For external links, simply place the URL into the text, certain protocols (http, https, mailto) will be automatically transformed into links. For alternate text, use single brackets, start with the URL and after a space enter the title, like so <code><nowiki>[http://acid3.acidtests.org the Acid3 test]</nowiki></code> which renders to [http://acid3.acidtests.org the Acid3 test].

You may link to sections in the same page by using the section title with the prefix <code>#</code>. MediaWiki automatically converts it into a link with the correct anchor identifier. For example to link to the beginning of this section use <code><nowiki>[[#Using links]]</nowiki></code> (rendered as [[#Using links]]) or with changed text <code><nowiki>[[#Using links|top of this section]]</nowiki></code> (rendered as [[#Using links|top of this section]]).
