Deleted Redirects

I know I said I wanted redirect pages when pages are moved, however it quickly became obvious that we just can't do that. I have been removing some of the redirect pages. Please be sure to check for Red links in your articles and update the wikilinks accordingly N9RGX 09:45, 12 April 2006 (CDT)

How do I create an internal link?

How do I create an internal link? For example, I posted Training dates on the current events page. I just wanted to list the date, location, and type training. I then want to create a link to the full information contained at other locations in the wiki. How do I do that? WB9USI

To create an internal link, type the name of the document and put it into double brackets to link to ARES:
[[ARES]] will produce ARES.
If I wanted to link to a page, but I want the link to display something other than the actual page name:
[[ARES|Amateur Radio Emergency Service]] will produce Amateur Radio Emergency Service.
Separate parts using a pipe character | (vertical Line)
[[LINKED PAGE|LINK DISPLAY]]

Remember: All page names are case sensitive. When linking the page, you must type it exactly the same. If you want it different for display, you must use the pipe character and retype it the way you want it. N9RGX 10:10, 13 April 2006 (CDT)
