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]]. + +To link to an anchor inside a page, you can use something like +`\[[WikiLink#foo]]` + +**Note that you cannot use spaces in WikiLinks**. Replace spaces with +underscores. The presence of spaces is used to distinguish between a +[[PreprocessorDirective]] and a WikiLink. |
