If you enclose a word in double brackets (like {{``[[word]]``}}), you get a link, hopefully to an already existing page - if not, you just created the opportunity fo your co-authors do add the detais. If you want a text differing from the link target, you can place it after a pipe symbol {{``[[word|different text]]``}}. The same syntax can be used for external links like {{``[[http://en.wikipedia.org|English Wikipedia]]``}} for a link to the [[http://en.wikipedia.org|English Wikipedia]]. | If you enclose a word in double brackets (like {{``[[word]]``}}), you get a link, hopefully to an already existing page - if not, you just created the opportunity fo your co-authors do add the detais.

Real or "hard" redirects can only be made or edited by administrators of the wiki, and a hard redirect cannot link to a specific section of another article. Therefore, they should only be used in the case of simple misspellings or alternate spellings. The rule is that if anyone might ever want to flesh the redirect out into its own article, it should not be a hard redirect. | |||
" | For all other cases, create a "smart redirect". This is just an ordinary page with the text "See XYZ.", where XYZ is a link to the target of the smart redirect. | ||
A smart redirect should not point to another smart redirect - if you see this you should fix it by shortcutting past the second one and making the first redirect point directly to the ultimate target. | |||
(However, hard redirects can be chained with no problem, which is why they're still appropriate to use for misspellings.) | |||
