WikiLinks provide easy linking between pages of the wiki. To create a
WikiLink, just put the name of the page to link to in double brackets.
For example [[WikiLink]]
.
If you ever need to write something like [[WikiLink]]
without creating a
wikilink, just prefix it with a \
, like \[[WikiLink]]
.
There are some special LinkingRules that come into play when linking between SubPages.
WikiLinks are matched with page names in a case-insensitive manner, so you don't need to worry about getting the case the same, and can capitalise links at the start of a sentence, and so on.
It's also possible to write a WikiLink that uses something other than the page
name as the link text. For example [[foo_bar|SandBox]]
links to the SandBox
page, but the link will appear like this: foo bar.
To link to an anchor inside a page, you can use something like
[[WikiLink#foo]]
.
If the file linked to by a WikiLink looks like an image, it will be displayed inline on the page.
You can also put an url in a WikiLink, to link to an external page. Email addresses can also be used to generate a mailto link.
