This module makes it easy to link to wikis and other websites, using a simplified
|
| 2 |
"interwiki" syntax, e.g., "[prefix:some term]" creates a hyperlink to the "some term"
|
| 3 |
article on the website specified by "prefix." It is also possible to use the "|" character
|
| 4 |
to create a "piped link," with display text that is different from the search term.
|
| 5 |
For example, "[w:public transport|public transportation]" would be translated as a
|
| 6 |
reference to the Wikipedia article on "public transport" that displays as:
|
| 7 |
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/public_transport">public transportation</a>

NOTE: The "interwiki" table used by this module has the same structure as the
|
| 20 |
interwiki table used by the MediaWiki software that powers Wikipedia and a number
|
| 21 |
of other popular wikis. The Wikipedia community also maintains a lengthy prefix
|
| 22 |
set that you can grab at:
