Template documentationUsage
Sometimes, a template asks for you to enter a wikilink to a page, and it's so sure that you want to wikilink a page that it even includes the opening and closing brackets ([[...]]) for you. How kind! Except that you, being your unorthodox self, don't want to enter a wikilink. What to do? That's where this template comes in. Just enter the text you actually want as the first unnamed parameter, and voilà, watch the brackets disappear before your very own eyes!
Warning: Please don't abuse your newfound power. Unless it's clear that modifying the template itself would be inappropriate (e.g. adapting it for an April Fools prank), it's nearly always better to modify the template itself to handle your desired use case.
