__NOTOC__


'''''Battlestar Wiki''''' has '''related sites''' for non-encyclopedic content. Linking to these sites can be done easily by using interwiki links. For example, you can link to the "Dog" article on [[w:|Wikipedia]] using:
'''''Battlestar Wiki''''' has '''related sites''' for non-encyclopedic content.
:<tt><nowiki>[[w:Dog]]</nowiki></tt>
In this case, <code>w:</code> is the ''interwiki prefix'' associated with Wikipedia. A list of all interwiki prefixes can be found [[BW:INTER|here]].


When using interlanguage links, beware of the difference between:
== Related sites ==
:<tt><nowiki>[[de:Hauptseite]]</nowiki></tt>
{{mainarticle|Battlestar Wiki:Interwiki}}
:*Means the German version of this article can be found at [[:de:Hauptseite]]
''Battlestar Wiki'' is for prose articles about subjects considered [[Wikipedia:encyclopedia|encyclopedic]] (along with some topics that would typically be found in an [[Wikipedia:almanac|almanac]]), as well as content that could be considered [http://www.midwinter.com/lurk/lurker.html Lurker's Guide-like] or words that you could find in a [[Wikipedia:dictionary|dictionary]].
:*Link does not appear in the article text, but in the "In other languages" section of the sidebar


:<tt><nowiki>[[:de:Hauptseite]]</nowiki></tt>
Any article that simply defines a word, or short phrase, as you would find in a typical [[Wikipedia:dictionary|dictionary]], and that isn't considered a ''Battlestar'' unique word or phrase (such as [[Red Line]], [[Volton (TOS)]], or [[Frak]]) and cannot be expanded into an encyclopedic entry.
:*Produces a link to [[:de:Hauptseite]] in the article text


These types of links still support piping as shown in the previous tutorial page.
