While a WikiLink is limited to alphanumerics and only a few special charaters, it is possible to create page names containing other characters: -* To display a page name with a space in it, use "_" in the WikiLink, for - example, [[Multi_Word_Page_Name]]. -* For any other special character, you can use "__nnnn__" where `nnnn` is the - unicode character number.
