For the more technically inclined, Wiki markup is a simple way of formatting a wiki page it works. However, many would-be users of MediaWiki are put off by what looks to them—rightly—to be code of any sort. These users are adjusted to publishing and editing in a more visually straightforward WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) environment. The metaphor WYSIWYG is most often used, but in case of mediawiki false, you can never get exactly what you see, since what you get depends on your browser, screen resolution, fonts, your mediawiki skin and so on. WYSIWYM (What You See Is What You Mean) is more precise but rare.

There was an error working with the wiki: Code[2]

The quickest way to find information here is to look it up directly. On the left-hand side of your screen there is a Search box with two buttons under it labeled "Go" and "Search". It's possible, due to a different skin or unusual display device, that the search box will not be on the left. Just look around a bit, you'll find it. Just type something into the box, like Testatika, and press enter or click the Go button. This will take you directly to PESWiki article on Testatika. There you will most likely find answers to every question you ever had about this electrostatic machines, and quite a few you didn't. If you have any problems, the rest of this article suggests ways to solve them.
