Hi Rob,
Edit this page to see how mediawiki links work.
Here's an example of a link to an internal (this domain of beefwiki.icar.org) to a page called INTRODUCTION.  Anytime you create a new link to a page that does not exist it shows up in red (called a "red link").  If you click on it you will have the option to create it.
[[INTRODUCTION]]
Here's an example of linking to the same page, INTRODUCTION, but giving the link a different name than the wiki page's name.  Everything to the right of the vertical bar, |, will be displayed:
[[INTRODUCTION | Go here to read the Introduction]]
Those two types of links are for internal (to beefwiki.icar.org).  Here's an example to an external link.  Notice it has only one set of [] instead of two.  You don't need to use the vertical bar, |, for added text to link to for external links:
