- The bilinked referrer pages can be external or internal pages to a wiki: The main purpose of bilinks is WeavingTheWeb, creating a higher immediately available, more comfortable link navigation for the user in both directions. Although most modern WikiEngines support listing of the wiki-internal referrer pages, it is often very practical (especially for new users) to have explicit wiki-internal BiLinks. In this paragraph a new use of inline bilinks is introduced.
- BiLinks is a generalization of links between TwinPages, which ar bidirectionally linked pages with the same name, characterized by the symbol , whereas bidirectionally linked pages with (not necessarily but preferably) different names, are characterized by the symbol , which operate as "Bilinks List Introducer"s.

- HTML linking is not normally necessary in wikis, although there are some wikis, that allow HTML: e.g. wikis in the WikiFarm [SeedWiki].
