			==Linking to our sister wikis==
			The TFWiki community has established two other wikis to supplement our existing Transformers coverage with coverage of other distinct but closely-related Hasbro franchises. These wikis are set up similarly to those of Fandom:
			*[http://gbwiki.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page The GoBots Wiki] can be linked to using links of the form <font face="monospace"><nowiki>[[gbwiki:Transformers]]</nowiki></font> which produces a link that looks like this:<br />[[gbwiki:Transformers]]
			*[http://idwhasbro.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page The IDW Hasbro Wiki] can be linked to using links of the form <font face="monospace"><nowiki>[[idwhasbro:Jem and the Holograms (franchise)]]</nowiki></font> which produces a link that looks like this:<br />[[idwhasbro:Jem and the Holograms (franchise)]]

			<font face="monospace"><nowiki>{{gb\|Transformers}}</nowiki></font> and <font face="monospace"><nowiki>{{i\|Jem and the Holograms (franchise)\|Jem and the Holograms}}</nowiki></font> can also be used as shorter alternatives.
