Goal
This template can be used for links to MediaWiki wiki pages.
Usage
{{mediawiki|page title|alternative text|lang=|oldid=|diff=}}
All parameters are optional.
- page title
- Page title to link to. Defaults to Main Page.
- alternative text
- Alternative text to be shown instead of the page title. Note that if this parameter is not given, mw: will be appended to the page name.
- lang
- Language code to link to another language version than the English one. The language will not be shown (currently not implemented), but the page title might give a hint.
- oldid
- Oldid from the end of the MediaWiki wiki permalink URL to use when linking to a specific article revision. Can be found through the page history.
- diff
- If not empty a link to a diff comparing the oldid revision with the previous revision will be shown. Instead of a regular link and a permalink a permalink and a link to a diff will be shown.
