Free Links

In wikipedia and other wikis, free links are used in wikitext markup to produce internal links between pages
In Wikipedia's markup language, you create free links by putting double square brackets around text designating the title of the page you want to link to. Thus, [[Krafties]] will be rendered as Krafties. Optionally, you can use a vertical bar (|) to customize the link title. For example, typing [[Krafties|Cute Creatures]] will produce Cute Creatures, a link that is displayed as "Cute Creatures" but in fact links to Krafties.
Some Examples of FreeLinking
Description You write What it looks like
Plain Link [[Krafties]] Krafties
Rewritten Link [[Krafties|Cute Creatures]] Cute Creatures
Category turned into a link and renamed [[:Category:Krafties|Krafties]] Krafties
Blending links [[Aviaa]]s Aviaas
Linking to a section of a page [[Combat#Player versus Player (PvP)]] Combat#Player versus Player (PvP)
Linking to a section of a page and renaming it [[Combat#Player versus Player (PvP)|PvP Battling]] PvP Battling
Automatic rewriting of Free Links
Description You write What it looks like
Automatically hide stuff in parentheses [[Fire (element)|]] Fire
Automatically hide namespace [[Template:MainPage News|]] MainPage News
Or both [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings)|]] Manual of Style
  • You can create a link to a page that doesn't exist yet, which is just fine. It will remind us that that page needs to be created at some point. It will appear in the special pages under "wanted pages"

Linking outside of Wiki

It is quite easy to create links that lead to other websites outside the wiki, using wiki markup.

  • Just write the name of the link behind the url after the space
External links
You write What it looks like
[http://krafties.com/ Krafties] Krafties
