What it looks like

What you type
|
London has public transport.
- A link to another Wiki article.
- Internally, the first letter of the target page is automatically capitalized and spaces are represented as underscores (typing an underscore in the link has the same effect as typing a space, but is not recommended).
- Thus the link above is to the URL en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_transport, which is the Wikipedia article with the name "Public transport". See also Wikipedia:Canonicalization.
|
London has [[public transport]].
|
San Francisco also has
public transportation.
- Same target, different name.
- The target ("piped") text must be placed first, then the text that will be displayed second.
|
San Francisco also has
[[public transport|
public transportation]].
|
San Francisco also has
public transportation.
Examples include buses, taxicabs,
and streetcars.
- Endings are blended into the link.
- Preferred style is to use this instead of a piped link, if possible.
- Blending can be suppressed by using <nowiki></nowiki> tags, which may be desirable in some instances. Example: a microsecond.
|
San Francisco also has
[[public transport]]ation.
Examples include [[bus]]es,
[[taxicab]]s, and [[streetcar]]s.
a [[micro]]<nowiki>second
</nowiki>
