Help:Interwiki linking

From RayWiki, the Rayman wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Interwiki links are the links to the other versions of RayWiki that appear on the bottom left corner of a page.

RayWiki is available in many languages. Therefore, to facilitate navigation, it is important that all pages be linked to their counterparts in foreign languages.

Interwiki links should be added at the end of the article source code, just before categories. See the following example:

==External Links==
[http://rayman-mobile.ubi.com/fiesta-run/en-GB/home/ Official page]
 
<nowiki>{{Handheld Rayman games}}
 
[[fr:Rayman Fiesta Run]]
[[de:Rayman Fiesta Run]]
 
[[Category:2D platform games]]
[[Category:Rayman games]]
[[Category:Articles requiring expansion]]

As illustrated above, the syntax for interwiki links is the following: [[language code:Title in foreign language]]

The list of language codes is as follows:

fr French
en English
de German
hu Hungarian
it Italian
pl Polish
es Spanish

In order to facilitate the maintenance of interwiki links, please always add them in the exact same order as the table above.

Finally, when adding an interwiki link to an article, always add the back links in the articles you have linked to. For example, if you have just created an article with an interwiki link to the French wiki, please also edit the French article to link to the one you've just created.
