If I'm editing a page and want to link the the next word in the text, let's say the word 'sentance' as a link to another page in my wiki, could some one please show me a simple example of how to do that? What is the code that would be placed on the current page (the one being edited) and how would one link the word in this example "sentence" to an already existing page.

Assume you want to link the word "sentence" to a page called
"sentence" (or "Sentence").  Then you would say something like
  ... this is an example [[sentence]].
If, however, the page was called something like "Grammar#Sentences",
you would do
  ... this is an example [[Grammar#Sentences|sentence]].
Note the "pipe link" structure.

Hope this helps.
