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]]".
Note that there are some special [[SubPage/LinkingRules]] that come into
play when linking between [[SubPage]]s.
WikiLinks can be entered in any case you like, the page they link to is
always lowercased.
While a WikiLink is limited to alphanumerics and only a few special
charaters, it is possible to create page names containing other characters:
- To display a page name with a space in it, use "_" in the WikiLink, for
example, "[[Multi_Word_Page_Name]]".
- For any other special character, you can use "__nnnn__" where
nnnn is the unicode character number. For example,
"[[This_page_name_is__44___uselessly__44___a_complete_sentence__46__]]"
Limiting use of this to when you really need it is a good idea.
Note that if the file linked to by a WikiLink looks like an image, it will
be displayed inline on the page.
It's also possible to write a WikiLink that uses something other than the
page name as the link text. For example "[[foo|SandBox]]" links to the
SandBox page, but the link will appear like this: [[foo|SandBox]]
