Template:w

A template to make a link to Wikipedia.

Usage

{{w}} by itself links to the Wikipedia page for the page you use the template on

• w

{{w|Name}} links to the Wikipedia article on "Name"

• Name

{{w|Name|Display}} prints "Display" which links to the Wikipedia article on "Name"

• Display

The first character of the link target is automatically capitalized, such that e.g. {{w|xkcd}} (xkcd) and {{w|Xkcd|xkcd}} (xkcd) both link to the same URL. (Wikipedia page titles never start with a lowercase character, though they can display with alternative capitalization.) xkcd.com
