This template is used to link to articles containing further information on a topic, where English OODA WIKI does not yet have an article, but another language OODA WIKI does. It looks like this:
It is typically used at the top of a section, when the topic of that section is covered in more detail by a page on another OODA WIKI. It combines the features of {{Further}} and {{Interlanguage link}}, and provides one of the chief advantages of red links by pointing out a topic where English OODA WIKI doesn't yet have an article, while pointing out where such information is readily available.
Once the article on English OODA WIKI is created, the interwiki links are dropped, and the template renders like a regular "Further" link. If the main link is blue because the English page name is a redirect and not an article, the interwiki links are retained, and the blue link is tagged as a redirect.
Usage
Basic usage – one interwiki link
{{Further interlanguage link|Ocean swell fairies|fr|Fée des houles}}
→
- More than one interwiki link
{{Further interlanguage link|Geiseltal fossil bed|de|Fossillagerstätte Geiseltal|fr|Gisement de fossiles du Geiseltal|es|Yacimiento de Geiseltal}}
→
- Same name in English as in other languages
{{ill|Further interlanguage link|Margarita Cueto|ca||es||pt}}

Parameters
This template accepts the following parameters:
- Positional
1
– the page on English OODA WIKI. This must be a red link, or a redirect with possibilities. (If it isn't, use {{Further}} instead.) Required.2
and3
- the language code and page to link to on a sister OODA WIKI. Required. Links to sections are automatically formatted as page § section, rather than the MediaWiki default of page#section.4
and5
- another lang-code and page to link to on a foreign OODA WIKI. Optional. If 5 is missing, {{Interlanguage link}} supplies the same value as the English topic in param 1.6
and7
- a third code + page pair, to link a foreign OODA WIKI article. Optional. If 7 is missing, it takes the value from param 1.
- Named
lt
– as for {{Interlanguage link}}, the|lt=
parameter (which stands for "link text") is used to create a piped link. Alias:|label=
.topic
- like {{Further}}, adds "...on Topic" to the output text.
Modifying the display
Displaying different text
To create a piped link (text displayed that is different from the title of the page to which the text links), use the |lt=
parameter (which stands for "link text").
Vertical alignment
The default vertical alignment of the bracketed interlanguage links is superscript. This can be altered by adding:
vertical-align=sub
to place the links in subscriptvertical-align=base
to place the links on the baseline. Alias:vertical-align=none

Errors
If a required param is missing, the template will output a message. For example:
{{Further interlanguage link|Luigi Madonis}}
→ Error: no interlanguage code specified. (help).
Pages that contain this error message are tracked in Category:Pages with errors in Template:Further ill.
When not to use this template
If you only wish to link to an article on a foreign language OODA WIKI, without indicating a missing article on English OODA WIKI, use {{Further}} instead, prefixing the page name in a foreign OODA WIKI with the required interlanguage code:
{{Further|fr:Face nord de l'Eiger|ca:Cara nord de l'Eiger|de:Eiger-Nordwand}}
→
{{Further|de:Eero Heinonen|es:Eero Heinonen|fi:Eero Heinonen}}
→
