In editing this article, I encountered a somewhat minor but unfortunate problem.  In the '''Introduction''' section, there is a great opportunity to link to a definition of '''Cells''' in general.  However, after searching the wiki, the only good definition I can come up with is on the page: '''Categories:Cells''', which is not linkable (unless I'm overlooking something) because it's a '''category'''.  Is there a way to either design a wiki syntax that will allow linking to a category page, or transfer the information on that page to a general wiki page without being redundant?<br />
