This documentation is transcluded from Template:W/doc.

This template is used to help create interwiki links without displaying the prefix, and without the need for repetition if the same page name is to display; understroke characters in the page name are replaced by space characters.

It is also possible to categorize using the (first or second) parameter.

Usage

{{Wd |1= }}

TemplateData

TemplateData is a way to store information about template parameters (the description of those and of the whole template) for both humans and machines. It is used by VisualEditor and possibly other tools like Upload Wizard.


Existing template documentation
At Wikimedia Commons, it is recommended to use {{TemplateBox}} with either ‎useTemplateData=1 or ‎useTemplateData=only on the ‎/doc subpage and transcluding it with {{Documentation}} into the template. ‎<nowiki>-tags can be wrapped around the arguments, if required, to avoid templates being expanded.

Newly created template documentation and imports
Another option, especially for imported templates, or for users with JSON experience, is placing raw ‎<templatedata>-tags into the Wikitext of the template, as described in various Wikipediae.

Discussion
There is an ongoing discussion about that matter. Feel invited to comment if you are experienced in either way, your time permits and if you like to share your opinion or to make a suggestion.


Wikipedia's help about TemplateDataCommons-specific information

This template is used to help create interwiki links without displaying the prefix, <span style="font-weight:normal">and without the need for [[User talk:Perhelion/simpleSVGcheck.js#Link templates|repetition]] if the same page name is to display; understroke characters in the page name are ''replaced'' by space characters.</span>

  • <span style="font-weight:normal">The default template name is simply <code>[[:Template:W|W]]</code> which creates a link to the [[:w:|English Wikipedia]].</span>
  • <span style="font-weight:normal">However any [[:w:List of ISO 639-1 codes|language code]] (>400 [[:Category:Language templates|templates]]) instead of <code>de</code> can be specified in the third parameter.</span>
It is also possible to categorize <span style="font-weight:normal">using the (first or second) parameter.</span>

The "W××" templates are shortcuts of the main template {{W}}, setting the language code with parameter 3: {{ W××link }} is just {{ Wlink3 = ×× }}
the "W×" templates are abbreviated shortcuts for some very often used languages.

More W× templates are elsewhere in use:
but there are no other language codes starting with "w", so plenty of "W×" templates may be created.

  • {{multilingual link}}

Localization

This template is not intended to be localized.

Recommendation

For linking to a sister project, an internal link such as {{W||en.wikipedia}}) is preferred over an external one as e.g. [http://en.wikipedia.org en.wikipedia].

Category option

Very often one (or more) of the names linked with a W-template are also used for categorizing. As a simplification, the W-template can care for both: the page name or the display text of the Template:W can be also used for this categorizing, by just adding the parameter "+", "c" or "C".

Modification of the "cat" parameter:

When it is not the correct category name, it can be modified:

  • with "+=" a number of characters can be specified to strip on the left of the parameter,
with "-=" to strip from the end of the parameter.
To perform the "+" and/or "-" stripping a module is invoked. When no (+/-)-stripping is needed, use '+' instead of 'c' for less effort.
  • With "h=" or "t=" text can be specified to prefix and/or trail the parameter.

Example: {{W|Toronto|+}} categorizes to Toronto;
{{W|Toronto|+|t=_in_art}} categorizes to Toronto in art
