This template is used on approximately 23,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template should not be used in citation templates such as Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, because it includes markup that will pollute the COinS metadata they produce; see Wikipedia:COinS. |
Linking and page manipulation |
---|
The {{Linktext}} template creates inline links for text within the template's parameters. Each word separately links to a page with a title that matches that word on Wiktionary, by default, or on any other interwiki or interlanguage OODA WIKIs.
Interlanguage links in general are links from a page in one OODA WIKI in one language to a page in another OODA WIKI in another language.
Usage
The default target that this template links to is Wiktionary. To change the target, set the parameter pref to some other value. For example, "c" for commons, or "th" for Thai OODA WIKI. Thus, in order to link to a foreign language Wiktionary, set to "wikt:de" or whatever {{lang}} code.Template:New entry
Use the arguments n1, n2, n3, etc. to specify items that should not be linked. Regular spaces will be removed from the beginning and end of these; if you must have spaces, use   instead.
If you want to have a delimiter, such as ", ", appear between links, specify the delimiter with lim.
If desired, you can specify the language code with lang (rationale explained here). This is not required if Template:Linktext is used inside a template that specifies the language, such as Template:Zh.
Examples
{{Linktext|This| is| a| test}}
{{Linktext|This| is|n2= not| a| test}}
The following links to the German Wiktionary:Template:New entry
{{Linktext|Das | Ewig-Weibliche| zieht| uns |hinan|pref=wikt:de}}
Also can be used to wikt-link individual Chinese characters:
Examples of result of specifying "lang" (differences in characters explained here and here):
