Linking common terms to Wikipedia

There are a number of red links to 'common' topics, such as communist or language. Rather than fill up our NSwiki with a bunch of (probably-contested) terminology, it makes sense to link such things directly to the Wikipedia entry. The easy way is like this:

"It is a [[Wikipedia:communist|]] nation."

→ "It is a communist nation."

Or make it specific to a nation, as Constantinopolis has done.

"That Constantinopolite is a [[Communist Party of Constantinopolis|Communist|]]."

→ "That Constantinopolite is a Communist."

Take special note of the pipe ( | ) symbol before the final brackets. Add the pipe, and the word after the colon gets piped directly out. You don't see the Wikipedia or Constantinopolis reference. If you prefer, you can change the text after the pipe:

"Our national language is [[Wikipedia:Sindarin|Elvish]]."

→ "Our national language is Elvish."
