Some links don't work as expected within the same project, e.g., meta:Test on Meta itself would mean m:Meta:Test, a different page. Outside of Wikimedia sister projects only metawikipedia:Test might work for m:Test.
Links to foreign-language Wikiprojects can be made by prefixing the language code: [[:de:s:]] will link to the German-language Wikisource, [[:fr:wikt:]] to the French-language Wiktionary, etc.
Suppressing the prefix
- The Pipe trick
- Add | at the end of the link, like this: [[s:test|]], which will automatically be expanded to [[s:test|test]] on saving.
Special versions of Wikipedia
There are also two special versions of Wikipedia, nostalgia and test. Nostalgia is a static copy of Wikipedia as it was in 2001, and can be linked to by using [[nost:]]. Test is a version of Wikipedia for edit and software testing, and can be linked to by using [[testWiki:]].
Examples
| Wikitext | Results |
|---|---|
[[:en:Main Page]] [[:de:Hauptseite]]etc. |
en:Main Page de:Hauptseite etc. |
[[commons:Main Page]] |
commons:Main Page |
[[commons:category:Wikimedia]] |
commons:category:Wikimedia |
[[wikibooks:Main Page|]] |
Main Page |
[[wikt:de:Rechner]] |
wikt:de:Rechner |
[[wiktionary:de:Rechner|]] |
de:Rechner |
As demonstrated above by the double prefixes (for example [[wikt:de:Main Page]]), links may cumulate, thus enabling links that are not possible with a single prefix, for example linking a word in the English Wikipedia to a term in the German Wiktionary.
