:To make either of the above links appear simply as "Tactical officer" on the page, add | :Now, to change the appearance of a link... If you look at a roster, you'll see that the names are laid out in the spoken style, e.g. Julia Harden. However, page titles are in a formal style, e.g. Harden, Julia. If you look at the coding for the link on the roster, it would appear as <nowiki>[[Harden, Julia|Julia Harden]]</nowiki>. The vertical bar is key here; the text before it is the article title (Harden, Julia), while the text after it is what the link appears as on the page (Julia Harden). | ||
:The same principle works with interwiki links too. To make either of the above "Tactical officer" interwiki links appear simply as "Tactical officer" on the page, add the vertical bar and the relevent text after the line. e.g. <nowiki>[[ma:Tactical officer|Tactical officer]]</nowiki> appears as [[ma:Tactical officer|Tactical officer]] (notice the ma: has vanished) and links to Memory Alpha. | |||
