Thaur's five types o links in MediaWiki:


 * 1) Internal links til ither pages in the wiki
 * 2) Ootby links til ither wabsteids
 * 3) Ootby links til internal pages in the wiki
 * 4) Interwiki links til ither wabsteids registert til the wiki in advance
 * 5) Interleid links til ither wabsteids registert aes ither leid versions o the wiki

Internal links
Tae add aen internal link, enclaise the name o the page that ye want tae link til in dooble square brackets. Whan ye hain the page, ye'll see the new link pointin til yer page. Gif the page awreadie exeests it is displeyed in blue, gif it disna, in reid. Sellinks til the nou page arna transformed intil URLs bit ar displeyed in baud. (Gif ye reallie want tae link til the nou page, uise aen ancher (see ablo), or nou page, this aye links til the tap.)

The first letter o the tairget page is autæmateeclie capitalised, onless itherwise set bi the admeens, n spaces ar represented aes unnerscores (typin aen unnerscore in the link will hae ae siclike effect aes typin ae space, bit isna recommendit, aes the unnerscore will be shawn in the tex ava).

Ootby links
Tae add aen external link, enclaise the URL follaed bi space n the name o the page that ye want tae link til in single square brackets. Whan ye hain the page, ye'll see the new link pointin til yer page, wi ae triangle icon efter it tae shaw that it wis coded wi single bracket external link syntax, n thus micht lead til anither steid.

Ootby links til internal pages
Tae add ae link til ae page oan the same wiki uisin URL speirin boonds, ye micht need tae uise ootby link syntax.

Ootby link icons
Some MediaWiki installations are set up to use special icons to denote external links to specific file types or using specific protocols. None of these special icons are enabled here on MediaWiki.org, but we present them here for the sake of completeness.

Hou tae avoid autæ-links
Whan ye pit ae URL oan ae wiki page it will autæmateeclie be convertit intil aen ootby link, like this:

https://mediawiki.org

Tae avoid that effect, pit the URL atween  tags, like this:

&lt;nowiki&gt;https://mediawiki.org&lt;/nowiki&gt;

Tae get this:

https://mediawiki.org

Interwiki links
Interwiki links ar links wi the internal link maurkup til ae wabsteid registerit in advance. Fer example, ye can link til the Sunflower airticle oan http://en.wikipedia.org bi typin, this will ootcome in ae link Sunflower. This is cause  is registerit til yer wiki bi defaut wi the prefix o. (This link micht na wairk richt gif the admeen o yer wiki haes chynged the settin.) Onlike internal links, interwiki links dinna uise page exeestance detection, sae aen interwiki link will kith aes blue even gif the page disna exeest oan the remote wiki.

Siclike til internal page links, ye can cræft piped links, wi alternate link label, e.g.  is the link muckle yellae flouer n   is the link Sunflower.

Basiclie, interwiki links ar abbreeveeations fer commynlie uised langer external links. Ae fair siclike link coud be cræftit aes.

Mair details ar at n Help:Interwiki linkin. See the defaut interwiki prefixes. Tae eedit the oan yer steid, see the.

Interleid links
Gif yer wiki haes ither leid versions, ye micht fynd “interleid links” in the sidebaur, jist ablo tuilkist in the kist named “.”

Interleid links behave siclike til interwiki links, except that thay'r leeted in the sidebaur. Tae cræft aen interleid link fae ae page, jist type  whaurever ye like in the page; the leid prefix is the prefix speceefied at yer wiki fer the ither leid version (tipiclie the ISO 639-1 leid code). The interlanguage link is unilateral, it does not point back from that page in the other language. For that purpose, an equivalent back-link needs to be placed there as well. It does not work like the "Edit links" in the languages section of Wikipedia-language versions. But it can be used across all name spaces, including 'User:' to point to ones other profiles in other languages.

Gif ye want tae get the interleid link tae kith in the content o the page raither than in the sidebaur, ye can add ae colon afore the leid prefix:
 * &rarr; en:Sunflower

Whan ae link is baith interwiki n interleid, the order is Sunflower.
