But that's not what I meant. What I meant is like in the file system: absolute paths start at the root. So e.g. (imaginary) [[Documentation/UserGuide/GettingStarted/chapter1]] is an absolute path, while relative paths start with the present document's path, so to link to the above Page from another chapter, let's say from
  [[Documentation/UserGuide/GettingStarted/chapter2]]
you can simply write [[../chapter1]]

The only discrepancy is that path names starting with a slash are interpreted as childs from the present document. So from the page
  [[Documentation/UserGuide/GettingStarted]]
the link [[/chapter1]] and [[/chapter2]] lead to the above subpages (and do not represent absolute pathnames like in dos or unix filesystem naming conventions).

Ah! I saw where you did that, and was impressed. Now you have taught me more. Is that on one of those MediaWiki Help pages?

The Basic Guide is full of places where that would work, unless someone wants to move pages between chapters; not very likely.
