Bug #: 29926
Summary: request a delink or debracket magic word
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Templates
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Problem:
In template tags, parameter values sometimes are linked and sometimes are not.
Inserting those values into double brackets (in template code) may conduce to
four-bracketed links. In the other hand, not inserting them into brackets may
conduce to 0-bracketed not-linked titles.
Proposal:
Add a new "delink" function that eliminates internal-linking double brackets.
* {{delink:[[Title]]}} &arr; Title
* {{delink:Title}} &arr; Title
* {{delink:[external link]}} &arr; [external link]
And possibly a "link" counterpart.
* {{link: [[foo]] }} &arr; [[foo]]
* {{link: foo }} &arr; [[foo]]
* {{link: [external] }} &arr; [external]
It should also be very useful for parameter comparison:
{{#ifeq: {{delink: {{{1}}} }} |my title|yes|no}}
An alternative (or additional) option to help bypass the problem could be to
introduce a overall wikitext conversion of four brackets into two, wherever it
occurs:
* [[[[ &arr; [[
* ]]]] &arr; ]]
