Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Some formatting questions (startrek.website)

So, I have some questions about formatting on this site:

  1. How can I make "sub-lists". Kinda like a "1a,1b,1c". For instance, an Idea I have involves pros and cons. I want to make a list of that idea, with a sub-list of "pro" and "con", and bellow them a sub-list of the different pro's and cons
  2. Can you make tables (I can't figure out if you can from what's on the "format help" page, I found it confusing)
  3. what is the "URL" field at the top of this post for?
  4. How do I make "minor separations", where you have multiple paragraphs, then a paragraph with more white-space between it, but not like a header or a line. It's related enough that I want it connect, but separate enough that I want some separation
  5. How can I make Paragraphs have indents? (I know they aren't needed grammatically anymore, but in some cases, a paragraph just doesn't seem "right" without an indent...

I do have some more questions, but I forgot them right now...

Thanks in advance!

This is probably too late to be useful, but what's on markdownguide.org works:

  1. First item
  2. Second item
  3. Third item
    • Indented item
    • Indented item
  4. Fourth item

Or

  1. First item
  2. Second item
  3. Third item
    1. Indented item
    2. Indented item
  4. Fourth item

It's not 1a, but it is how you do sublists.
