External links

• Link with no text (the code needed and an example):

[http://example.com/]

[1]

• Link containing text:

[http://example.com/ The guide to adding a link example.com website] 

The guide to adding a link

• After pasting your link, you would then hit the spacebar once and then write the title of the link.

"The [[Adding a link]][http://example.com/ The guide to adding a link website]". 

"The The guide to adding a link The guide to adding a link website".

Internal links

• Linking to an internal page (notice the double brackets as opposed to the single brackets in the external link examples?):

[[Introduction]]

now looks like this:

Introduction

• Links containing text different from the title page you are referencing (example: Maybe you don't want to say "Introduction" as it does not read well, but you DO want it to link to the Introduction page):

"Welcome to our Freecycle wiki page where you can learn all about why we are here. Let me [[Introduction|introduce]] myself, who we are and what we do!" 

• Your page will look like this when completed with the proper wiki lingo; the brackets AND the bar *|*. Notice this bar is NOT the capital letter *I* or lowercase *l*. The bar is normally found above the *\* bar.

"Welcome to our Freecycle wiki page where you can learn all about why we are here. Let me introduce myself, who we are and what we do!" 

• If you're really having way too much fun working on your section of the wiki, but would like wiki tools to assist, check here
