Template:Sister-inline/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Sister-inline. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used on approximately 80,000 pages, so changes to it will be widely noticed. Please test any changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Please consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This is a meta-template used for creating interwiki links to other sister projects of Wikipedia. Note that links to other language Wikipedias should not use links in this form, instead use Wikidata to add them to the sidebar.
This is a companion template to {{sister project}} to be used where a floating side box causes layout problems on short articles.
Usage[edit source]
This template should normally be placed at the top of the External links section at the end of an article, if the article has a section for external links. If no such section exists, then please place it at the top of the last section in the article. On disambiguation pages, this template should be listed above other text, but below any cleanup templates, images, infoboxes or navboxes.
|project=
The sister project to link to. Used to select the displayed logo and the text.|links=
A single interwiki link to the article at the sister project. Displays with text such as "Media related to{{{links}}}
at Wikimedia Commons"|list=
Alternatively, a list of multiple links to articles at sister projects. Displays with text such as "Related media at Wikimedia Commons:{{{list}}}
"
Example:
{{sister-inline |project=commons |links=[[commons:Dog|Dogs]] }}
Media related to Dogs at Wikimedia Commons
Adding |short=yes
will omit the following explanatory text; this can be useful for adding short links to navigational boxes, for instance. This permits the link's text to differ from the link's address in namespace.
Example:
{{sister-inline |project=v |links=[[v:Category:Wikiversity quizzes placed on Wikipedia|Quizzes on Wikipedia articles can be found at Wikiversity]] |short=yes }}
Quizzes on Wikipedia articles can be found at Wikiversity
