How to use the AI Impacts Wiki

This page has tips and tricks for using this wiki. If you need additional help, you can contact Ben Weinstein-Raun.

This wiki is an instance of Dokuwiki, and most basic information about it is available as dokuwiki documentation. For example, check out the page on Formatting Syntax.

For technical information about how the wiki is hosted, see Technical Details.

LaTeX Export

We have installed the “latexport” plugin, to allow you to export the contents of a page as a latex document. You can look at the specifics on that plugin's page, but the simple way to use it is to add &do=export_latexport_tex to the end of a page's URL. This will download a zip file including a file called aaa.tex' and any required media files.

Markdown

You can use markdown instead of dokuwiki syntax by wrapping your content in <markdown>...</markdown> tags. This should also allow you to import pages from tools that can export markdown, like Google Docs.

You can see more information on using markdown, including how to create wiki-internal links, on the plugin documentation page..

MathJax

you can use mathjax by surrounding math with \( and \): \(3\uparrow\uparrow\uparrow3\). Unfortunately, this doesn't work inside markdown blocks, but it does work with LaTeX export.

Image Boxes

You can put images in boxes by placing them in [ and ]:
