===Making interwiki links===
Here's how to make a link to the Russian translation in the [[72 virgins]] article:
# Go to the Russian site and find the URL of the page you need. In this case we need: http://ru.wikiislam.net/wiki/72_девственницы <br/>When you try to copy that URL, the output becomes encoded and cannot be used in the editor: http://ru.wikiislam.net/wiki/72_%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%B2%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%86%D1%8B
#Go to this site: '''http://www.url-encode-decode.com/'''
#*Select UTF-8 from the dropdown (8th or 9th option).
#*Paste the encoded URL, which has all the % signs in it.
#*Press the button: URL Decode.
#Now you have the decoded URL, which comes out to be: http://ru.wikiislam.net/wiki/72_девственницы . You ca copy the last portion of this URL and make a link:
#To make an automatic link to an RU page, use this on the english page: <nowiki>[[ru:72_девственницы]]</nowiki>. This will make an automatic link in the left menu under the section "In other languages".
#To make a regular link to any RU page, use: [[:ru:72_девственницы]] (notice the extra colon at the beginning). This produces: [[:ru:72_девственницы]]
