User:Wikid77/Embwlink
The User:Wikid77/Embwlink formats an external link to an outside webpage, but also allows wikilinking some embedded words in the title to Wikipedia pages.
Usage
[edit]- {{embwlink|"Use of |[[Thermodynamics]] |in daily work"|url=http://loc.gov}}
Any parameters with a leading square bracket "[" are treated as local wikilinks, while all other parameters are linked to the specified "url=" webpage address. The optional parameter "exhue=#0000CC" can set the hue (color) of the external-link text (default: #0077EE for light blue).
Note the placement of quotation marks (") at the start/end of the parameters for a page title. For italicized book/film titles, the double-tic marks (' ') go outside the curly brackets.
Examples
[edit]The following are some typical examples:
- {{embwlink|"Common |[[Thermodynamics]] |in Design"|url=http://loc.gov}}
→ "Common Thermodynamics in Design" - {{embwlink|"Tests Confirm| [[Swine Flu]] |Case In|[[Wisconsin]]" |url= http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=2199&dat=19761207&id=w9MxAAAAIBAJ}}
→ "Tests Confirm Swine Flu Case In Wisconsin" - ' '{{embwlink|History of|[[swine flu]] |on|[[Caribbean]]| islands|url=http://books.google.com}}' '
→ History of swine flu on Caribbean islands
Note the outside use of double-tic (' ') to denote the italicized words in the whole book title. Otherwise, each phrase can be italicized separately.
Problems
[edit]Messages:
- "fix url" – the URL must be specified for the external-link address
- "fix link" – parameter 1 is required to start a link
