Vorlage:Further

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

This template is used to link to articles containing further information on a topic. It looks like this:

Further information: Article

It is typically used at the top of a section, when the topic of that section is covered in more detail by another page. It is useful for implementing summary style.

Usage

Basic usage

{{further|page1|page2|page3|...}}

All parameters

{{further|page1|page2|page3|...|selfref=yes|category=no}}

Parameters

This template accepts the following parameters:

• 1, 2, 3, ... - the pages to link to. At least one page name is required. Categories and files are automatically escaped with the colon trick, and links to sections are automatically formatted as page § section, rather than the MediaWiki default of page#section.
• selfref - if set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", adds the CSS class "selfref". This is used to denote self-references to Wikipedia. See Template:Selfref for more information.
• category - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category (Category:Hatnote templates with errors). This only has an effect if the first positional parameter (the page to link to) is omitted.

Examples

• {{further|Article}} →
  Further information: Article
• {{further|Article1|Article2|Article3}} →
  Further information: Article1, Article2 und Article3

Errors

If no page names are supplied, the template will output the following message:

If you see this error message, it is for one of four reasons:

1. No parameters were specified (the template code was {{further}}). Please use {{further|page}} instead.
2. Some parameters were specified, but no page names were included. For example, the template text {{further|selfref=yes}} will produce this error. Please use (for example) {{further|page|selfref=yes}} instead.
3. A page name was specified, but it contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code {{further|1+1=2|2+2=4}} will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explictly by using 1=, 2, etc., before the page name, like this: {{further|1=1+1=2|2=2+2=4}}.
4. You tried to access Module:Further directly by using {{#invoke:further|further|text}}. Use of #invoke in this way has been disabled for performance reasons. Please use {{further|text}} instead.

If you see this error message and are unsure of what to do, please post a message on the help desk, and someone should be able to help you.

Pages that contain this error message are tracked in Category:Hatnote templates with errors.

If a hatnote link leads to a disambiguation page without providing the "(disambiguation)" parameter, this parameter must be added manually. This indicates that the disambiguation link is intentional, and not an error (see WP:INTDABLINK for details):

• {{Main|PAGE}} → PAGE

  Main articles: WLAN und Mail

"Further information: …"

• {{About|||WLANDrahtlose Netzwerkverbindung|and|Mail}} →
  For other uses, see WLAN and Mail.

Note: {{for||WLANDrahtlose Netzwerkverbindung|Mail}} produces the same result.

• {{About|USE1|section=yes}} →
  This section is about USE1. For other uses, see Further (disambiguation).

Note: this hatnote says "section", instead of "article" or "page".

"For …, see …"

{{For}} can be used instead of {{About}} so as not to display: This page is about USE1. but still specify a specific other use. This effect can also be achieved by using an empty first parameter in {{About}} as in:

For example: {{for|OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}} is the same as {{About||OTHER TOPIC|PAGE1}} (note the empty first parameter).

However, it is somewhat clearer when using the {{For}} template, since the word "about" does not appear in the statement.

• {{For|OTHER TOPIC}} →
  For OTHER TOPIC, see Further (disambiguation).
• {{For|OTHER TOPIC|WLANDrahtlose Netzwerkverbindung}} →
  For OTHER TOPIC, see WLAN.
• {{For|OTHER TOPIC|WLANDrahtlose Netzwerkverbindung|Mail}} →

Notes

These templates are used in thousands of articles; therefore, changing the syntax could break thousands of articles. If you wish to create or edit a disambiguation or redirection template, first ask yourself the following questions:

1. Do I really need a new template for this? Will it likely be used on any other articles or should I just use {{Hatnote}} instead? Before creating a new template, see the template namespace guideline.
2. If I change the parameters around on an existing template, do I know what the result will be? Will it break existing uses of the template and if so, can I fix all of the errors? Before making any changes, see Template sandbox and test cases.
