Template:MDW
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- This version is common to all sites except Mediawiki
- Note: Hidden content.
- This is a register macro that might alternatively be stated as {{#ifeq:{{SITENAME}}|Wikversity|{{void}}|mw:}}
- where 'mw:' is the definition on all other English language sister projects. It's purpose is to simplify local output code and avoid precisely that sort of #ifeq: code statement in working templates.
- Locally on Mediawiki (The different version), this template has the effect of replacing the full url version [[mw:Some page name|Some page name]] with a local wikilink version which will then reveal bad links (redlinks) if a page does not exist.
- This is used in a number of templates as a sub-template for that reason, especially those needing interwiki portability.
This different method of implementation has instead a hardcoded different fixed value on and off Wikipedia when accessed by the identical template and so allows portable template coding.
