Links are connections from words on a page to another page, inside or outside wiki. If the link connects to another page, its text will be blue. If the link points to a page that has not been created yet, its text will be red. Links are used to add content to a page without duplication. An example would be the word Baron. There are many Barons in these pages, but to explain what a Baron is on every page would be tedious and add much unneeded content. Therefore, a page for Baron was created, where the word was defined and described. Now, a person can mention Baron on a page, and not be required to explain it, for the reader may merely click on the link to see the description.
