 Pages are edited as plain text with special syntax for formatting, and then converted to pretty website by the DokuWiki engine once saved.
+If you'd like, you can experiment with assorted syntax on the [[playground:playground]] page.

 The Move plugin can rename a page and update references linking to it. See [[https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:move|the user manual]].
+Go to a page, then mouse over the edit page button. In the drop-down menu that appears, select the rename pages tool to rename the page.
+==== Namespaces ====
+Pages can be made in "namespaces", which are just like folders. These appear in the sitemap, and can help organize pages into categories. For example, the [[about:onboarding|onboarding]] page is in the "about" namespace.
+However, most pages are not in a namespace because they don't help organize a sufficiently big wiki, as some pages might reasonably belong in more than one namespace. This also makes page URLs simpler.
