Template talk:From Camerapedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Usage

To credit Camerapedia in general, add {{From Camerapedia}} to the article.

To credit a particular article titled XXXX within Camerapedia, add {{From Camerapedia|XXXX}} to the article. (For example, {{From Camerapedia|Pentax}}.) If the title of the article includes one or more spaces, use underline(s) instead; for example, {{From Camerapedia|Guess_focusing}}.

[edit] Why the awkwardness?

Because Camerapedia does not (yet) appear within the Interwiki map, the template cannot (yet) be rewritten to create such simple links as [[Camerapedia:Fuji|Fuji]], and instead has to create the slightly awkward [http://camerapedia.org/wiki/Fuji Fuji]. There's no handy pipe character ("|"), and there's a certain degree of potential ambiguity: thus the need for underline(s).
