| Preformatted text
| <pre>
 Start each line with a space.
 Text is '''preformatted''' and
 ''markups'' '''''can''''' be done
</pre>

{{note|This way of preformatting only applies to section formatting. Character formatting markups are still effective.}}

| Preformatted text blocks
| <pre> <nowiki><nowiki>Start with a space in the first column,
(before the <nowiki>).

Then your block format will be
    maintained.
 
This is good for copying in code blocks:

def function():
    """documentation string"""

    if True:
        print True
    else:
        print False</nowiki></nowiki>
