 You can use [[wp>interwiki_links|interwiki linking]] when linking to pages on Wikipedia or IMDB. The syntax is as follows:
-<nowiki>
+<code>
+[[wp>A Woman Redeemed]]
+</code>
+creates this link:
+[[wp>A Woman Redeemed]]
+Likewise, this syntax:
+<code>
+[[imdbtit>tt0080801]]
+</code>
+creates this link:
+[[imdbtit>tt0080801]]
+**Note:** Interwiki links are automatically configured to open in a new tab.
+===== The Pipe Trick =====
+If the link does not have a satisfactory title, you can always use a pipe to add one. For example, this syntax:
+<code>
+[[imdbtit>tt0080801 | The Gods Must Be Crazy]]
+</code>
+produces this link:
+[[imdbtit>tt0080801 | The Gods Must Be Crazy]]
+===== Italics =====
+In Dokuwiki, you can create italics using two forward slashes. Because of the nature of Dokuwiki, those slashes must go //outside// the link markup:
+<code>
+//[[imdbtit>tt0080801 | The Gods Must Be Crazy]]//
+</code>
+That codes produces this link:
+//[[imdbtit>tt0080801 | The Gods Must Be Crazy]]//
