How to have an internal link going to a category? i wanna make a link to the Jewelry Category, but i cant, because if i specify category, it sends the word jewelry to the categories at the bottom of the article. and if i dont specify its a category, then it links to Jewelry article, and that doesnt exist... please help. --[[User:DxAxxxTyriel|DxAxxxTyriel]] 11:08, 4 April 2009 (CEST)
===A small answer===:put a : in front of the name, inside the brackets, and it will not make that a link to the category. Add the "pipe trick" like you do with any other link.
put a : in front of the name, inside the brackets, and it will not make that a link to the category. Add the "pipe trick" like you do with any other link.Example:
Example:* <nowiki>[[:category:items|Click to see the Items Category]]</nowiki>:** [[:category:items|Click to see the Items Category]]
* <nowiki>[[:category:items|Click to see the Items Category]]</nowiki>** [[:category:items|Click to see the Items Category]] Leord and I have had "add a bunch of basic wiki tips and tricks to the help page" on our to-do list forever, but there always seems to be something more pressing. Wikipedia.org has exhaustive help pages, but they're so long that it's hard to find what you want. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Cheatsheet cheat sheet] is useful -- someday I've got to learn how to do footnotes properly. *cough* -[[User:Flux|Flux]] 12:22, 5 April 2009 (CEST)
:: Thx mate... And is it possible 2 rename articles? 2 articles need to be renamed, nothing serious, just so it they are Correctly Written... with caps in the right spots...
:::yeah, mention them here or email me or leord or you can post them in the [http://forums.diii.net/forumdisplay.php?f=127 wiki support forum].
::::It's generally helpful to make redirect pages for caps or non-caps, since the wiki search engine is so stupid about case sensitivity. I've taken to mostly doing categories and page names in lowercase, just so I don't have to try to remember which ones are caps and which are not. Also note that one word page names are not case sensitive; monsters = Monsters, since the first word in a title gets capitalized automatically by the page title. -[[User:Flux|Flux]] 12:32, 5 April 2009 (CEST) ::::: Critical hits should be Critical Hits.... agreed? ::::::I suppose so, but it's not something I'd worry about, despite beign something of a grammar nazi at times. There should be both pages, with one redirecting. Just copy the entire lowercase page, make that a redirect, and paste it into the uppercase name version, if it's important to you. -[[User:Flux|Flux]] 14:25, 5 April 2009 (CEST) ::::::: being a grammar nazi is fun ^^... anywho, its not that important + i dont understand ur explanation... by ur explanation i think i have to make a copy of the article...am i right? --[[User:DxAxxxTyriel|DxAxxxTyriel]] 15:54, 5 April 2009 (CEST)

:::::::::I suppose sowas under the impression that only admins could use the move, protect, and delete buttons? If move is open to all, then yeah, but itthat's not something I'd worry about, despite beign something of an easier way. Moving a grammar nazi at times. There should be both pages, with one redirecting. Just copy the entire lowercase page, make that automatically creates a redirect, and paste it into link from the uppercase name version, if it's important old to youthe new. -[[User:Flux|Flux]] 1423:2518, 5 April 2009 (CEST)
:: being a grammar nazi ::::::::Just saw this discussion and thought I'd chime in. The case sensitivity is unfortunate, and is fun ^^..actually an aspect of the server's operating system (Linux). anywho When I first starting messing around in here, its not Leord mentioned to be that important + i dont understand ur explanation... by ur explanation i think i have the general rule of thumb was to make a copy of capitalize the first letter and lowercase the articlerest, unless they're proper nouns. I don't know if that still stands, but I agree it's not a big deal. BTW Flux, Protect and Delete are still hidden from users, so not all is lost.am i right? =]::::::::::--[[User:DxAxxxTyrielAzymn|DxAxxxTyrielAzymn]] 1503:5401, 5 6 April 2009 (CEST)

::::I was under the impression ::::::Anyway, do NOT move around pages that only admins could use the move, protect, and delete buttons? are descriptive titles like a [[Critical hit]]. If move an article we make is open to allmade from some sort of name, like a [[Hydra Rune]], then yeahuse the capitalization. There are no problems with the server wither way, thatbut it's an a lot easier way. Moving a page automatically creates a redirect link from the old to the newmake links, and it's common wikipedia custom do name articles in this fashion. -[[User:Flux|Flux]] 23:18, 5 April 2009 (CEST=)
:::::Just saw this discussion :::::Please everyone check out the [[Help]] section. I spent lots of time writing it, and thought I'd chime it handles more or less everything you would come across in. the wiki! The case sensitivity is unfortunate, and is actually an aspect of following pages cover all the server's operating system (Linux). When I first starting messing around in hereabove questions: [[Help:Move|moving articles]], Leord mentioned to be that the general rule [[Help:Markup|making links of thumb was to capitalize the first letter any kind]] and lowercase the rest, unless they're proper nouns[[DiabloWiki:Policy|naming policies]]. I don't know if that still standsAlso, but I agree it's not a big deal. BTW as Fluxsaid, Protect and Delete are still hidden from userswe need redirects as well, so not all is lostcheck out [[Help:Redirect|redirects]] for further info. =]:::::--[[User:AzymnLeord|AzymnLeord]] 0316:0134, 6 7 April 2009 (CEST)

::: He's talking about this line: "Much digital ink has been spilled on this issue, since it was revealed at Blizzcon, in October 2008. (The first word came from an interview by Diii.net, and immediately resulted in a". It ends mid-sentence with "a", and then the next paragraph begins. --[[User:Leord|Leord]] 16:34, 7 April 2009 (CEST)
