Interwiki linking (linking to an article on another wikia or Wikipedia) is medium-complicated, but not that hard to learn.
Linking to Wikipedia
To link to the Wikipedia article "Trains" type;
[[Wikipedia:Trains]]
Linking to another Wikia
There are two kinds of wikia-link markup. To link to the article "Supergate" on the "Stargate" wikia, use this format;
[[Wikia:Stargate:Supergate]]
The other format, used by many older wikis, includes the 'c:' prefix, a holdover from Wikia's 'Wikicities' days. To link to the article "Shipwreck" on the "Gijoe" wikia, use this format;
[[wikia:c:gijoe:Shipwreck]]
