Help me!

Please help me with links that go to other language Wikipedias. On a page I posted recently, The Fellowship of American Bibliophilic Societies, there are two links in the "International Affiliates" page that are red. I looked the orgs up in wikipedia, but the first is at this page nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nederlands_Genootschap_van_Bibliofielen, and the other is at this page de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirckheimer-Gesellschaft -- the Netherlands and German Wikipedia pages respectively. How do I modify the "internal link" to reflect connection to the other-language Wikipedia properties?

In the spirit of "teach a man to fish", let me point you to Template:Interlanguage link. Using the template will show a small blue link next to the redlink. And your redlink could be a translation of the Dutch or German name. And, as long as there is no en-wiki article on the organization, it should remain a redlink. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 06:31, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi Jmcgnh. That was really helpful. Implemented. Thank you!

Signature

You don't have to sign your name on edit summaries. Your username is automatically attributed, and your name doesn't appear there. Cards84664 (talk) 22:19, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Thanks Cards84664. Note my subsequent contribution to Myron T. Herrick. I signed that. But not the subsequent link creation in the Wellington, Ohio back to the Herrick page. Is this correct? And in my own talk page -- do I sign this? Thx.

You can use the four tildes to sign your name everywhere except in the edit summaries themselves. As shown here, the tildes do not convert into your signature on edit summaries. Just on talk pages and anywhere else. The table in the View History button automatically shows your name in the table of prior edits. Cards84664 (talk) 00:50, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
