-right, this is your user page.
-[[User_talk:The-Architect | this is a link to your talk page]]. since it exists, it's in blue.
-[[bleblobleeblah | this is a dummy link]]. it's red because the page it links to doesn't yet exist. when you click on the red link, you'll automatically start the editing for that page.
-same principle applies to categories, except the link has the word 'category' in it.
-[[:Category:Editing:_Flashpoint | this is a link to the OFP editing category]].
-[[:Category:dummycategory | this is a link to a dummy category which doesn't exist yet]]. click it to create the category.
-to put stuff into a category, you need to put a link to the category somewhere in the page you want included - usually goes at the top. only difference is that you take out the colon before 'category' in the link. the wiki doesn't show this type of link.
-for example, there should be ***<nowiki> [[category:Operation FlashPoint: Editing]] </nowiki>*** a link between those asterisks. but there isn't.
-click 'edit' at the top of the page to see the code for these links, the bits inside the square brackets.
-you see at the bottom of this page how you have a link "Category: Editing: Flashpoint" in a box? that's what the link between the asterisks does. if you need any more pointers, [[User_talk:Bedges | click here]], click the '+' next to 'edit' and leave me a cry for help ;)
