Help:How do I link to another article or another website
Internal Links (Linking to a Page within this Wiki)
While editing a wiki page, put double square brackets around the text you wish to become a link. Example:
- [[Brand New Page]]
will create a new link that will function like this:
If you want to display a different phrase than the page name, you can use a pipe (|). The text before the pipe (|) is the page name. The text after the pipe is the label for that particular link. For example:
- [[Brand New Page|My Page]]
will display like this: My Page
If you want to link to a category, also put an extra colon before "Category:" too. For example:
- [[:Category:Domesday Book|Domesday Book]]
will display like this: Domesday Book
- If the term that is double bracketed exists as an article in the wiki, then the link will show in blue and be immediately functional.
- If the term that is double bracketed is not an existing page in the wiki, the link is "dangling" and shows in red. In a typical website, this might be considered a "broken" link, but in a wiki, it is simply an invitation for someone to create that needed article by clicking on the red link. Check the Wanted Pages for a list of articles that the wiki needs.
External Links (Linking to a page on another website)
While editing a wiki page, put square brackets around the URL and the description text you wish to become a link. Complex http links seem to behave better if you do not have any space between the opening bracket and http://... Example:
- [http://www.mozilla.org Mozilla Website]
will create a new link that will function like this:
