Template:T links

{{Example}} (edit talk history links # /subpages /doc /doc edit /sbox /sbox diff /test)

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

This template provides a list of links to a template. There are no restricted links (such as adding protection to the template). A link to a related module can be added.

Usage

• <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">{{t links|infobox building}}</syntaxhighlight> →
  {{Infobox building}} (edit talk history links # /subpages /doc /doc edit /sbox /sbox diff /test)

• <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">{{t links|infobox building|sandboxlinks=yes}}</syntaxhighlight> →
  infobox building/sandbox (edit · t · history · diff · links · /test · Source · e · t · hist · links · /subpages · /doc · /doc edit)

(same effect:)

• <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">{{t links|infobox building/sandbox}}</syntaxhighlight> →
  infobox building/sandbox (edit · t · history · diff · links · /test · Source · e · t · hist · links · /subpages · /doc · /doc edit)

Options

Adding link to a module

When an eponymous module exists, it is added:

• {{T links|Track gauge}} →

{{Track gauge}} (edit talk history links # /subpages /doc /doc edit /sbox /sbox diff /test) · Module:Track gauge

• Any other module (or none) can be linked:

• {{T links|Track gauge}} →

{{Track gauge}} (edit talk history links # /subpages /doc /doc edit /sbox /sbox diff /test) · Module:string

• <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">{{T links|Track gauge|module=}}</syntaxhighlight> →

{{Track gauge}} (edit talk history links # /subpages /doc /doc edit /sbox /sbox diff /test) (blank so not linked)

Adding sandbox links

When working with the ../sandbox of templates, the sandbox links can be made explicit:

• <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">{{T links|Track gauge|sandboxlinks=yes}}</syntaxhighlight> →

Track gauge/sandbox (edit · t · history · diff · links · /test · Source · e · t · hist · links · /subpages · /doc · /doc edit)

This can also help to prevent changing the live version code by accident.

Adding the WP:TPU-link

• <syntaxhighlight lang="text" class="" style="" inline="1">{{T links|Track gauge|tpu=yes}}</syntaxhighlight> →

{{Track gauge}} (edit talk history links # /subpages /doc /doc edit /sbox /sbox diff /test) TPU
