Forum:External Link icon

This has really been bugging me for a while. I would like to know if there is a way to either (a) link to Mariowiki without that stupid icon after it, or (b) remove the silly icon after any external link. I don't know if it's something I have to contact Wikia Staff for, or if it's just a MediaWiki code. Can anyone help? A nimal  C rossing   L eader  15:07, June 22, 2012 (UTC)
 * Mariowiki is on the InterWiki map, so you can link like this --  Random Time  15:13, June 22, 2012 (UTC)

 * Try w:c:mariowiki instead. And yes, it is possible to remove the external link icon, it's actually quite easy, but it would probably violate the TOU. — Matthew2602 (talk) 22:44, June 22, 2012 (UTC)
 * That's what I use sometimes, (w:c:mario) and it is not the same. See, do a comparison between Mariowiki and Mario Wiki's Mario Party 9 articles. A nimal   C rossing   L eader  23:02, June 22, 2012 (UTC)

See Forum:How to remove the arrow next to external links?. Or, you can use this code: For the Mariowiki link only, you can use this code:
 * What's the MarioWiki only code? It seems you didn't put it in. But, thanks for the first code! A nimal   C rossing   L eader  10:21, June 23, 2012 (UTC)
 * The mariowiki only code would just be


 * I'm not sure whether removing the icon for just one site violates the TOU, but you might want to be careful about that. — Matthew2602 (talk) 10:54, June 23, 2012 (UTC)
 * An easy way to remove the external link icon is to add plainlinks to it. Simply cover it with a span and classify it as plainlinks. Here is an example:
 * Code:.
 * Result: Mario Wiki
 * Before this thread dies out, I wanted to ask if it's still possible to change the external icon into something different? I did a bit of research and all the methods do not work any longer. -- Zikkun (talk)  04:45, June 24, 2012 (UTC)
