How you perform the act of formatting text depends largely on the editor you choose to use. Nevertheless, the process is largely the same the rich text editor and VisualEditor — both of which have pictographic editing tools.
Though some individual wikis have added these editing icons to source mode, formatting in source is generally quite different, requiring a knowledge of wikitext that is explained elsewhere.

- Highlight the text you wish to modify with your cursor, and then choose:

As you can see from the above images, there are many more buttons than we've mentioned. You can perform all sorts of formatting, much of which has been demonstrated on this page. Since formatting in Fandom's visual editors is largely a matter of highlighting text and pushing one of the buttons, take some time to explore the interfaces. You'll easily learn how to perform formatting much more advanced than italics and bolding.
