[edit] Text linking to Images

I'd like to make caption text on Champagne Popper link to an image using "[[Image:Champagne_Popper_animation_%28Frog%29.gif|here]]" but instead of just making a link it displays the image. This could be solved using redirects or full links - but i'd rather not. Any ideas? -- Karasu (talk) 12:11, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Added to the list - add a colon before "Image". -- Brains12 \ talk 12:54, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Just fixed it - thank you! -- Karasu (talk) 12:55, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Meta vs Media?

Hey, I noticed we have a bunch of help links to help at Metawiki. I went there and was redirected for something to a page at Mediawiki, which looks like it might a better / alternative source of wiki documentation? Any thoughts? --Star Weaver 19:51, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

All the MediaWiki help stuff used to be on MetaWiki when our help files were first created. Correcting our links to the current MediaWiki links would be fine, just really time consuming since they all have to be verified. --Wyn's Talk page Wyn 20:23, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Actually, you will see that WikiMedia where those links go to is WikiMedia - Meta Wiki. --Wyn's Talk page Wyn 20:29, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
