<p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Request for Inter-wiki linking ==<br />
; Type : MediaWiki configuration<br />
; Reason : Inter-wiki linking provides an easier way for editors to link to other wikis. For example, <nowiki>[[Wikipedia:Name]]</nowiki> would link to the "Name" article on Wikipedia. In many cases articles in Guild Wars relate in some way to real world objects or events. Linking to Wikipedia is a useful way of informing readers of this relation. While inter-wiki links could be implemented for many wikis, at present there is only consensus to implement inter-wiki linking to Wikipedia. <br />
:Linking in this manner shows the link in a more pale color than intra-wiki links. Using the pipleine "|" after the article's name removes wikipedia's name from the link. For example <nowiki>[[Wikiquote:William Shakespeare|]]</nowiki> appears as [[Wikiquote:William Shakespeare|William Shakespeare]] while links to articles in this wiki appear as: [[Guild Wars]].<br />
