==Page Links== Page links are important because without them, finding pages becomes too hard. Linking to other pages minimizes the total amount of information needed on one page, but also chains pages together for ease of access. Note, any time a page has spaces in the title, they must be replaced with underscores {_} The easiest method to link to another page on our wiki is to use <nowiki>[[A_page_name]]</nowiki>. For example: {| class="wikitable" | style="text-align: center;" |- ! This || Gives us this |- |<nowiki>This will direct you to the [[Engineer]] page.</nowiki> || This will direct you to the [[Engineer]] page. |} <br> But lets say you want to link to a specific header or part of the page. Instead, we add a # symbol with the header name. like this: <nowiki>[[Name_of_page#Header]]</nowiki>. An example: {| class="wikitable" | style="text-align: center;" |- ! This || Gives us this |- |<nowiki>This will direct you to the [[Engineer#Doing_your_duty]] header.</nowiki> || This will direct you to the [[Engineer#Doing_your_duty]] header. |} <br> Alternatively, you can use an <nowiki>{{anchor}}</nowiki> on your page. The [[Template:Anchor|Anchor]] is a template that creates an invisible anchor on the page for linking. All you do is type <nowiki>{{Anchor|Name_of_Anchor}}</nowiki>, and all you need to do is make a link to the anchor. See the [[Wikicode#Templates|templates]] section for more info. An example: {| class="wikitable" | style="text-align: center;" |- ! This || Gives us this |- |<nowiki>{{Anchor|donk}} This [[Wikicode#donk]] will bring you here.</nowiki> || {{Anchor|donk}} This [[Wikicode#donk]] will bring you here. |} <br> In many cases, we don't want the actual page name to be in the link we make. So now we use <nowiki>[[Name_of_page|Name_of_link]]</nowiki>. An example: {| class="wikitable" | style="text-align: center;" |- ! This || Gives us this |- |<nowiki>Doing your [[Engineer#Doing_your_duty|doody]]</nowiki> || Doing your [[Engineer#Doing_your_duty|doody]] |} <br>
