nowiki><font color=...>...</font></nowiki></tt> or <tt><nowiki><span style="color:...;>...</span></nowiki></tt>, e.g.
{{m|colour|blue|blah blah blah}}      ->  HTML colour name used to colour "{{colour|blue|blah blah blah}}" blue.
{{m|colour|#FF8000|oink oink oink}}  ->  HTML colour code used to colour "{{colour|#FF8000|oink oink oink}}" orange.
{{eyecatchLight|Note|"Manually" colouring text is actually *not* recommended style-wise, but if you really need to colour text the template should help.}}
{{eyecatch|Note|The template has problems colouring more than one line, i.e. several paragraphs, so be sure to double-check its usage.}}
===Use of <nowiki><br></nowiki>===
* Empty lines in the Wiki code do *not* require a <tt><nowiki><br></nowiki></tt> at the end of the previous paragraph, i.e.
blah<nowiki><br></nowiki>
more blah
is redundant, remove the <tt><nowiki><br></nowiki></tt>:
blah
more blah
