This template, and other related templates listed below, produce a series of links for a particular page, generally in the form: Name of Page (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) though there are variations.
- The six links are explained below:
edit– edit the page;talk– access its talk page ;history– access its edit history;links– access the what links here feature;watch– add the page to one's watchlist; andlog– access its logs.
The major difference between the templates is the namespace of the page to which it is applied.
- General:
- Template:Pagelinks (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) creates links for any page in any namespace.
- Template:Ln (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) creates links for pages in any subject namespace.
- Template:Lnt (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) creates links for pages in any talk namespace.
Usage
| Namespace | Link to subject page | Link to talk page |
|---|---|---|
| General | {{pagelinks|FULL PAGE NAME}} |
Same as for subject page |
| {{ln|NAMESPACE|PAGE NAME}} | {{lnt|NAMESPACE|PAGE NAME}} | |
| Article | {{la|ARTICLE}} | {{lat|ARTICLE}} |
| Template | {{lt|TEMPLATE}} | {{ltt|TEMPLATE}} |
| Wikipedia | {{lw|PAGE}} | {{lwt|PAGE}} |
| Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/ | {{lafd|PAGE}} | — |
| User | {{lu|PAGE}} | {{lut|PAGE}} |
| Category | {{lc|PAGE}} | {{lct|PAGE}} |
| File | {{lf|FILE}} | {{lft|FILE}} |
| Portal | {{lp|PORTAL}} | {{lpt|PORTAL}} |
| MediaWiki | {{lm|MESSAGE}} | {{lmt|MESSAGE}} |
| Help | {{lh|PAGE}} | {{lht|PAGE}} |
| Book | {{lb|BOOK}} | {{lbt|BOOK}} |
Examples
{{subst:ln|Category|Stubs}} results (or resulted) in this code:
{{lx|1=:{{ucfirst:Category}}:|2={{ucfirst:Stubs}}|3=:Category talk|4=talk}}
Note the important colon in 1=:, unnecessary (?) for other Lx namespaces.
Substituting both Lx and Ucfirst finally arrived at (line breaks added manually):
<span class="plainlinksneverexpand">[[:Category:Stubs]] <tt>(</tt>
[{{fullurl::Category:Stubs|action=edit}} edit]<tt>|</tt>
[[:Category talk:Stubs|talk]]<tt>|</tt>
[{{fullurl:Special:Whatlinkshere/:Category:Stubs|limit=999}} links]<tt>|</tt>
[{{fullurl::Category:Stubs|action=history}} history]<tt>|</tt>
[{{fullurl::Category:Stubs|action=watch}} watch]<tt>)</tt></span>
