Template:Plain link

[{{{url}}}]

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template will allow you to create a local or interwiki link (such as a link to the history of a page) on a page without having the follow the link. This can be used, for example, when internal or interwiki links appear as external links.

Caution

When you link to a Festipedia, omit the preceding "http:", or "https:", so that the URL begins with "//". This allows users to use the protocol they're currently using.

You can use {{fullurl}} magicword to generate URLs to Festipedia pages.

Examples

• {{Plain link|url=//www.Festipedia.org.uk}} gives [1]
• {{Plain link|//www.festipedia.org.uk Festipedia}} gives Festipedia
• {{Plain link|//www.festipedia.org.uk|Festipedia}} gives Festipedia
• {{Plain link|http://www.google.co.uk|Google}} gives Google

Note that if your url or link title contains an equals sign = you must use named parameters:

• {{ Plain link | url=//www.festipedia.org.uk/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764 | name="=" }} gives "="

To be more concise, you can use numbers as parameter names e.g.

• {{Plain link|1=//www.festipedia.org.uk/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764|2="="}} gives the same "="
