How do you put in a link to a [[category]] page ?
Putting in [[category:xxx]] causes the system to make a category entry, not link to the special page of [[category:xxx]] --Richardb 12:49, 21 Nov 2004 (UTC)

For those who are sill wondering two years later, the answer is to put a colon beforehand: [[:category:xxx]]. 192.154.65.1 13:57, 29 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Words that are central to the definition only are wikified. --Connel MacKenzie 14:32, 29 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Pointers to the official rules would be nice
