Internal Links
Internal links are links to other parts of this Wiki. These can be:
- Links to "normal" other articles and pages within the Wiki
- Links to sections/sub-sections in one's own article or own page
- Links to sections/sub-sections in other articles or pages
- Links to special pages and other pages from other namespaces
- Links to articles or pages not yet in existence
All internal links have one thing in common: they are always annotated in the form [[link content]]. In other words, two open square brackets, then the link content and finally two closing square brackets.
To generate such links, you can click the following symbol from the format bar above the edit field:
Simplest scenario
The link content in its simplest form comprises the title of another page in the Wiki. For example you create the link Sandbox with [[Sandbox]]. Because there is a page title, the link in the presentation view is colored blue and leads directly to the page with the corresponding title when clicked.
If such a linked page does not exist, the link will be colored red. For example, the link [[sandbox]] in the presentation view will therefore be displayed as sandbox (please do not create this page - thank you!). Because our Wiki is case sensitive, "Sandbox" is a different title to "sandbox".
Deviant link text
It often happens that the title of a page that is being linked does not fit linguistically with the current running text. In such cases, you can specify a different clickable link text. For example, you could create the link editing tests with [[Sandbox|editing tests]], which would lead however to the page with the title Sandbox.
To specify a deviant link text, first annotate the complete title of the page being linked, followed by a vertical bar, followed by the desired link text.
To link an article whose title indicates it is German (see Notes on Article Titles), the 'de' identifier is not transferred to the visible link text if you insert [[SIP (de)|]] (title with vertical bar), example: SIP.
Links to sections/sub-sections
Each section introduced by a == title such as == or a === title such as === automatically becomes an anchor for links. This applies both for the current page and for all other pages in the Wiki. To place a link within a page (therefore for example within one's own article) to another section or subsection, enter the notation [[#title_of_section]]. Therefore, for example, a link on this page, which is annotated in the form [[#External_links|external links]] will lead to the section external links further down on the page. To set an appropriate link to a different page, first annotate the title of the page, then the hash sign and finally the anchor name. You could therefore, for example, create the following link with [[How do I format my contents?#Tables|How do I create tables?]] den folgenden Link: How do I create tables?. This leads directly to the sub-section on tables.
The problem with links to anchors is that they cannot annotate the normal title of the section or sub-section. While the anchor name is generated from the title text, it may not for example contain any blanks. These are replaced by underscores (_). Special characters etc. are also replaced. If in doubt, open the HTML source text view in the presentation view of the page in your browser. Then search here for h2 and h3 titles. The respective anchors are defined before this.
Die Abbildung zeigt einen Ausschnitt aus dem HTML-Quelltext dieser Seite hier. Die Ankernamen sind das, was in den hier blau dargestellten Passagen steht. Kopieren Sie diese Inhalte und übernehmen Sie sie in Ihre Links zu Ankern.
Interwiki-Links
Zahlreiche Wikis verwenden die gleiche Wiki-Software wie unser Wiki: MediaWiki. Dazu gehört natürlich zuallererst das berühmte Vorbild Wikipedia. Wikipedia wird von der Wikimedia Stiftung getragen, die auch für andere Wikis verantwortlich ist, beispielsweise für Wiktionary (Wörterbuch für Wortschatz, Wortherkunft usw.), Wikinews (News) oder Wikibooks (Sammlung von Sach- und Handbüchern in Wiki-Form). Daneben verwenden aber auch viele unabhängige Anbieter die gleiche Software. Ein Beispiel ist WikiIndex (a wiki about wikis).
Um Links zu Inhalten anderer Wikis dieser Art nicht in Form langer URL-Adressen notieren zu müssen, bietet die MediaWiki-Software die Möglichkeit sogenannter Interwiki-Links an. Solche Links werden wie interne Links notiert, besitzen jedoch ein Präfix. Das Präfix gibt an, welches andere Wiki-Projekt adressiert werden soll. Rufen Sie unsere Interwiki map auf, um zu sehen, welche Präfixe in diesem Wiki aktuell erkannt werden. Wenn Sie andere Wiki-Projekte vorschlagen möchten, die wir in die Liste aufnehmen sollen, dann melden Sie die entsprechenden Projekte auf der Diskussionsseite zur Seite "Interwiki map".
Angenommen, Sie möchten einen Interwiki-Link auf das Wiki-Book XML: Managing Data Exchange setzen (der voranstehende Link hier ist ein externer Link, kein Interwiki-Link). In diesem Fall können Sie notieren:
[[wikibooks:XML: Managing Data Exchange|XML: Managing Data Exchange]].
Das erzeugt in der Präsentationsansicht folgenden Link: XML: Managing Data Exchange. Der Link erscheint also ohne das für externe Links typische Symbol. Das verwendete Präfix wikibooks finden wir in der Interwiki map. Um im obigen Beispiel das Präfix beim Linktext zu unterdrücken, notieren wir, durch Senkrechtstrich getrennt, den Titel des Wikibooks ohne das Präfix noch einmal.
Externe Links
Wenn Sie im Text eine vollständige URL-Adresse notieren, die von der Wiki-Software als solche erkannt wird, dann wird in der Präsentationsansicht automatisch ein externer Link daraus. Wenn Sie also beispielsweise notieren:
Was 'bibbern' auf Englisch heißt, erfahren Sie unter http://dict.tu-chemnitz.de/dings.cgi?lang=de&query=bibbern&dlink=self
Daraus wird in der Präsentationsansicht:
Was 'bibbern' auf Deutsch heißt, erfahren Sie unter http://dict.tu-chemnitz.de/dings.cgi?lang=de&query=bibbern&dlink=self
Um diesen Automatismus zu unterdrücken, müssen Sie die betroffene URL-Adresse in <nowiki>(URL-Adresse)</nowiki> setzen. Beispiel:
Die Startseite ist unter <nowiki>http://127.0.0.1:803/</nowiki> erreichbar
Daraus wird in der Präsentationsansicht:
Die Startseite ist unter http://127.0.0.1:803/ erreichbar
Selbstverständlich können Sie für externe Links anstelle der URL-Adresse auch eigene Linktexte notieren. Dazu setzen Sie die URL in einfache eckige Klammern und notieren dahinter, durch ein Leerzeichen getrennt, den gewünschten Linktext. Beispiel:
[http://dict.tu-chemnitz.de/dings.cgi?lang=de&query=bibbern&dlink=self 'bibbern' auf Englisch]
Das erzeugt in der Präsentationsansicht die Ausgabe: 'bibbern' auf Englisch
