1. Arbitrary Page Names ¶
If you enclose a sequence of characters in square brackets and double quotes ["like this"], that makes it a page name. That can be used for specific uses of MoinMoin (like organizing a list of items, e.g. your CD collection, by their "natural" name), or if you want to create a wiki with a non-western character encoding.
2. URLs and Inline Images ¶
There are several way to insert external references[1] into the text:
- direct URL insertion; if the URL ends in an image extension (".gif", ".jpg" or ".png"), the URL is converted to an image tag.
- bracketed URLs.
- InterWiki links.
- email addresses with mailto: tag.
- put a space after the URL.
- use the SixSingleQuotes escaping.
- put the URL into double quotes.
- use the bracketed URL syntax.
In addition to the standard schemas, there are MoinMoin-specific ones: wiki:, attachment:, inline:, and drawing:. "wiki:" indicates an InterWiki link, so FrontPage and FrontPage are equivalent; you will normally prefer the shorter form, the "wiki" scheme becomes important when you use bracketed links, since there you always need a scheme. The other three schemes are related to file attachments and are explained on HelpOnActions/AttachFile.
inline: and drawing: are not supported by MoniWiki.
You can surpress WikiName linking by putting an exclamation mark (bang) before the WikiName, i.e. !WikiName WikiName. and you can force linking by putting a question mark before any word, i.e. ?Hello Hello.
MoinMoin does not support force linking feature.
For more information on the possible markup, see HelpOnEditing.
