=== Linked Images ===
* [[Help:Special pages|Special pages]]
By default, this system is configured to show an image and link to it's description page.  Sometimes, you want to use an image to link to a page of your choice.  There are [[mw:Help:Linked_images| many ways to make mediawiki link images]], ( and [[mw:Wikipedia:10 things you did not know about images on Wikipedia]]) but the most convenient that we settled on here is to use the [[mw:Extension:Icon|Icon extension]]
* [[Help:External searches|External searches]]
The syntax (described at [[Icons]]) is
<pre>
{{#icon: Info.png|Info|24|floatright|Special:Help}}
</pre>
Also,
<nowiki>[[Media:foo.pdf]]</nowiki> would produce a link to a pdf document, so
<nowiki>[[Media:Ejbdesignpatterns.pdf]]</nowiki> produces a link to http://freephile.com/wiki/images/6/6d/Ejbdesignpatterns.pdf
