=== Syntax highlighting ===

[[mw:extension:SyntaxHighlight|Syntax highlighting]] is a feature to display source code in different colors and fonts to indicate the structure to readers. Wrap the desired code between <code><<nowiki />syntaxhighlight></code> tags and input the desired programming language using the <code>lang</code> parameter in the opening tag. For example:

{{#tag: syntaxhighlight

|{{^(}}syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext"{{)^}}

[[Wiki]] markup & '''bold''' ''italic'' text

{{^(}}/syntaxhighlight{{)^}}

|lang = wikitext

}}

gives

[[Wiki]] markup & '''bold''' ''italic'' text
