 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Further interlanguage link. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used to link to articles containing further information on a topic, where English Wikipedia does not yet have an article, but another language Wikipedia does. It looks like this:
It is typically used at the top of a section, when the topic of that section is covered in more detail by a page on another Wikipedia. It combines the features of {{Further}} and {{Interlanguage link}}, and provides one of the chief advantages of red links by pointing out a topic where English Wikipedia doesn't yet have an article, while pointing out where such information is readily available.
Once the article on English Wikipedia is created, the interwiki links are dropped, and the template renders like a regular "Further" link. If the main link is blue because the English page name is a redirect and not an article, the interwiki links are retained, and the blue link is tagged as a redirect.
