Hi. Thanks for working on some of our {{FE7}} articles. I just want to give you a few quick tips. When linking to pages, the pipe | is only needed if you want your link to read completely differently to the title of the page you're linking to. So, something like <nowiki>[[Lyn|Lyn]]</nowiki> isn't necessary, and only increases the amount of text you're typing. <nowiki>[[Lyn]]</nowiki> works just fine: [[Lyn]]. If it's something that can be appended to the title, you also don't need to pipe it: e.g. <nowiki>[[Lyn]]dis</nowiki> will produce [[Lyn]]dis. It is needed, however, if you want the link to say something completely different: <nowiki>[[Lyn|the swordswoman from Sacae]]</nowiki> = [[Lyn|the swordswoman from Sacae]]. | |||
Another thing is that it's considered more "correct" to italicise game titles. That is, you should type ''Fire Emblem: Thracia 776'' instead of simply Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. We provide a range of templates for correctly formatting titles, such as <nowiki>{{FE7}}</nowiki>, which will give you {{FE7}}, or <nowiki>{{title}}</nowiki>, which is used as follows: <nowiki>{{title|The Binding Blade}}</nowiki>, to produce {{title|The Binding Blade}} (this one isn't needed for FE7; only use <nowiki>{{FE7}}</nowiki> for that, as it lacks an official English subtitle). | |||
Thanks again, and feel free to let me know if you have any concerns or questions. --[[User:Moydow|<span style="color: green;">Moy</span><span style="color: orange;">dow</span>]] ([[User talk:Moydow|Support]]) 16:06, 2 July 2016 (UTC) | |||

Linking to pages
Hi. Thanks for working on some of our Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade articles. I just want to give you a few quick tips. When linking to pages, the pipe | is only needed if you want your link to read completely differently to the title of the page you're linking to. So, something like [[Lyn|Lyn]] isn't necessary, and only increases the amount of text you're typing. [[Lyn]] works just fine: Lyn. If it's something that can be appended to the title, you also don't need to pipe it: e.g. [[Lyn]]dis will produce Lyndis. It is needed, however, if you want the link to say something completely different: [[Lyn|the swordswoman from Sacae]] = the swordswoman from Sacae.
Another thing is that it's considered more "correct" to italicise game titles. That is, you should type Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 instead of simply Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. We provide a range of templates for correctly formatting titles, such as {{FE7}}, which will give you Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade, or {{title}}, which is used as follows: {{title|The Binding Blade}}, to produce The Binding Blade (this one isn't needed for FE7; only use {{FE7}} for that, as it lacks an official English subtitle).
Thanks again, and feel free to let me know if you have any concerns or questions. --Moydow (Support) 16:06, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
