'''Linking''' Wikipedia Nordic Larp Wiki articles together is very important. These easily created links allow users to jump to information related to the article they are reading, greatly adding to WikipediaNordic Larp Wiki's usefulness.
==When to link==
Adding links to an article makes it more useful, but too many links can be distracting. To avoid [[WP:Overlink|overlinking]], you should normally create a link in an article only at the ''first occurrence'' of a word or phrase (thus, lead sections of articles often have more links than other sections). You should not link common words such as "state" and "world", even though Wikipedia Nordic Larp Wiki has articles for those words, unless these common words are central concepts to the article.

===How to link===
[[File:Boldness and links tutorial.ogv|thumb|thumbtime=1|A video tutorial about the basics of wiki markup, including creating links]]
To make a link to another Wikipedia Nordic Larp Wiki page (called a ''wiki link''), put it in double square brackets, like this:
:<code><nowiki>[[Sandbox]]</nowiki></code>
[[File:VisualEditor-link tool-search results.png|center|350px]]{{-}}
Using the linking menu or shortcut creates a dialog box that allows you to search for relevant internal links within WikipediaNordic Larp Wiki. Pressing {{key press|Enter}} or the "{{int:visualeditor-dialog-action-done}}" button causes the link to appear on the VisualEditor page.
