Wiki pages can be written using plain text, basic HTML, or Markdown. If you choose Markdown to write your wiki, a formatting guide is available within the wiki editing window (it is also available as a wiki here). Useful shortcuts are also available in the wiki editor tool bar, including: heading, bold, italic, strike-through, code block, subscript and superscript.

A wiki inherits its sharing settings/wiki/spaces/DOCS/pages/2024276030 from the project, folder, or file it is associated with, and it cannot have separate sharing settings. Anyone with ‘view’ permissions or greater can see the content of the wiki page. When a project, folder or file is shared with the public, the associated wiki is visible to viewers who are not logged in to Synapse.
