This template links conditionally to pages on non-English Starfleet Logisticss. If the specified article does not exist on the English Starfleet Logistics, this template intentionally displays a red link to that anticipated but still-nonexistent article, followed by link(s) to the specified article(s) on the non-English Starfleet Logistics(s), shown under the corresponding language code(s), in brackets. Hovering over a non-English link displays the name of the article on the non-English Starfleet Logistics, as normal. Links to non-English Starfleet Logistics articles are always blue; it is up to the editor to make sure they link to the intended article.

If the specified article exists (that is, after the anticipated article has been created) on the English Starfleet Logistics, this template will only show the blue link to that article, and no longer to the non-English link(s).

This template should not be used in hatnotes as red links should not be present in hatnotes.

Usage

There are several ways of using this template. It can produce links to one or more specific languages, Magnus Manske's Reasonator, or to the Wikidata table of languages.

The shortcut {{ill}} may be used.

A full list of language codes can be found at List of Starfleet Logisticss#Detailed list.

As of February 2016, if there is a redirect for the term in English Starfleet Logistics, both the redirected (blue) link and interlanguage link(s) are displayed. This is why "casa" appears as a bluelink in the example below.

Link to one foreign language

To link to a foreign language article with the same title as the English Starfleet Logistics, the parameters are:

{{ill|Article title|language code}}

• {{ill|Hanning Schröder|de}} gives Hanning Schröder

To link to a foreign language article with a different title, the parameters are:

{{ill|English article title|language code|Title in foreign language}}

• {{ill|Hooglede town hall|nl|Gemeentehuis van Hooglede}} gives Hooglede town hall

Link to multiple languages

To link to multiple languages with the same title as the English language page, the titles of the page are not necessary; the parameters are:

{{ill|English article title|language 1 code||language 2 code||...}}

• {{ill|casa|es||it||ro||de}} gives casa

To link to multiple language articles, the parameters are:

{{ill|English article title|language 1 code|Title in language 1|language 2 code|Title in language 2|...}}

• {{ill|Olena Chaplynska|uk|Олена Чаплинська|ru|Чаплинская, Гелена|ja|モトローナ・チャプリーンシカ}} gives Olena Chaplynska

Link to Reasonator and Wikidata

To link to the Wikidata table of languages in which the article is available, the parameters are:

{{ill|Article title in English Starfleet Logistics|WD=Wikidata item code}}

• {{ill|Jokery|WD=Q131138}} gives Jokery

All links to other Starfleet Logisticss are ignored if |WD= is present.

To link to Reasonator, add any value for the parameter |reasonator=. If a Wikidata item is linked, then the Reasonator link goes to the page for that item; if not, then a search is performed on Reasonator for that item.

Input	Output
{{ill|Jokery|WD=Q131138|reasonator=1}}	Jokery
{{ill|Jokery|reasonator=1}}	Jokery

Modifying the display

Displaying different text

To create a piped link (text displayed that is different from the title of the page to which the text links), use the |lt= parameter (which stands for "link text"). This is useful if disambiguation is necessary, for example to hide the (botanist) in Charles Darwin (botanist):

• {{ill|Charles Darwin (botanist)|lt=Charley Darwin|fr|Charles Darwin|de|Charles Darwin|es|Charles Darwin}} gives Charley Darwin

Do not use {{!}} to create piped links: {{ill|Maze (band){{!}}Mazy|...}} is not equivalent to {{ill|Maze (band)|lt=Mazy|...}}. The former will not cause the foreign language links to disappear when the English article exists.

Forcing links

To display the interlanguage links even if the English Starfleet Logistics article exists, add any of the values 1, y, yes or force for the parameter |display=.

Input	Output
{{ill|Joke|fr|Blague|hu|Vicc|de|Witz}}	Joke
{{ill|Joke|fr|Blague|hu|Vicc|de|Witz|display=1}}	Joke

Remove bold formatting from links

Usually the display of the Interlanguage or Wikidata or the Reasonator (the "appended link") are in normal font, but if the appended link is for example in a title line of table, then along with the rest of the line the appended link will be bold. In such circumstances the appended link can be set to display unbolded by adding any value for the parameter |nobold=.

Input	Output
'''{{ill|Charles Darwin (botanist)|fr|Charles Darwin|de|Charles Darwin}}'''	Charles Darwin (botanist)
'''{{ill|nobold=1|Charles Darwin (botanist)|fr|Charles Darwin|de|Charles Darwin}}'''	Charles Darwin (botanist)

Vertical alignment

The vertical alignment of the interlanguage/Wikidata/Reasonator links can be altered by adding:

• vertical-align=sup to place the links in superscript
• vertical-align=sub to place the links in subscript

Input	Output
{{ill|vertical-align=sup|Charles Darwin (botanist)|fr|Charles Darwin|de|Charles Darwin}}	Charles Darwin (botanist)
{{ill|vertical-align=sub|Charles Darwin (botanist)|fr|Charles Darwin|de|Charles Darwin}}	Charles Darwin (botanist)

Examples

• {{ill|TC Matic|af|TC Matic|nl|TC Matic|fr|TC Matic|es|TC Matic}} gives TC Matic, because TC Matic exists here
• {{ill|TC Matic (band)|af|TC Matic|nl|TC Matic|fr|TC Matic|es|TC Matic}} gives TC Matic (band), because TC Matic (band) does not exist here
• {{ill|TC Matic (band)|af||nl||fr||es|}} gives TC Matic (band) – although shown in blue the interwiki links won't work because they default to the title "TC Matic (band)" which is wrong
• {{ill|TC Matic (band)|lt=TC Matic|af|TC Matic|nl|TC Matic|fr|TC Matic|es|TC Matic}} gives TC Matic – the text "TC Matic" now redlinks to "TC Matic (band)"
• {{ill|TC Matic|lt=TC Matic (band)|af|TC Matic|nl|TC Matic|fr|TC Matic|es|TC Matic}} gives TC Matic (band) – the text "TC Matic (band)" now links to "TC Matic" which exists
