Links are texts that are covered in color, unlike regular text. When you click on a link, it directs you to another page. The following is a tutorial on how to create links.
Internal links
Internal links lead to other pages on Fanon Wiki. For example, Main Page is a link to this wiki's main page, and is created with [[Main Page]]. Place two square brackets around a page name to turn it into a link.
To create an internal link with a description other than the page's name, include the link name after the page title after a pipe. eg. [[Main Page|Go to the main page]]
| Example | Result |
|---|---|
[[Main Page|Go to the main page]]
|
Go to the main page |
To create an internal link that directs to a page's section, first, include the page name, second, add a hashtag after the link name, and lastly, type in the section title of the page.
| Example | Result |
|---|---|
[[Fanon Wiki:About#History]]
|
Fanon Wiki:About#History |
Interwiki links
Interwiki links lead to pages on other wikis, such as Pikipedia or Wikipedia. To link to one of these pages, place an interwiki prefix before the page title. A list of allowed interwiki prefixes can be seen at Special:Interwiki.
Like normal links, interwiki links can be created by placing 2 square brackets on both sides of the text. Interwiki prefixes are a word followed by a colon, similar to namespaces.

External links
External links lead to anywhere else. They can either be created by placing a URL directly in a page's text, or by placing a URL followed by a title surrounded by single square brackets.
