Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Template:Cricketarchive displays an external link to a CricketArchive web page. Links to cricket player profiles are created with the "id" parameter and links to other pages are created with the "ref" parameter. It is intended for use in the external links section of an article.

For players, the "id" value should be added to the (P2698) property in Wikidata. Then, if the "id" or "ref" parameters are not specified, the template will retrieve the id from Wikidata.
