Line 45:
An interwiki link is generally used to describe linking a Wikipedia article to another sister project, such as linking a word on an article to its definition on Wiktionary.
===How do I add a link to another Wikimedia project like Wiktionary?===
*[[User:Trevj|Trevj's reply:
*Use the prefix markup <tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>wikt:]]</tt>, e.g. <tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>wikt:chain]]</tt> will display as [[wikt:chain]]. To suppress display of the prefix, use the [[Help:Pipe trick|pipe character "trick"]] after the destination article name, i.e. <tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>wikt:chain|]]</tt> will display as [[wikt:chain|chain]].
**To link to a foreign language definition, use the appropriate additional prefix, e.g. <tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>wikt:fr:lier]]</tt> to give [[wikt:fr:lier]]. (Note that use of the pipe trick only suppresses ''one'' prefix, in which case a fully piped link can be used, i.e. <tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>wikt:fr:lier|lier]]</tt> to give [[wikt:fr:lier|lier]].)
**Further information about linking to other Wikimedia projects is at [[Help:Interwiki linking]].
