So, you wanna make a link?
Greetings, IchigoKAI. Good to see more people interested in this spot. Couldn't help noticing that you need a few tips to get started. So, since the guy in charge is away, I thought I'd lend a hand.

Basic Linking
That's when you want some words in one article to give a person direct access to another article. It's the simplest one. Look at the symbol below:

[

It should be right above the ' key. It's a square bracket. Placing a word, or a series of words, in duo square brackets (example below) can give you a link there. I'll use spaces so I don't accidentally link to something useless.

Categorizing
Everything is in a category, isn't it? A category is basically one large group of related articles, such as locations in a world or people from the same game. It's a bit trickier to put something in a category, but not by much.

[ [ Category:Another Random Example ] ]

This is highly reccomended for new articles, as you can then get back to that article from the category, instead of just using the search function.

Combination Linking
This is my fancy way of saying that you want to connect to a category, without the article BEING in the category. Nefariously hard, unless you know the trick.

[ [ :Category:A Third Example ] ]

See that? A mere colon is all that blocks the way! Easy once you know it, right?

Finishing Statements
Well, as far as links go, that should do it. Some parts about making an article, like putting words in collums, are hard for even myself. But, I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.
