=Back to Top= 7. Add a Back to Top link Back to Top

 * BracketBracketPageName|Back to TopBracketBracket
 * it will look like the following WITHOUT the space between the brackets

=Hyperlinks= 8. Graphic-less hyperlinks to uploaded files
 * if you want to hyperlink to a document with having the Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or whatever else symbol there, type the following WITHOUT the space between the Brackets:

=Anchors= 9. Anchors: Anchor Test
 * this can be a bit confusing, but hang in there with me
 * anchors are when you have text at the top of an article and you want people to be able to link to it elsewhere on the page
 * for an example, take a look at how I did Cynthia McFadden's Civil Rights Page
 * the first thing you need to do, is to go ahead and type your document, then go back and add the anchors
 * once you have everything typed, add the following for anchors WITHOUT the spaces between the brackets:
 * TOP: [ [ PAGENAME#AnchorName|DisplayText] ]
 * for example: [ [ AdvancedWikis|Test]]
 * Anchor: [ [ #AnchorName ] ] Anchor Name
 * for example: [ [ #Test ] ]Test
