interwiki linking
You can easily create links to other wiki sites for which we have created inter-wiki shortcuts.
For example, the prefix <tt>:mw:</tt> in a wiki link makes it a link to the MediaWiki site rather than this glossary. A simple example of this is:

<pre>[[:mw:Help:Editing pages|Editing pages]]</pre>

which creates the link "[[:mw:Help:Editing pages|Editing pages]]". The prefix <tt>:m:</tt> will create a link to a page on the "meta" site.

Use the prefix <tt>:w:</tt> to create a link to the Wikipedia, as in

<pre>[[:w:QuarkNet|QuarkNet]]</pre>

which creates the link "[[:w:QuarkNet|QuarkNet]]"
