New page

A new feature introduced on [[January 27]], [[2010]] is extended '''link colors'''. Original MediaWiki displays links in red if the target page doesn't exist, and in blue otherwise. Extended link colors adds a number of other colors for other types of target page. These are summarized in the following table:

{|
!Color
!Example
!Meaning
|-
|Blue
|[[Element]]
|Link leads to an article about a concept (i.e. something non-tangible), or leads to a section or action on the current page.
|-
|Green
|[[Cirno]]
|Link leads to an article about an instance (i.e. something tangible).
|-
|Purple
|[[:Category:Lists]]
|Link leads to a page related to organization, usually a category or disambiguation page, or leads to a page in the Special namespace.
|-
|Brown
|[[User:Neko Kohaku]]
|Link leads to a user page, i.e. a Kumizonian.
|-
|Orange
|[[:Category:Awesomesauce]]
|Link leads to a page which is either uncategorized, is categorized only in orange categories, is in a category which doesn't exist, or is a non-transitive category. If an article is orange, it's probably not categorized correctly. Currently the only non-transitive categories are [[:Category:Good things]], [[:Category:Awesomeness]] and [[:Category:Awesomesauce]].
|-
|Red
|[[((LongName))]]
