The formatting of the site will likely evolve as the site grows, but for now let's just try to keep the external links at the bottom of the page.
[edit] Creating New Articles
In general you can create internal links to other articles by typing on the edit page of an existing article:
[[Paris]]
Which will create a link that looks like this:
If the above article has not yet been created, it will appear in red rather than blue. Clicking on the red link will allow you to initiate the new article.
Alternatively, you may create new articles by typing in the name in the search field to the left and then hitting the "Go" button.
You will see "No page with this exact title exists," with "this exact title" as a link in red. Click on the link and you will be able to initiate the new article.
