Is there a way to put famous relatives onto a tree that links to Relationship finder using that profile's name?

For my relatives, I would love to just add a link to their profile so they can click it and see how they are related to various famous people.  Is this possible?  For example, the person whose profile I put on here is related to Richard Nixon.  Distantly, but still related.

Hi Gurney,

Ann Bosset and Richard Nixon are fifth cousins once removed:

https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Relationship&action=calculate&person1_name=Buck-3805&person2_name=Nixon-22

Just copy the link.

For other people, replace the IDs in front of "person1_name" and "person2_name" with their IDs.

Thanks Ruben.

You could make it look prettier by doing it this way:

[https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Relationship&action=calculate&person1_name=Buck-3805&person2_name=Nixon-22 See how Ann is related to Richard Nixon]

You're welcome Gurney. Many thanks for Best Answer.

Jillaine's suggestion is a very good one.

See also another example on the following help page:

You can also link to the Quick Links page.  This should work on any profile

https://www.wikitree.com/treewidget/{{PAGENAMEE}}/102

(but it doesn't work in preview while editing)

Or, put the WikiTree ID instead of {{PAGENAMEE}}, eg

https://www.wikitree.com/treewidget/Tudor-4/102

If the name has a space in it, use _
