< /Nowiki >elements.

Step 7: Go to the Places page, and Edit the page. Add the name of the area in the appropriate area, and use the double brackets on either side to make a page link: [[PlacesName]]
Step 8: Save the edit to the places page. The page you wish to create should now show as a link. Click on it.
