Er zijn vijf typen links in MediaWiki:
- Interne links naar andere pagina's in de wiki
- Externe links naar andere websites
- Externe links naar interne pagina's in de wiki
- Interwiki links naar andere websites behorend bij de bedoelde wiki
- Interlanguage links naar andere websites aangemeld als anderstalige versies van de wiki
- External links to pages at other websites
- External links to internal pages in the same wiki
- Interwiki links to other websites using special prefixes registered in advance
- Interlanguage links to other wikis registered as different language versions of the current wiki
Please 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.
Interne links
To create a so-called 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 in blue (like the word "create" in the first sentence of this paragraph); if the page does not exist, the link appears red (so the [[like this]]
link is actually rendered like this). Note that the colors could be different if the color scheme of the wiki has been changed from the default.
Following such a "redlink" to a missing page (whether or not it is actually red) will usually enable the user 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: [[Help:Categories|category links]]
results in the link category links.
The first letter of the link target is usually not case-sensitive (unless the wiki is configured otherwise), meaning links can be capitalized or not (so How to contribute and how to contribute are equivalent). However, the case of every subsequent letter must match the target page exactly (so How to contribute and How To Contribute are not equivalent). Spaces in the page title may be represented as underscores (so How to contribute and How_to_contribute are again equivalent), 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 that of 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/nl]]
gives the result Help:Links/nl). 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.
MediaWiki uses the pagelinks database table to keep track of internal wikilinks.

Externe links
Om een externe link toe te voegen plaats je de URL, gevolgd door een spatie en de naam van de pagina waarnaar je wil linken, in enkelvoudige rechte haken. Als je de pagina opslaat zul je een nieuwe link zien die naar je pagina verwijst met een pijltjes icoon erachter om aan te geven dat het met enkele rechte haken syntaxis is geschreven en dus kan linken naar een andere site.

External links to internal pages
To add a link to a page on the same wiki using URL query parameters, you may need to use external link syntax.
Description | You type | You get |
---|---|---|
External link to the current page's edit page | [https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Links&action=edit Edit this page] [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|action=edit}} Edit this page] See also Help:Magic_words#URL_data and External links above. |
|
External link to the current page's edit page, and styled to look like an internal link | <span class="plainlinks">[https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Links&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. |

Interwiki links
Interwiki links are internal-style links to other websites (which do not have to be wikis, despite the name).
For example, you can link to the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunflower by typing [[wikipedia:Sunflower]]
or, on this wiki, the shorter [[w:Sunflower]]
.
Both will result in a link wikipedia:Sunflower.
This works because by default MediaWiki configures wikipedia:
as an "interwiki prefix" that turns into https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ when used inside [[ ]].
(It may not work if the admin of your wiki has changed the setting.) Unlike internal links, interwiki links do not use page existence detection, so an interwiki link will appear blue even if the page does not exist on the remote wiki.
Similar to internal page links, you can create piped links, with alternate link label, e.g. [[wikipedia:Sunflower|big yellow flower]]
is the link big yellow flower and [[wikipedia:Sunflower|]]
is the link Sunflower.
Basically, interwiki links are abbreviations for commonly-used longer external links. A very similar link could be created as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunflower big yellow flower]
.
More details are at Manual:Interwiki and m:Help:Interwiki linking. Your wiki may have a Special:Interwiki page listing the interwiki prefixes it supports; here is the default interwiki list. You can edit the interwiki table on your site.
Interlanguage links
If your wiki has other language versions, you may find interlanguage links in the sidebar, just below toolbox in a section titled “in andere talen.”
In wiki markup an interlanguage link looks very much like an interwiki link, but behaves similarly to a category link in that it is rendered in a special way. While category links appear in a special list at the bottom of the page (usually), interlanguage links appear in a special list in the sidebar of the page (or elsewhere, depending on the wiki's configuration and the skin used).
The purpose of interlanguage links is to link pages on the same topics in different languages. To create an interlanguage link, type [[language prefix:page name]]
anywhere in the page (preferably at the bottom, like category links); the language prefix is the prefix specified at your wiki for the other language version (typically the ISO 639-1 language code).
The interlanguage link is unilateral, it does not point back from that page in the other language.
For that purpose, an equivalent back-link needs to be placed there as well.
It does not work like the "Edit links" in the languages section of Wikipedia-language versions.
But it can be used across all name spaces, including 'User:' to point to ones other profiles in other languages.
If you want to make the interlanguage link appear at a specific place in the content of the page rather than in the sidebar, add a colon before the language prefix:
[[:en:Sunflower]]
→ en:Sunflower
When a link is both interwiki and interlanguage, the order is wikipedia:en:Sunflower.
For more information, see m:Help:Interwiki linking#Interlanguage links.
Limits
An internal wiki link is limited by maximum page title size.
