 == File naming ==
-The AppleDouble format keeps the data fork of the file in its original format and filename (this is the main file, as used by non-Mac operating systems, and for many file formats, the only one that matters), and creates a second "header" file with the resource fork as well as Finder metadata.
+The AppleDouble format keeps the data fork of the file in its original format and filename (this is the main file, as used by non-Mac operating systems, and for many file formats, the only one that matters), and creates a second "header" file with the resource fork as well as [[Finder information|Finder metadata]].
 The specification says that the header filename should be prefixed with a "%", or prefixed with "R.", or have a file extension of ".ADF", depending on the filesystem's capabilities.
