Many wikis have Graph:Chart template that encapsulates the raw markup for the graphs. A mimimal example of a line chart: {{Graph:Chart|x=1,2,3,4,5|y=5,4,3,2,1}} A bar chart with dimensions, axis titles, a grid that shows values above the bars and setting of a bar color: {{Graph:Chart |width=700|height=150 |xAxisTitle=Axis X|yAxisTitle=Axis Y |type=rect |xGrid= |yGrid= |colors=#66CC66 |showValues=offset:2 |x=1,2,3,4,5|y=5,4,3,2,1}} A line chart with x-axis values of the type date and x-axis labels at an angle: {{Graph:Chart |type=line |xType=date |xAxisFormat=%b %e |xAxisAngle=-45 |x=2020/01/05,2020/01/01,2020/01/02,2020/01/03,2020/01/04|y=1,5,4,3,2}} A line chart with two data series with line colors set and a legend: {{Graph:Chart |type=line |colors=#0066cc,#cc6600 |legend=Legend |y1Title=x squared |y2Title=x ^ 3 |x=1,2,3,4,5 |y1=1,4,9,16,25 |y2=1,8,27,64,125 }} A semilog line chart, that is, one with logarithmic scale of the y-axis: {{Graph:Chart |type=line |yScaleType=log |x=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 |y=3, 7, 20, 55, 148, 403, 1097, 2981, 8103, 22026 }} A pie chart with colors, values shown in the chart and a legend showing the x values: {{Graph:Chart| |type=pie |width=150 |legend=Legend |colors=#66C, #C66, #6C6, #CC6, #C6C, #6CC |showValues= |x=Milk, Honey, Bread, Rice, Cheese |y=100, 200, 150, 300, 50 }} Links Extension:Graph/Demo, mediawiki.org Extension:Graph, mediawiki.org Template:Graph:Chart, wikipedia.org Module:Graph, mediawiki.org - documents arguments of graphing, such as type
