Editing Mediawiki Help

This is to help people who are not very familiar with editing on Mediawiki and is also a guide to help me remember certain things that are useful when editing.<br />
<br />
==Redirecting==
Sometimes you will need to redirect, for instance we have an article called [[Custom Firmware(CFW)]] which is the main article, but we also had [[CFW]], so we added the redirect in CFW, to make it point to Custom Firmware(CFW), if you click on either link, they should direct to the same place.<br />

Never redirect an article which contains information, only redirect an article that is completely blank.<br />
 <nowiki>#REDIRECT [[pagename]]</nowiki>  <--- The command, where it says pagename, enter the name of the page that you want to be redirected to, for instance, i went into the blank page CFW and entered
 <nowiki>#REDIRECT [[CFW]]</nowiki>, saved it then that was it set up, you can find more info [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Redirects here]


==Images==
To post images, you need to look at the left hand side of your screen, under the tools section you will see "Upload file", click on it and follow the instructions.<br>
You can also view this page for more details - https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Images

The below is an ideal example of how images should be posted if there are lots of images, such as here on [[Universal_Media_Disc#Images|Universal_Media_Disc]] , the start will look like this:<br> 
<nowiki>[[File:example.jpg|</nowiki><br>
and the end like this:<br>
<nowiki>none|500px]]<br></nowiki>

==Embedding Video==
Sometimes videos are a great way of showing something.<br />
====<nowiki><embedvideo></nowiki> - Tag Hook====
Videos can easily be embedded with the <nowiki><embedvideo></embedvideo></nowiki> tag hook.  The ID/URL goes as the input between the tags and parameters can be added as the tag arguments.

<pre><nowiki><embedvideo service="youtube">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSsYTj9kCHE</embedvideo></nowiki></pre>

Alternativly, you can also use the service id as the tag (assuming another extension isn't already using this tag).

<pre><nowiki><youtube>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSsYTj9kCHE</youtube></nowiki></pre><br />

As of version 2.x, EmbedVideo supports embedding video content from the following services:
