How to link to word definitions

Wikipedia has a sister project that presents hundreds of thousands of word definitions. It's called Wiktionary. Let's say you are writing a sentence and you want to create a link to the definition of a word, the understanding of which is crucial to understanding that article. But in this hypothetical situation, you don't want to link to the Wikipedia page for that word because doing so would be overkill. So, using our Source Editor, here's how you would provide a link to the definition of "understanding" on Wiktionary:

both [[wiktionary:understanding|]] and [[wikt:understanding|]] will display like this:

understanding

and will link to the definition of the word "understanding".

Notice that the "pipe trick" (|) was used in the links above.

It's not a Wikipedia page. Please continue writing quoting reliable sources.Xx236 (talk) 11:33, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you for your comment. Please excuse my mistakes, I have just recently started contributing to wikis. What do you recommend me to read-up/educate myself on to become a better contributor? Thanks, Antmaker (talk) 12:06, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If you read Swedish translating pages to English would be a good start.Xx236 (talk) 12:30, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
