Template:Mediawiki
From MediaWiki.org
[[{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]
This template links to a page on mediawiki.org from the Help pages. The template has two parameters:
- Pagename, optionally preceded by an interwiki link prefix valid on mediawiki.org
- (optional) Link description
This is so that the public domain help pages - which can be freely copied and included in other sites - have correct links to Mediawiki:
- on external sites, it creates an interwiki link to 'mediawikiwiki' (included in the default interwiki table for new installs)
- on Mediawiki, it creates an internal or interwiki link
All links from the Help namespace to other parts of the mediawiki.org wiki should use this template.
[edit] Demo of interwiki link
{{mediawiki|m:Help:Calculation|Help:Calculation}} gives either [[m:Help:Calculation|Help:Calculation]] or [[mediawikiwiki:m:Help:Calculation|Help:Calculation]].
