On the best technique for wiki links

Hi The-erinaceous-one. As indicated by some of your recent edits, you may not be aware of some of the best techniques in the use of wiki links.

(1) For plurals, do not write something like [[null set|null sets]]. Instead, use the following: [[null set]]s. This is explained in H:WIKILINK: Letters and other non-punctuation text immediately (i.e. without space) after the closing brackets of a wikilink becomes part of the label without changing the target. This is useful for plurals and verb forms which only add something at the end. See the examples there.

(2) Instead of [[interval (mathematics)|interval]], use the following: [[interval (mathematics)|]]. This is explained in Help:Pipe trick: When the last character of a link is the pipe character, the pipe trick will automatically generate the text that displays for that link. Its processing removes the parenthesized part of the link title,.... See the examples there. That particular syntax makes it easier to read and maintain the text for us editors.

Hope that helps. PatrickR2 (talk) 16:47, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
