How to: Wikilink the Executives

You may wonder how you can make your page a little more dynamic, which would include placing the directors of the company in their appropriate category.

Your Director/Executive section may look like this

== Executives ==
===Chief Executive Officer==
John ‘Bigdog’ Doe has served as CEO for about 28 seconds ….

That would suffice.

What if you wanted to take it to the next level. You can make it when people click on the Chief Executive Officer it would take you to a page where the title would be explained. For example one of the companies I was working on had a Chief Scientific Officer. Well most of us would kind of understand what that meant, but heck its wiki lets explain it.
So let’s promote Jane to the new position.

== Executives ==
===Chief Executive Officer==

John ‘Bigdog’ Doe has served as CEO for about 28 seconds ….

===Chief Scientific Officer===

Jane ‘Knowitall’ Doe – I sense a bit of nepotism, but oh well

Like before that would work. However, by changing it slightly we can add some dynamic to the page.

== Executives ==

===[[Chief Executive Officer]]==
[[John ‘Bigdog’ Doe]] has served as CEO for about 28 seconds ….

===[[Chief Scientific Officer]]===
[[Jane ‘Knowitall’ Doe]] – I sense a bit of nepotism, but oh well

Cool, we done it. We created links.. but hey those links go to a page which isn’t formatted. Well the Chief Executive does, but the other ones don’t. That’s easy to explain, someone has already created and edited the page for the position of “Chief Executive Officer”. You will need to explain and apply a category for “Chief Scientific Officer”


Your link will be red and when you click on it, it will take you to a “Editing Chief Scientific Officer”

There you add the following lines

Responsible for leading the scientific portion of a company.
[[Category:Corporate Terminology]]

You can also add the personnel to their position by clicking on their name which should be red and adding a line like

[[Chief Scientific Officer]] [[OTCBB:ELTP]]

So now when someone clicks on the Chief part it takes them to the explanation and the other part I added would take them back to the ELTP wiki.

For a working example: go to
http://wiki.advfn.com/en/Elite_Pharmaceuticals#Chief_Scientific_Officer

Then click on either the chief part or
Ashok Nigalye, Ph.D.
