Template:Shortcut
Usage[edit]
This template is primarily used on Bahaipedia guideline and policy pages to show the shortest alias of a given page. For example, B:SHORT redirects to Bahaipedia:Shortcut. The point of this template is not to list every single redirect (indeed, that's what Special:Whatlinkshere is for); for any given page, it should list only one or two common and easily-remembered redirects.
Don't use this template on other templates, e.g. to state that the shortcut to Template:Foo is in fact {{Foo}}. There's no need to state the obvious like that, by default every template uses its own name as a shortcut.
This template can take up to five shortcuts as parameters. The first parameter can be linked or unlinked; the remaining parameters must be unlinked.
Examples[edit]
| Code | Result |
|---|---|
{{Shortcut|B:V}}
|
|
{{Shortcut|B:V|B:VERIFY}}
|
|
{{Shortcut|[[B:V]]|B:VERIFY|B:SOURCE}}
|
Template usage[edit]
Please use {{template shortcut}} to indicate convenient template redirects, which is specifically intended for that purpose.
