Help:CharInsert



What is CharInsert?
The CharInsert extension allows admins to place useful tools in MediaWiki:Edittools. See Wikipedia:MediaWiki:Edittools for an example of how this can be used to add often used text and special characters.

Try it out: edit the sandbox. Underneath the edit box, you'll see:
 * Insert: – — … ° ≈ ≠ ± − × ÷ ← → · §
 * Wiki markup: #REDIRECT

Try clicking these links to place characters or commands into the edit box.



Why isn't it working on my wiki?
If you're having problems with CharInsert, please make sure that the special characters are inside tags.



Do I need to put them to MediaWiki:Edittools?
We recommend strongly adding CharInsert tools to MediaWiki:Edittools, but you can add them to MediaWiki:Copyrightwarning or to MediaWiki:Copyrightwarning2 so that they appear directly under the editing area before "save page" and other buttons.
