I think that adding links to the manual pages on the wiki is generally
not a good idea, because the names of those pages change with every FPC
release. The exception are pages for units documentation, as those have
fixed names.

The way I find such pages is via google, so maybe a link to
https://www.google.be/search?q=site:www.freepascal.org+codepage is
better. At least it will always be up-to-date.

I see your point, but I think that people should just regularly update
the wiki as information gets outdated etc.
If people cannot go from a broken link to typing in the keyword it
points to in a search engine, well....

That is a dangerous path you step onto.
There are so many things I think are so incredibly obvious ;-)
