Template:Ln/doc

About

This template and the other related templates listed below produce a series of links for a specified page that is generally, though not always, of the form:

Page (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

The six links are:

edit – edit the page;

talk/subject – access its talk page (or if the target page is a talk page, its subject page);

history – access its edit history;

links – access the what links here feature;

watch – add the page to one's watchlist; and

log – access its logs.

The major difference between the templates is the namespace of the page to which it is applied.

• General:
  • Template:Pagelinks (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) creates links for any page in any namespace.

Usage

Namespace	Link to subject page	Link to talk page
General	{{pagelinks|FULL PAGE NAME}}	Same as for subject page
Article	{{la|ARTICLE}}	{{lat|ARTICLE}}
Template	{{lt|TEMPLATE}}	{{ltt|TEMPLATE}}
Category	{{lc|PAGE}}	{{lct|PAGE}}
Module	{{lmd|MODULE}}	{{lmdt|MODULE}}

Examples

{{subst:ln|Category|Stubs}} results (or resulted) in this code:

{{lx|1=:{{ucfirst:Category}}:|2={{ucfirst:Stubs}}|3=:Category talk|4=talk}}

Note the important colon in 1=:, unnecessary (?) for other Lx namespaces.
Substituting both Lx and Ucfirst finally arrived at (line breaks added manually):

<syntaxhighlight lang="html" style="style=overflow: auto;">

Category:Stubs (
edit|
talk|
links|
history|
watch)

</syntaxhighlight>
