Third Icon is Internal Link: This icon is represented by an Ab underlined and colored blue. This Icon allows you to place a link to other wiki pages inside the page your editing. So if there were a wikipage titled "hammer", and I went to another wiki page that had the word hammer somewhere in its text and I highlighted it and clicked Internal Link, that word would become a link to the "hammer" wiki page. This might sound confusing, but here is what it looks like: [[hammer]]. To add an Internal Link, just highlight the text you want (make sure there is a wiki page has the word as its title.) hit the icon. If there is not a page that matches the word, the word will appear red instead of blue, and when clicked it will say there is no page with that title. The Internal Link is not case sensitive. It is a good Idea to add Internal Links to wiki pages to make it easier for people to find stuff in the wiki.

Fourth Icon is External Link: This icon is represented by a globe with a page in the lower corner. This Icon allows you to add external links, or links to pages or websites outside the wiki. To make an external link, first click the icon, then put the full name of the website or page your linking to in between the two brackets. Then, while still inside the brackets, put a space and then type what word you want to represent the link. For example, If I were to put the the URL of gametechmods in between the two brackets, then put a space and type [https://gametechmods.com GTM], the word GTM will be blue, and when clicked on will take you to the Gametechmods website. If you dont put any word after the URL, the link will just be labeled "1". You can tell an External Link from an Internal Link because there will be a little square next to the word with an arrow coming out of it.

Seventh Icon is Media File Link: This icon is represented by a trumpet. This icon allows you to put media or video fileonto a wiki page. I have limited knowledge on using videos on the wiki, so I would prefer if someone who knew more about it to explain. I do know though that first you must upload you video on the wiki, copy its filename, press the icon, and replace "Example.ogg" with you videos filename.

I hope this has helped you better understand the wiki. All of the editing tools may seem confusing when explained, but if you try them out and experiment I pomise you you will catch on quick. Hope to see your contributions to the wiki.
