Help:Interwiki
From Image Comics Database
Interwiki links are a way to facilitate the creation of connections between different wikis. Instead of requiring that a full URL be duplicated,
Local Interwiki Links
The first kind of interwiki links are links to other editions of the Image Comics Database in other languages. Generally, on a page these links will appear at the top and the bottom of a page under the heading "Other languages:". These links can be created like this:
- [[de:Example|Example]]
(Note the use of the piped link.) These links will appear in the header and footer tables on the page.
Alternatively, you can include these links inline in an article using the following method:
- [[:de:Example|Example]]
The list of interwiki prefixes for the different language editions are as follows:
| Language | Code |
|---|---|
| German | de |
| Dutch | nl |
| French | fr |
| etc. | etc. |
(This list will be updated as new editions are created.)
External Interwiki Links
Links to websites outside of The Image Comics Database can be created in the same fashion, except that these links will always appear inline in an article. An example would be:
- [[Wikipedia:Example|Example]]
