I just set up a new interwiki link that I think will make things super-easy around here (though I shant take the credit, it was Jones' idea). From now on, when you want to build a link to the official Homestar Runner site, use

[[HR:sbemail.htm|Strong Bad Email]]

instead of

[http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail.htm Strong Bad Email]

It's that simple. User:JoeyDayJoeyDay (Talk) 15:23, 21 Mar 2005 (MST)

All links to homestarrunner.com should be changed to the new interwiki-type shortcut format, since now with MediaWiki 1.4 all external links have a rel="nofollow" attribute. For information on "nofollow", please see this Google article.User:Tom -- Tom 14:19, 3 Apr 2005 (MDT)

Actually, that was my idea when we were moving to MediaWiki :P - furrykef (Talk at me) 08:21, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I think you had a similar idea.User:Tom -- Tom 20:42, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)

That's not what I was talking about at all. I was talking about Interwiki, exactly the way Joey did it. I don't know if that discussion actually took place on this wiki or not, though. Of course, it's not important anyway. :) - furrykef (Talk at me) 12:53, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

There's another new interwiki link: Forum

Example: forum thread re: "montage" becomes forum thread re: "montage".

Again, it's just that simple. — It's dot com 23:11, 7 Aug 2005 (UTC)

I'm on it. -Polly 00:14, 8 Aug 2005 (UTC)
