I, FireFox, hereby award you The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar for all your reverts and efforts in chasing after vandals!
The GO-PCHS-NJROTC Abuse Report and Antivandal Barnstar For reverting vandalism to Port Charlotte High School!

I started editing the wikipedia 18 January, 2005 with off-color humor though I am not credited as I didn't have an account at that time. Looking at my vanity list, you will see that I am drawn to articles concerning natural sciences and linguistics.

Number of times my user page has been vandalized: >10

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.
