Template:Plain link
[{{{url}}} ]
This template will allow you to create a local or interwiki link (such as a link to the history of a page) on a page without having the follow the link. This can be used, for example, when internal or interwiki links appear as external links. See Help:URL#URLs on other Wikimedia projects for more information.
Caution
tulaikaWhen you link to a Wikipedia or other Wikimedia project URL, omit the preceding "http:", or "https:", so that the URL begins with "//". This allows users to use the protocol they're currently using.
You can use {{fullurl}}
magicword to generate URLs to Wikipedia pages.
Examples
tulaika{{Plain link|url=//www.wikipedia.org}}
gives [1]{{Plain link|//www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia}}
gives Wikipedia{{Plain link|//www.wikipedia.org | Wikipedia}}
gives Wikipedia{{Plain link|http://www.google.co.uk|Google}}
gives Google
Note that if your url or link title contains an equals sign =
you must use named parameters:
{{ Plainlink | url=//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764 | name="=" }}
gives "="
To be more concise, you can use {{scp}}
or {{plnk}}
and numbers as parameter names e.g.
{{scp|1=//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764|2="="}}
gives the same Template:Scp{{plnk|1=//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764|2="="}}
gives the same Template:Plnk
