A Wiki Name is a word that follows the Link Pattern. Wiki Names are automatically hyperlinked, except when their name is the same as the current page title.
When a question mark appears after a Wiki Name then this means the page has not been defined yet. Then you have two options:
- Click on the question mark, and you will be able to submit a definition for the page. Click on the Cancel button to get into the view mode of that page.
- Click on the hyperlinked Wiki Name, which will get you into the view mode of that page. You will then be able to:
- Click on the pagetitle to see which pages already refer to that Wiki Name.
- Click on the "Describe this page" link to submit a definition for the page.
- Choose one of the templates to start editing with.
If you don't want to see a Wiki Name hyperlinked you have several options:
- Don't smash the words together, simply put spaces between them.
- Use the C2:SixSingleQuotes sequences. E.g. Wiki'''''Page will result in WikiPage.
- Use a tilde (~) character in front of the name. E.g. ~WikiPage will result in WikiPage.
- Use the <nowiki> tag. E.g. <nowiki>WikiPage</nowiki> will result in WikiPage.
If you want to hyperlink the singular form of a Wiki Name that is in the plural form you have two options:
- Use the C2:SixSingleQuotes sequence. E.g. WikiPage''''''s will result in Wiki Pages.
- Use the double quote. E.g. WikiPage""s will result in Wiki Pages.
A Wiki Name can appear in the bracketed form. For example: [WikiPage my wiki page] would result in my wiki page which is hyperlinked to Wiki Page. This way of hyperlinking to Wiki Pages is a system option configured by the administrator of this site, so it might not work here.
