Note that ''everything'' is case senstive and that the anchor is defined with double brackets {{{[[]]}}} but called with single {{{[]}}} brackets.<br> + * {{{[[Comments]]}}} --- comments box that just says "Comments"<br> + * {{{[[Comments(Leave your comments here)]]}}} --- makes a comments box, but with text other than "Comments", like at the bottom of this page.<br> + * {{{[[Date]]}}} --- current date, e.g. [[Date]] '''Note''': These macros are not really relevant on Davis Wiki. They are useful when you want to write a time relative to different timezones.<br> + * {{{[[Date(1)]]}}} --- tomorrow's date (I guess), e.g. [[Date(1)]]<br> + * {{{[[DateTime]]}}} --- current date/time: [[DateTime]]<br> + * {{{[[FootNote(This is the footnote text)]]}}} --- creates a Footnote [[FootNote(This is the footnote text)]]<br> + * {{{[[FootNote]]}}} --- lists the page's footnotes (footnotes appear at the bottom of the page if {{{[[FootNote]]}}} isn't used)<br> + * {{{[[heart]]}}} --- creates a [[heart]]<br> + * {{{[[Image(image_name.jpg, thumbnail, noborder, left/right, "Caption including ["Wiki" links]")]]}}} --- see ["Help with Images"]<br> + * {{{[[Include(pagename)]]}}} -- Includes the contents of page pagename into the current page.

See ["Photography"] for an example.<br> + * {{{[[Stats(Username)]]}}}<br> + * {{{[[stop]]}}} -- creates a box to link it to a "/Talk" page.
