Template:Lore Link/Doc

The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

Summary

The idea here is to stop nasty redlinks appearing on information transcluded from the Lore namespace into game spaces.

For instance, it's perfectly valid for the Oblivion:Abecean Sea article to transclude Lore:Abecean Sea but because of prior links, the Oblivion one gets redlinks to places like Hammerfell and Valenwood. We don't want Oblivion:Hammerfell and Oblivion:Valenwood pages because those ought to link to the Lore space.

This template will try the local namespace first, then the parent namespace, then Lore, and then display a non-link.

What To Use

  • {{Lore Link}}: Link to the gamespace article if it exists or the Lore article otherwise. Usually, you should not use this template outside of Lore space unless that page is transcluded into a Lore page. Instead, link directly to the page you want.
  • {{Future Link}}: Link to a gamespace article that doesn't yet exist but may in the future; link to the Lore article until then.
  • [[Lore:page]]: Always link to the Lore page, regardless of whether any gamespaces have a same-named article.

Parameters

Lore Link
Parametri Visibilità Descrizione
1 required The name of the page to link to.
display or 2 optional Text to display instead of the page name.
NSlink optional The link to use within the specific namespace. Always use the full name, including namespace, without square brackets (e.g., "Online:Werewolf (NPC)", not just "Werewolf (NPC)"). The namespace is required to allow for custom parent links, such as linking from a Dragonborn page to a custom Skyrim page.
NSdisplay optional The display text to use within the specific namespace.
