Help:Interwiki links

Interwiki links allow for easy creation of internal links to wikis outside of Saintapedia. This feature is enabled by Extension:Interwiki .

Interwiki links available from Saintapedia

See Special:Interwiki for the most up to date list of Interwiki links are available from Saintapedia.

Interwiki links are hosted in the Interwiki table  of the Mediawiki database. Below are some examples of interwiki prefixes which are available by default.

• When using the Enhanced editor with the usage examples, you copy the entire line (including [[ and ]]) and only modify the page in which you wish to link.
• When using VisualEditor, only the text needs to be added when using the Insert link interface.
