A wikilink (or internal link) is a link from one page to another page within the English Wikipedia, or, more generally, within the same Wikipedia (e.g. within the French Wikipedia), in other words: within the same domain, or, even more generally, within the same Wikimedia project (e.g. within Wiktionary).
On Wikipedia and other sites running on MediaWiki, Special:Random can be used to access a random article in the main namespace; this feature is useful as a tool to generate a random article.

The {{}} template creates inline links to Wiktionary by default for each word separately to a page that matches that word, within the supplied text. Other wikis can be specified and thus interlanguage Wikipedias or interwiki links can be created.
