Usage

With a topic

{{details|article|topic}}

All parameters

{{details|article|topic|selfref=yes|category=no}}

Parameters

This template accepts the following parameters:

• 1 - the page to link to (required). Categories and files are automatically escaped with the colon trick, and links to sections are automatically formatted as page § section, rather than the MediaWiki default of page#section.
• 2 - the name of the topic. If this is not specified, the text "this topic" is used.
• category - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category. This only has an effect if the first positional parameter (the page to link to) is omitted.

Examples

• {{details|Article}} →

Errors

If no page name is supplied, the template will output the following message:

• 
  

For more details on this topic, see [[{{{1}}}]].

If you see this error message, it is for one of three reasons:

1. No parameters were specified (the template code was {{details}}). Please use {{details|page}} instead.
2. Some parameters were specified, but the page name wasn't included. For example, the template text {{details|selfref=yes}} will produce this error. Please use (for example) {{details|page|selfref=yes}} instead.
3. The page name was specified, but it contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code {{details|2+2=4}} will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explictly by using 1= before the page name, like this: {{details|1=2+2=4}}.
