Wikilink

• A wikilink looks like this: [[wikilink]]. They are text surrounded by two square brackets.
  • Not to be confused with an [[ECMAScript internal property]], which is also surrounded by doubel brackets :)
• Wikilinks come, wait for it, from [[wiki]]s :) But they need not be limited only to things we usually think of as wikis.
  • You could use [[wikilinks everywhere]].
  • You can think of the Agora as a sort of distributed wiki, although users in this particular kind of wiki volunteer individual contributions instead of editing common pages (for now).
• Wikilinks are the heart of this [[agora]].
  • [[wikilink]] resolves to node/wikilink in an [[agora]].
    • [[wikilink]] -> https://anagora.org/node/wikilink [[slugify]] rules are applied.
      • [[wikilinks everywhere]] -> https://anagora.org/node/wikilinks-everywhere
      [[link it as you go along]], then the link either works (because someone wrote that node/article/resource already) or you can click through and backfill it. I call this procedure link-driven writing.
    • Whenever there is more than one [[node]] with a given wikilink in an Agora (typical use case: notes kept on a certain topic by different users), the Agora will surface all of them when resolving the wikilink in question. Example: [[README]].
  • [[pull]] [[wikilinks]] [[wikilinks everywhere]]

Wikilink

Note: [[Wikilink]]s in [[Agora]] are not case-sensitive.

This Twitter Agora bot will be down again for some time today while we test and move to Tweepy 4.10, hopefully re-adding timeline support in the process (so you don’t have to explicitly mention the bot every time you use a [[wikilink]] or hashtag!).

  • @agora @agora you can also not opt in, and then the posts will be *linked* but not written to the Agora.

    And you can also not follow the bot, just mention it like this :) And, remember, before posting anything you would like to save you can go back and add at least one [[wikilink]] :)

  • @Matt_Noyes thank you for asking!

    You could call it a markdown extension — it’s a [[wikilink]], like e.g. Wikipedia or many personal knowledge management systems use them.

    It’s a link that is unresolved (for now), but can be understood to be an entity that can be looked up/talked about. Some systems call it a #topic.

I use [[wikilink]] and #hashtags a lot. I love them and I think they are great [[tools for thought]].
