Help:Links and References

There are four types of hypertext links on Habbox Wiki:

• Internal links to other pages in the same wiki (commonly called "wikilinks")
• External links to pages at other websites
• External links to internal pages in the same wiki

Note that this list does not include category links and file links, which are used to place pages into categories and display images or other media files, respectively.

Internal links

To create a internal link to a page on the same wiki (a "wikilink"), use double square brackets wiki markup, [[like this]]. When you preview or save your changes, you will see a link that can be followed to the target page. If the page exists the link is displayed blue. (like the word "create" in the first sentence of this paragraph); if the page does not exist, the link appears like this. Following such a "redlink" to a missing page will usually enable you to create the page.

To markup any arbitrary string of text (not necessarily a page title) as a link, use a "vertical bar" or "pipe" character, like this: category links results in the category links.

The first letter of the link target is usually not case-sensitive, meaning links can be capitalized or not. However, the case of every subsequent letter must match the target page exactly. Spaces in the page title may be represented as underscores, but using underscores in links will make them visible in the page text (but this can be prevented by using a "pipe").

If the page title you are linking to is the page you are editing, the result is not a hyperlink at all but simply bold text (for example, on this page the markup Help:Links and References gives the result Help:Links and References). If you're trying to create a wikilink to the current page, you probably want to link to a specific section or to an anchor within the page; see the examples below.

Name/Description	Example	Result
Internal link	[[Main Page]] [[Help:Wiki Handbook]]	Main Page Help:Wiki Handbook
Piped link	[[Help:Links and References#See also|See also]] Links to a section within the page [[Help:Wiki Handbook#Preview change|Previewing]] Link to a section on another page	See also previewing
Visible link to a category page	[[:Category:Help]] Without the leading colon the link would not be visible and the page would instead be placed into the category section, this is a very common mistake.	Category:Help
Visible link a media file	[[:File:Habbox Wiki logo.png]]	File:Habbox Wiki logo.png
Redirect a page	#REDIRECT[[Main Page]] Should be the first and only line on the page	Main Page

External links

To create an external link, usually to a page at a different website, enclose the URL followed by space and the link text in single square brackets (see examples below). When you save or preview the page, you will see a link rendered slightly differently than an internal wikilink. It will be followed by an arrow icon to show that it leads to another site.

Name/Description	Example	Result
External link with specific link text	[https://habboxwiki.com HabboxWiki]	HabboxWiki
Numbered external link	[https://habboxwiki.com]	[1]
Bare external link	https://habboxwiki.com	https://habboxwiki.com
Avoiding auto-linked URLs	https://habboxwiki.com	https://habboxwiki.com

External links to internal pages

External links to internal pages.

Name/Description	Example	Result
External link to the a page's edit page	[https://habboxwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Throne&action=edit Edit this page] <br> [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|action=edit}} Edit this page]	Edit this page
External link to the a page's edit page, and styled to look like an internal link	<span class="plainlinks">[https://habboxwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Throne&action=edit Edit this page]</span> The plainlinks class can be used in cases where you want an external link to look like an internal one, by suppressing the icon that normally appears after it.	Edit this page
