For example, you can create a page titled ''homework 2 (XYZ123Spring2009)'' by creating a link to ''homework 2 (XYZ123Spring 2009)'' within the XYZ 123 Spring 2009 course page, and subsequently clicking on the link. When the page does not exists, the link is displayed in red. Once you edit the page you newly created, the link will become blue. To add a link to ''homework 2 (XYZ123Spring 2009)'', use the syntaxe <nowiki>[[homework 2 (XYZ123Spring 2009)]]</nowiki>. To edit this page, simply click on the link after saving the page.
