== # Local Wiki Pages ==

----

=== #* WikiWord""s ===

=== # WikiWord""s ===

Typical wiki pages are named by removing the spaces between two or more words and starting each word with a capital letter. Just using such a WikiWord links to the page if it exists, otherwise it will be displayed with a question mark link, like SampleUndefinedPage. The question mark indicates the page doesn't exist yet and is a link to create it.

----

=== #* Freelinks ===

=== # Freelinks ===

Links to pages that are not a WikiWord are done by surrounding the text with two pairs of square brackets like <no>[[Sample Free Link]]</no>.

----

=== #* Local: ===

The '''Local:''' prefix is another way to link within the wiki, and may be required for links to subpages of parent pages that are not WikiWord""s. For example: <tt><no>Local:Help/Macros</no></tt> = Local:Help/Macros

----

=== #* Subpages ===

The Local: prefix is another way to link within the wiki, and may be required for links to subpages of parent pages that are not WikiWord""s. For example: <tt><no>Local:Help/Macros</no></tt> = Local:Help/Macros

=== # Subpages ===

See /Subpages

----

=== #* Plurals ===

=== # Plurals ===

You can separate a WikiWord from adjacent text with the special "" (two double-quotes) delimiter. The "" delimiter is <i>not</i> displayed--it is useful for plural forms of page links like WikiWord""s. In nearly all cases trailing punctuation is ignored, so you can safely make links like http://deoxy.org/, without the trailing comma being part of the link. You can also use <tt><no>[[freelink]]s</no></tt>.

=== # URLs Using Anchors ===

*<tt><nowiki>[#anchor Anchored Link]</nowiki></tt> = [http:#anchor Anchored Link]

*To set an anchor:

** [#anchor]<tt><nowiki>[#anchor]</nowiki></tt>

----

=== #* Relative URLs ===

=== # Relative URLs ===

To make on-site links you must respecify the protocol e.g.:

* <tt><nowiki>[http:/some.gif like this local link]</nowiki></tt> = [http:/some.gif like this local link]

* <tt><nowiki>[http:../some.gif this relative link]</nowiki></tt> = [http:../some.gif this relative link]

* <tt><nowiki>[http:#anchor anchor on this page]</nowiki></tt> = [http:#anchor anchor on this page]

== # Images ==

----

Images can be embedded by entering the full URL:

*<tt><nowiki>http://deoxy.org/gif/ooleft_left.gif</nowiki></tt>

Use brackets for a footnote link to the image's URL:

*<tt><nowiki>[http://deoxy.org/gif/ipx_sph2.jpg]</nowiki></tt> = [http://deoxy.org/gif/ipx_sph2.jpg]

Make an image into a link like this:

*<tt><nowiki>[http://deoxy.org http://deoxy.org/gif/ooleft_left.gif]</nowiki></tt>

Align image left or right (with optional padding, in pixels):

*<tt><nowiki>http://deoxy.org/gif/ooleft_left.gif|left12</nowiki></tt>,,

*<tt><nowiki>http://deoxy.org/gif/ooleft_left.gif|right22</nowiki></tt>,,

For more control with images use [Local:action=version#html HTML].

== # InterWiki Links ==

----

InterWiki links are shortcuts that allow rapid linking to certain pre-defined sites:

*<tt><nowiki>Deoxy:chatter</nowiki></tt> = Deoxy:chatter
