You can use <b>HTML tags</b>, too, if you
want. Some useful ways to use HTML:
Put text in a <tt>typewriter font</tt>. The same
font is generally used for <code>computer code</code>.
<strike>Strike out</strike> or <u>underline</u>text,
or write it <span style="font-variant:small-caps">
in small caps</span>.
Superscripts and subscripts:
X<sup>2</sup>, H<sub>2</sub>O
Invisible comments to editors ( <!-- --> ) only appear while editing the page. Eg:
<!-- Note to editors: blah blah blah. -->
If you wish to make comments to the public, you should usually go on the [[talk page]], though.
