Hi Daveythefatboy, since you seem to be new to Wikipedia I just wanted to let you know why I removed the "Internal link" section and link from the Stuff Smith article. In this case, I think that referencing a song that Smith recorded doesn't really provide notable biographical info about Smith in keeping with the rest of the article (unless, for example, he won some award with it or it was associated with him in an important way - in which case that should be noted). Furthermore, I've never seen a section of "internal links" before, though "See also" sections are sometimes appropriate for articles that are highly related.
For future reference, what you refer to as "internal links" are usually called "wikilinks" and don't need the http://en.wikipedia.org part. Simply surrounding an article title with double brackets is sufficient. RosinDebow 14:08, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
