I want to ask a question that requires me bringing up the name of an episode. How do I do that? Like for example I want to link to this episode here: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Recap/CharmedS4E1CharmedAgainPart1

How do I make it a blue link with just the episode name? I read the formatting rules and I still can't figure it out.

Just cut out the beginning of the URL and keep everything from Recap/ onwards.

You link to pages simply by using namespace / page title, so it's the same for recap.

Charmed S4E1 Charmed Again Part 1

What if I want to get rid of the "Charmed S 4 E 1" bit?

You'd have to make a Pothole, then. It's explained on Text Formatting Rules probably better than I could explain it myself.

Charmed Again Part 1

It just redirects to the link pothole itself.

That's not what I meant.

Format it like this:

[[Recap/CharmedS4E1CharmedAgainPart1 Charmed Again Part 1]] to get Charmed Again Part 1, which links to the correct page.

Thank you. Was just about to ask if you could show me an example.
