If you’re observant, you might have noticed two distinct icons appearing before links in my posts. These serve as a visual indication on where the links go to. Links without icons are normal external links, that is, they link outside the blog. Links with a Roman ’W’ inside a square icon are external links to Wikipedia articles. Wikipedia is special since I frequently link to it. Finally, links with the v9 icon link to other pages within this blog, typically to other posts.

For example, I might link to the official site of Paul van Dyk, the Wikipedia article on Paul van Dyk, or to a previous blog post about Paul van Dyk.

Hopefully, this serves to help you, the reader, distinguish between links. Maybe some might not want to read material elsewhere but would be interested to hear my thoughts on the subject. The icons help in those cases, like in my previous post Late September where I link to external sources except for one that links to a previous post. You’d be able to tell at a glance that I’ve written about the artist before.
