 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Cuegloss. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
The {{cuegloss}} template is used to easily create a link from a word or phrase in any article to a corresponding entry in the Glossary of cue sports terms, a stand-alone glossary list article. Example: stakehorse.
Using {{cuegloss|stakehorse}} is a more concise way of doing [[Glossary of cue sports terms#stakehorse|stakehorse]]. and provides a mouse-hover tooltip indicating that the link goes to a glossary entry (this does not interfere with page previews or navigation popups). The template takes one or two parameters, as detail below.
The template makes proper use of the <dfn> HTML element (as documented at the parent meta-template, {{glossary link}}). For linking between entries inside the glossary itself, use {{gli}} ({{glossary link internal}}), which does not use that element (it is reserved for term entries in the glossary). It can also be used in other articles where the same term is linked twice because of article length (<dfn> should only be used once per term per page, as it means "this is the defining instance of this term on this page").
