Revision as of 21:55, 10 March 2009
Linking to a Section
So how do you link to a section of an article?
- By adding a pound sign ("#") and the section title. EG Misplaced Pages:Tutorial (Misplaced Pages links)#How to link. Niteowlneils 23:27, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
Link Formatting
Is it acceptable to use ]al, to create a link, instead of ]? I know they both perform the same... -- Huntster 03:45, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
- It is acceptable. Which one you use is a matter of personal preference. —EncMstr (talk) 17:40, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
colons?
Whats the leading colon in ] for? Everywhere I look the colons are omitted. --ChainSuck-Jimmy 18:37, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- The leading colon keeps the page from becoming part of the category and instead inserts a link to the category. —EncMstr (talk) 17:40, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
Wikidictionary links
In many articles, I have found words which I do not understand the meaning of. Is there a way of linking words from an article to Wikitionary? It seems that the closest I get can get to that is by adding wikitionary as an external link which it shouldn't be. Wikitionary and Misplaced Pages should come nder the general name of Misplaced Pages.
Please let me know the solution of this problem.
- ]
for example, if you wanted to link to the "transitive section" of "detail" you would have:
- ]
which would look like this: wiktionary:detail#Transitive_verb, or in a nicer way: detail --this is the code: ] ..208.127.20.196 23:43, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Linking to Misplaced Pages articles in other languages
Is it possible to link to an article in a Misplaced Pages in another language? Is is useful if there already exist a good article in the link target language and you don't have time to translate it to the first language. Other reasons are also possible, like the subject is more notable in certain regions.
- Yes it is. Common practice is to put such linkages at the bottom of an article's wikitext. Each entry looks like ] where xx is the ISO language code. —EncMstr (talk) 17:40, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
Categories
I find the Categories section very confusing. It doesn't explain any applicable information for beginners actually wanting to edit pages, just a vague explanation of what Categories are. Also, the English has confusing syntax.
For example: "You can also put the article in a category with others in a related topic." Put which article in a category? One you're linking to, or one you're editing? If the latter, what does this have to do with Misplaced Pages links? Does the writer of this sentence mean to say "with others of a related topic"?
I would fix these issues, but I'm honestly very confused as to what Categories are, and when to use the described code. Apollo reactor (talk) 00:54, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
