Revision (coding) query

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Please help me with...

I've added a reference on the H.P.Lovecraft "Books of the Chuthulu Mythos" page, adding a story collaboration with Hazel Heald that references the Book of Eibon. When I typed the book title and used " " marks (in order to italicize the work), my "code" did not convert the words to italic type on the Preview or Published page.

I left it and published it "as is", but would like my entry to be consistent with the rest of the paragraph. Please advise or adjust this for me. I shall look for your response and "Watch" the page. Thanks!

Hi Lily Luna Villon I think I understand your problem.... italics are encoded by double single quotes not double quotes.

"text" shows as "text" - just double quotes

''text'' shows as text - double single quotes for italic

'''text''' shows as text - triple single quotes for ~~italic~~ bold

'''''text''''' shows as text - so 5 for bold+italic

See Help:Cheatsheet for more basic markup help
