* Using an internal link is always good, so, as an example, instead of defining an acronym like this "ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers)", just use "<nowiki>[[ICANN]]</nowiki>" and then we'll define [[ICANN]] on that page. | * Using an internal link is always good, so, as an example, instead of defining an acronym like this "ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers)", just use "<nowiki>[[ICANN]]</nowiki>" and then we'll define [[ICANN]] on that page. | ||
Another important note on linking is the ability to create a link for a term that is different from the destination page, that is, you can say "Internet Corporation of Assigned Names and Numbers" but still link to the ICANN page. The formatting for this is: | |||
<nowiki>[[ICANN|Internet Corporation of Assigned Names and Numbers]]</nowiki> | |||
This allows you to switch between the acronym and proper title of an organization, or between different titles a person may hold, while still linking to a consistent page. | |||
