To link directly to category and image pages, instead of adding the category or image to the page, you can add an extra colon (:) at the front of the link:
 
[[:Category:Main]] - <nowiki>[[:Category:Main]]</nowiki><br>
[[:Image:Mario.jpg]] - <nowiki>[[:Image:Mario.jpg]]</nowiki>
 
This can come in handy to refer to a category or file page.
