Template:W

Template

 Wikipedia

Motivation

This template is thought to replace all links to the English Wikipedia. This makes it more easy to control external links in our Wiki.

See WikiProjects.Links.

Syntax

{{wiki|*page name in the English Wikipedia*|*link text*}}

Note that neither parameter is necessary. If the second one misses, the linked to page title is used as link name, if both miss however, the template creates a link to the English Wikipedia. If only the first one misses, the second one can be used to precise a different name for the link to the English Wikipedia.

Examples

•  Shareazas Wikipedia article

{{w|Shareaza|Shareazas Wikipedia article}}

•  Shareaza

{{w|Shareaza}}

•  Wiki

{{w|2=Wiki}}

•  Wikipedia

{{w}}

Note that the template corrects the text for use in URLs, which means that for example, URI scheme will become URI+scheme. However, this beaks some links, for example if a '/' is included, it will be transformed into %2F. Example:

•  URI scheme

{{w|URI scheme}}
