A video tutorial about the basics of wiki markup, including creating links
Wikilinks are one of the key components of Wikipedia. A wikilink connects to another page on the encyclopaedia and ties the whole thing together.
In general, wikilinks should be added for the first occurrence of important concepts for the topic.
All Wikilinks are based on using square brackets like: [[target page]]
If you want to link to an article, but display some other text for the link, you can use a pipe | divider (⇧ Shift+\):
[[target page|display text]]
You can also link to a specific section of a page using a hash #:
[[Target page#Target section|display text]]
[[link]] displays as link[[Android (operating system)|Android]] displays as Android[[Wikipedia:Tutorial/Wikipedia_links#Categories|Categories]] displays as Categories
