Template:Ut

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Usage

This utility is a typing saver for use on talk pages to link another user's talk page.

This template takes a one or two arguments... {{ Ut | Arg-1 | Arg-2 }} of which,
     The first must be an official 'User name', (not signature or Nickname)
     and the second being a Pipetrick name (if you don't want the default display of User Name)
     and expands these as follows:

1) Given a single  arg. as {{ ut | UserName }} expands to [[User talk: UserName| UserName]]
           (Arg-1 repeats as the default, and hides the phrase 'User Talk:' displaying 'User Name' as a link).

2) Given a double  arg. as {{ ut | UserName |Mr. Fudge }} expands to [[User talk: UserName| Mr. Fudge]]
           (Arg-2 masks the default, and hides the phrase      'User Talk:' displaying 'Mr. Fudge' as a link).
   This allows embedding a username link to his/her talk while reading as the user's name, which aids clarity, yet accesses their talk.
   Pretty handy for cross-posting, or remembering to notify them, that said discussion is 'Hot' with their involvement in said arguments made or cited.
