This template creates a link to a comic for inline citations, for instance:
- {{comics|1880|1}} creates {{#if:{{{nolink}}}||[[}}Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 1|Steampunk Battlestar Galactica 1880 #1
- {{comics|bsgvsbsg|1}} creates {{#if:{{{nolink}}}||[[}}Battlestar Galactica vs. Battlestar Galactica 1|Battlestar Galactica vs. Battlestar Galactica #1
- {{comics|cw|1}} creates {{#if:{{{nolink}}}||[[}}Battlestar Galactica: Cylon War 1|Battlestar Galactica: Cylon War #1
- {{comics|origins|1}} creates {{#if:{{{nolink}}}||[[}}Battlestar Galactica: Origins 1|Battlestar Galactica: Origins #1
- {{comics|starbuck|1}} creates {{#if:{{{nolink}}}||[[}}Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck 1|Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1
- {{comics|vol3|1}} creates {{#if:{{{nolink}}}||[[}}Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 3 1|Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 3 #1
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.:
- {{comics|starbuck|1|short=y}} creates {{#if:{{{nolink}}}||[[}}Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck 1|#1
It can also print out the comic title without being linked:
- {{comics|starbuck|1|nolink=y}} creates {{#if:y||[[}}Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck 1|Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1
