A WikiName is a word that follows the LinkPattern. WikiName““s are automatically hyperlinked, except when their name is the same as the current page title.
When a question mark appears after a WikiName 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 WikiName, 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 WikiName.
- 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 WikiName 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 Wiki
Page. * Use a tilde (~) character in front of the name. E.g. <code C>WikiPage</code> will result in WikiPage. * Use the <code C><nowiki</code><code C»</code> tag. E.g. <code C><nowiki</code><code C»WikiPage</nowiki></code> will result in WikiPage. If you want to hyperlink the singular form of a WikiName that is in the plural form you have two options: * Use the C2:SixSingleQuotes sequence. E.g. <code C>WikiPages</code> will result in WikiPage''s. - Use the double quote. E.g.
WikiPage""swill result in WikiPage”“s.
A WikiName can appear in the bracketed form. For example:
[[WikiPage|my wiki page]]
would result in my wiki page which is hyperlinked to WikiPage. This way of hyperlinking to WikiPage”“s is a system option configured by the administrator of this site, so it might not work here.
