Link to Minnesota wiki

From Minnewiki

While you're adding or editing pages in the Minnewiki, you'll want to link to other pages that have information relating to or supporting the subject you're covering.

Using the editing bar and brackets

Within the Minnewiki, you can use the http://minnewiki.publicradio.org/skins/common/images/button_link.png Internal link button above the edit box.

Click on it and [[Link title]] will appear. Simply grab the article title right out of the url in the address bar. For instance, if you wanted to link to the help page you'd take the title out of the url
( http://minnewiki.publicradio.org/index.php/Help:Contents ) and place it between the brackets. It looks like this in the editing box:

[[Help:Contents]]

and acts like this in the published page: Help:Contents

You can also give an internal Minnewiki link a better title. Follow the same format: take the title out of the url
( http://minnewiki.publicradio.org/index.php/Help:Contents ) and place it between the brackets, add a | and the new link language. It looks like this in the editing box:

[[Help:Contents|Minnewiki help page]]

and acts like this in the published page: Minnewiki help page

When to link

Link to pages that refer to each other. If an artist is documented as performing in a venue, or if a musician is part of a band (such as Paul Westerberg and The Replacements) they should be linked. Check your published page to be sure that you've linked to the right article title, or it will point people to a page that asks a user to create the page. Too many links without context makes a page less informative as it is difficult to read.
