+InterWiki links are a quick way to refer to information in other wikis, without having to remember
+cryptic URLs. To write an InterWiki link, just use the InterWiki moniker of the foreign wiki,
+followed by a page name on that wiki.
+Of course, InterWiki links are not rendered differently when the remote page does not exist, and
+MoinMoin cannot check whether you followed the rules for WikiName``s of the other wiki.
+So double-check what you type.
+See the wiki:MeatBall/InterWiki page on wiki:MeatBall:MeatballWiki for further details.
+
+List of valid InterWiki names this wiki knows of:
+[[InterWiki]]
+
+MoinMoin marks the InterWiki links in a way that works for the MeatBall:ColourBlind and also is MeatBall:LynxFriendly by using a little icon with an ALT attribute. If you hover above the icon in a graphical browser, you'll see to which Wiki it refers. If the icon has a border, that indicates that you used an illegal or unknown BadBadBad:InterWiki name (see the list above for valid ones). BTW, the reasoning behind the icon used is based on the idea that a Wiki:WikiWikiWeb is created by a team effort of several people.
