Template:Comics: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 15:41, 28 March 2020

This template creates a link to a comic for inline citations, for instance:

This template can also be used to shorten a link down to the issue number itself, when citing multiple comics within the same series, e.g.:

It can also print out the comic title without being linked, and also strips italics (they can be added on around the template call, of course):

{{comics|starbuck|1|nolink=y}} creates Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1
''{{comics|starbuck|1|nolink=y}}'' creates Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1
{{comics|starbuck|1|nolink=y|template=y}} creates Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck 1|Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1^[1]
{{comics|starbuck|1|short=y|nolink=y}} creates #1^[2]

It can also be used to link to the proper comic issue, but with custom text to be hyperlinked.

The parameters switch for this template may be found here.

↑ Piping is deliberate so as to be integrated into templates that already have linking abilities built in.
↑ Not that this is really necessary, anyway...
