[edit] Images

To include an image use the image tag

[[image:imagename|center|frame|caption]]

where the imagename should be exactly as you want it stored in the database (e.g., "Arnold_with_hat.png"). "|center" can be left out, or be "|right" or "|left". |frame|caption is optional. E.g.,

[[image:arnold_w_hat.png|right|frame|center|caption|Count Safroni with hat]]

[edit] To a section within another wiki page

Suppose your page has a section heading

A NOTE TO CHAPTER ONE OF ‘SAILOR AND BEACHCOMBER’

and you want your top page to have a link somthing like "and the first chapter", where first takes you to

"==A NOTE TO CHAPTER ONE OF ‘SAILOR AND BEACHCOMBER’=="

on the target page

You'd put

 "and the [[Michael Middleton#A NOTE TO CHAPTER ONE OF ‘SAILOR AND BEACHCOMBER’|first]]chapter"

in the top page text.
