==InterWiki Links - New Feature== | |||
We now have a new feature on the wiki, which allows us to link more easily to both [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikipedia] and [http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Main_Page Memory-Alpha] articles. | |||
It's quite simple. Using the "Gorn" article, as an example, here's the links you would use to link to the Gorn article on both Wikipedia and Memory-Alpha: | |||
* Wikipedia: <nowiki>[[</nowiki>'''wp'''<nowiki>:Gorn]]</nowiki> | |||
* Memory-Alpha: <nowiki>[[</nowiki>'''ma'''<nowiki>:Gorn]]</nowiki> | |||
Now, keep in mind that the link would appear as such: "You can read more about the [[ma:Gorn]] on Memory-Alpha." | |||
To remove the "ma" or "wp" prefix on the link, just mask it like you normally would, i.e.- | |||
* Wikipedia: <nowiki>[[wp:Gorn|Gorn]]</nowiki> | |||
* Memory-Alpha: <nowiki>[[ma:Gorn|Gorn]]</nowiki> | |||
Links appear in the "light blue" coloring that external links on the wiki use, BUT they DO NOT have the icon that shows they external links. | |||
