Link

“ This always existed conceptually, wiki-software just makes that more convenient and the open site increases that potential. My position is exemplified by my work on 'deep linking' texts, and not just footnotes or the list of references, where an author quotes another I link to an anchor in the second work and the reader can see the actual context. All we are doing is providing a link when the reader would have had to stand and go to another part of a physical library. ”

“ Each inventive step, however short and apparently unimportant, constitutes a substantial link in the chain of progress; and it is a substantial link, because it invariably contains a hint of the next sequential step. ”

“ I don't think the technological restrictions of brick and mortar libraries should bind us: just because they can't link doesn't mean that we shouldn't link. Links can provide significant value to readers, but we should be extremely cautious to ensure that the word being linked and the target of the link are in fact the same thing.Thus in principle I support linking to portals and author pages in the main namespace. ”

“ There is no reason why one couldn't build a link template for a work that didn't exist yet, or one that was under construction; but there wouldn't be much point creating one for a work that doesn't exist yet, because any links that are created in the interim would automagically get corrected when you eventually get around to creating the link template. ”

“ Link′-mō′tion, a system of pieces pivoted together, describing definite curves in the same plane or in parallel planes.—Missing link, any point or fact needed to complete a series or a chain of argument: (zool.) a conjectural form of animal life, supposed necessary to complete the chain of evolution from some simian to the human animal: (coll.) an ape, monkey, or apish-looking man. [A.S. hlence; Ice. hlekkr, Ger. gelenk, a joint.]
Link, lingk, n. a light or torch of pitch and tow.—ns. Link′boy, Link′man, a boy or man who carries such to light travellers. ”

“ URLs are everywhere. Most obviously, they appear at the top of the browser window while people are using your website, but they also appear in a myriad of other contexts: in the status bar when someone has the mouse over a link, in search results, in emails, in blogs, read over the phone, written down on napkins, listed in bibliographies, printed on business cards and t-shirts and mousepads and bumper stickers. ”

“ There exists plenty of discussion about about linking and especially in around the subject matter of moving data from Wikisource to Portal. Public view content sits in main, author and portal namespace, and annotations (this discussion) sit within a simple subset of main namespace; the other spaces are either workspace, or organisational in practice, and there is no general requirement to link to these from works, in fact the practice has been actively removed such links. Why make it more complex than it has to be? ”

“ Interwiki links These are called sitelinks on Wikidata. A data item can be connected to a page on Wikisource by going to the data item page on Wikidata and entering the Wikisource page name as a page link. A single data item can only be connected to a single page on each project and vice versa. ”

“ Two optional parameters can be used to override visible text and position on page of work anchor to change the link position on referred page to a predefined anchor author to include the name of the author of the article override_title to change the descriptive text visible for the link. ”

“ “I made it link by link, and yard by yard; I girded it on of my own free will, and of my own free will I wore it. ”

“ When to create red links Main namespace Long works may start with just a table of contents, with links to each chapter as a subpage. Red links in the table show which chapters or sections have been added and so give an approximate gauge of the degree of completion. ”

“ For example, linking lines of Shakespeare to Wikipedia articles in the body of his pays, except on an Annotated version created for that purpose. The body text of literature should, in my opinion, be largely if not entirely devoid of links. (1) When reading a work of fiction, or a play, the links are distracting to many readers. (2) Links in the body of the text can cause problems for people scrolling on a touch screen, as they will open to the target when the reader touches them and take them out of the work they are trying to read. ”

“ "But no chain is stronger than its weakest link." ”

“ In addition to numbering the paragraphs in the main flow of text with letters or numbers, all paragraphs are also consistently numbered on the margin and this is the main system of cross-referencing in this book. One of my most important goals in its proofreading is to make this cross-referencing convenient using hyperlinks, but also to preserve as much as possible the original display of this numbering. ”

“ As there must needs be a connexion, so that connexion will best answer its end and the purpose of the writer, which, whilst it leads, by a sure train of thinking, to the conclusion in view, conceals itself all the while, and leaves to the reader the satisfaction of supplying the intermediate links, and joining together, in his own mind, what is left in a seeming posture of neglect and inconnexion. ”

“ For more information, send mail to [email protected] with the following command in the TEXT of your message:
GET KIDLINK GENERAL Your personal network ——————————- Network is a word with many meanings. It can be a system set up to transport data from one computer to another. It can be an online service with many conferences, and a friendly connection between people (like in "old boys' network") . Here, we use it in the latter meaning of the word. We use our personal networks more than most of us think of. ”

“ Communication will become closer and more general. Already the earth is a network of lines and cables, linking continent to continent. Soon a speaker will have the earth for his sounding board and his hall of audience, and the privilege of addressing the human race will be prized above a coronation. ”

“ More and more newspapers and magazines have a website on which their readers can find the full text or abstracts of the latest issue, archives giving access to the previous issues, dossiers on various topics, etc. More and more library catalogs are available on-line. And most sites offer hyperlinks to other websites or documents on related subjects. In short, the Internet has become an essential tool for getting information, having access to documents and broadening our knowledge. ”

“ It is obvious that all created things are connected one to another by a linkage complete and perfect, even, for example, as are the members of the human body. Note how all the members and component parts of the human body are connected one to another. ”

“ Even members and directions which are apparently isolated are discovered to be related by significant connecting members and links, and the whole shows itself in all its parts as one and living,—therefore, also, as a life-rousing, life-nurturing, and life-developing totality. ”

“ So with Twitter, a user’s page is at:
http://twitter.com/aaronsw while their status messages get URLs like:
http://twitter.com/aaronsw/statuses/918239758 (Notes: The “statuses” bit is redundant and the number way too long.)
But things get more complicated when your nouns have more complex relationships. Take Delicious, where users post links under various tags. How should things be structured? ”

“ It is an interesting conundrum as we have many works about authors, looking for consistency, and in how many places should we be linking them. And then it needs to be considered with all other works that we have about people. I have started a conversation earlier today at WS:S#Disambiguation: merge these? and its subpart as I am stepping through maintenance, your input into that would be great. Re links, they will be fixed, and we can tighten the redirect to a specific anchor on the author page. — billinghurst sDrewth 11:48, 2 January 2017 (UTC) Thanks. ”

“ If theres a case you'd like to see here just add it. Metal.lunchbox: The biggest reason I have for keeping internal linking is that WS wants people to use these pages for research purposes. We want them to look us up for the texts they are writing papers about/collecting for a presentation/etc., and if we keep with internal links, the person doing the research can actually read the source texts that are referenced in a work they are reading and can get a better understanding of the actual source text without having to rely on just a summary statement of the work. ”

“ BD Jackson page the links look fairly inconsistent, no offence Eclecticology, nothing inherently wrong with linking some to WS author pages & some to WP & some as redlinks but as time goes by and we get more authorpages and less redlinks (on WP as well as WS) it'll seem increasingly inconsistent and confusing & may need, at some point in the future, to be edited to ensure a consistent form of linking. ”

“ Interlinking Billinghurst, I noted on another talk page where you mentioned that your use of linking was questioned by another user, and I was wondering if you could point me to such an example... I too am "interested in the biographical detail [and] interlinking of works and people" and have used linking as well on WS when transcribing works by Mrs. ”

“ Since most of our transactions and communications in the Project are digital—through email, websites, voice-over Internet Protocol, and file share applications—“only connect” reflects our fast changing world and new work practices. Second, and perhaps more profoundly, “only connect” is what we hope to achieve when we share recordings of oral literature in print, on air and online. Connectivity is all: our project would not exist without the technical underpinnings and the philosophical imperative to see information and knowledge shared. ”

“ When I picture Saxon to myself it is usually of that moment that I think, when the red glow beat upon his hard, eager, hawk-like face, and showed up the thousand little seams and wrinkles which time and care had imprinted upon his brown, weather-beaten skin. Sometimes in my dreams that face in the darkness comes back to me, and his half-closed eyelids and shifting, blinky eyes are turned towards me in his sidelong fashion, until I find myself sitting up and holding out my hand into empty space, half expecting to feel another thin sinewy hand close round it. ”

“ From side to side stretched the thin line of the English, lightly armed and quick-footed, while against it stormed and raged the pressing throng of fiery Spaniards and of gallant Bretons. The clink of crossing sword-blades, the dull thudding of heavy blows, the panting and gasping of weary and wounded men, all rose together in a wild, long-drawn note, which swelled upwards to the ears of the wondering peasants who looked down from the edges of the cliffs upon the swaying turmoil of the battle beneath them. ”

“ By an objective connexion, I mean such a connexion as there is between the bucket in the well and the hand that draws it up,—when the hand stops, the bucket stops too; or between a man and his shadow,—when the man moves, the shadow moves too ”

“ I say not, being unaware that I have learned my readers a bad habit in looking for some ingenious connexion where none as yet exists—just as if I were a weaver of a cunning web, where the red thread is taken up where it suits me. ”

“ I have a thought about a wire which shall reach round the earth and oversea and undersea, on which a man may send a message. And a thought I have about a wire which shall stretch across the land, and upon that wire a voice may travel alone. ”

“ A net-work, compared with which that of the finest lace ever worn by the fair reader would seem a net-work of cable, has preserved entire, for untold ages, the most delicate peculiarities of its pattern. ”

“ Most marvellously their beings found each other in the great whispering galleries of the world where Thought and Yearning know that first fulfilment which is the source of action later....
'So, now that I have found you,' her voice presently went on, 'our Network shall catch everybody everywhere. For the Pattern of my story, woven so long ago, has passed through you as through a channel—to another who can give it forth. It will spread across every sky. ”

“ The Internet shapes the choices of the new generation in terms of what they want to know, how, when, and for what purpose more than newspapers, books, and magazines, and even more than radio or television does. And even more than schools and colleges do. Through its vast and expanding means and offerings, the Internet connects the individual to the globe, instead of only talking about globality. Networking, at many levels and in many ways, is related to the characteristics of our pragmatic framework. ”

“ This would seem to be one of the real promise of the Gateway Experience from the standpoint of its ability to provide a portal through which, based on months if not years of practice, the individual may pass in his search to find self, personal effectuality, and truth in the larger sense. ”

“ Trying to wander in an independent or a disconnected way among the other threads, it would make of the whole web an inextricable snarl. Yet each little thread must be as firmly spun as if it were the only one, or the result would be a worthless fabric. ”

“ These study tours include visits to outstanding companies, start-up, research centers and universities, with the aim of exploring new developments in information technology such as the internet, multimedia and telecommunications. Participants have the opportunity to learn about state-of-the-art research and development, strategies and business ventures through presentations and discussions, product demonstrations and site tours.
