⇱ Template:Linking - Wikipedia


Jump to content
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linking to existing Wikipedia pages is done by placing doubled square brackets around the name of the page. Thus, produces Wikipedia. A useful expansion of this is done by separating what you want linked, from what you want displayed, with a pipe character ("|"), to create a "piped link". Thus: produces encyclopedia, with the displayed text linking to the article, Wikipedia. You can link to internal sections of pages in this way: Wikipedia#name of internal section of that article. By contrast, for external links: produces https://www.example.org; produces [1]; and produces example. For more information, see Help:Link and please consider taking a tour through the Wikipedia:Tutorial.
