Template:Linked/doc

This template can be used to simplify the inclusion of links in templates where users may use several different forms of syntax. It accepts a parameter and returns it linked, unless it already is. Works both with wikilinks and with http links.

It is primarily of use in templates and should not be used in articles directly.

This template can be substituted.
