Template:Special
creates a plain link for {{Special|Page|Name|Value|Title}}
[{{fullurl:Special:Page|Name=Value}} Title]
.
The link has in essence the same effect as [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Page?Name=Value Title]
.
The default for the optional Title
is the localized name of the Page
, i.e., {{PAGENAME:{{#special:Page}}}}
. Examples:
yields Talk{{Special|PrefixIndex|namespace|1|Talk}}
yields PrefixIndex{{Special|PrefixIndex|namespace|1}}
yields subpages{{Special|PrefixIndex/{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}/|stripprefix|1|subpages}}
yields official{{Special|Log|user|3=WMFOffice&type=rights|4=official}}
Omitting Name=Value
might apparently work, but actually this is not supported, e.g.,
yields MyPage.
{{Special|Mypage}}
You can use [[Special:Page|{{PAGENAME:{{#special:Page}}}}]]
where Name=Value
is not needed. On Meta the localized name of Mypage is the default MyPage
(note camel case), and you can simply write [[Special:Mypage|]]
. If a template is also used on Wikis with localized names the longer form with {{PAGENAME:{{#special:Page}}}}
might be better. Also see c:, d:, mw:, w:de:, w:en:.
