It is easy to create links in a wiki. By clicking the edit tab, at the top of the page, you can edit the page content. Content is 'marked up' using wiki code. This allows us to quickly create dynamic content, including links.
Goal | Markup Syntax | Result |
---|---|---|
Link to another wiki page - just surround the page name by double brackets | [[pagename]] | pagename |
Link to another wiki page, but use text other than the page name - follow the page name with the text that will be seen | [[pagename|text]] | text |
Link to a category page - requires use of a colon before the category name | [[:category:name]] | category:name |
Link to another webpage | http://www.salishsea.info | http://www.salishsea.info |
Link to another page using text - surround with single brackets, and include the text after a space | [http://www.salishsea.info text] | text |
Before you link to another page outside the wiki, please consider if it is a stable link!
