Created page with "Please include as many links as possible in between the wiki articles but also to sources outside the wiki as references. There are different types of li..."

New page

Please include as many links as possible in between the wiki articles but also to sources outside the wiki as [[Help:References|references]].

There are different types of links in MediaWiki:

# '''[[Help:Links#Internal links|Internal links]]''' to other pages in the wiki
# '''External links''' to other websites

You can add both using the 🔗 (Link) button of the wiki editor.

== Internal links ==
To add an internal link, enclose the name of the page you want to link to in double square brackets. When you save the page, you'll see the new link pointing to your page. If the page exists already the link is [[Main Page|displayed in blue]]; if it does not exist [[This Page doesnotExist|it appears red]] (unless the color scheme of the wiki has been changed from the default).
Links to the current page title ("selflinks") do not result in live links but are [[{{FULLPAGENAME}}|displayed in bold]].
(If you really want to link to the current page, you probably want to link to a specific ''section'' or to an ''anchor''; see examples below.)

If you are interested to see what articles link to one page, visit [[Special:Whatlinkshere]].

== External links ==
Note that the preference for the wiki are articles related to energy and thus references to general points of information should rather be directed to sources outside the wiki.

+To add an external link, enclose the URL followed by space and the name of the page you want to link to in single square brackets. When you save the page, you'll see the new link pointing to your page, with an arrow icon after it to show that it was coded with single bracket external link syntax, and thus may lead to another site.
