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 [[SubPage/LinkingRules]] that come into play when +linking between [[SubPages|SubPage]]. + +Also, if the file linked to by a WikiLink looks like an image, it will +be displayed inline on the page. + +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|SandBox]] + +**Note that you cannot use spaces in WikiLinks**. Replace spaces with +underscores. |
