__NOTOC__NOTOC__'''Links''' on the IMSMA wiki can either internal, so called Wikilinks, or external links.  
==Wikilinks==
Wikilinks are links that point to other Pages on the IMSMA Wiki. Wikilinks are grey if the Page that they point to does not exist. *'''Make links only where they are relevant and helpful in the context:''' Excessive use of hyperlinks can be distracting, and may slow the reader down. Redundant links clutter the page and make future maintenance harder. *'''Link the first mentioning''': Unless the context calls for it, link only the first time a topic is mentioned rather than every time that it appears in the text.*'''Linking to sections:''' A hash sign (#) followed by the appropriate heading will lead to a relevant part of a page. *'''Check links:''' Ensure that the destination is the intended one.
==External links==Avoid using external links in the body of a page. Pages can include an '''Linking to sections:external links''' A hash sign&nbsp;(#) followed by section at the appropriate heading will lead end, pointing to further information outside IMSMA Wiki. The standard format is a relevant part of a page. For exampleprimary heading, <code><nowiki>[[Geospatial_Data#How_To_Manually_Add_a_Geospatial_Point]]</nowiki>==External links==</code> links to , followed by a particular section bulleted list of the page [[Geospatial Data]]. '''Check links:''' Ensure that the destination is the intended one.
==External links==Do not use external links in the body of a page. Pages can include an ''external links'' section at the end, pointing to further information outside IMSMA Wiki as distinct from citing sources. The standard format is a primary heading, <code>==External links==</code>, followed by a bulleted list of links.{{Policies}}
