When I say “advanced,” most of the below are not much more difficult than the editing basics, but most are simply used less frequently. Some of these have more variables and offer more coding-level control of pages. Most volunteer editors will likely use little from this page, but it is here as a reference in case you encounter any issues or would like to learn more about editing MediaWiki.

==Links==
Add Wikipedia links for pertinent items. “Pertinent items” would be those things that are relevant to the article. For example, in an article on ''[[Harlot’s Ghost]]'', a mention of the Cold War would be relevant and would expand the scope of the article, while a mention of Cuba would not (necessarily). Link the first mention of these items only.
To link to Wikipedia entries, use this code: <code><nowiki>[[w:Cold War|]]</nowiki></code> would produce [[w:Cold War|Cold War]].
Also, link titles of Mailer’s works to their entries on this site: <code><nowiki>''[[Harlot’s Ghost]]''</nowiki></code> would produce ''[[Harlot’s Ghost]]''.
Find the correct titles on Project Mailer and Wikipedia by doing a search on the relevant site.
