This template produces a series of links to various search interfaces. It is used in AfD discussions to help find additional reference material for the articles being discussed. It additionally includes video game topic searches. An optional |linksearch=
parameter can be used when discussing websites and sources, such as, at WT:VGRS. This template should not be used in articles themselves - see Wikipedia:EL#Links normally to be avoided.
How this works
සංස්කරණයTemplate:Find sources dynamically selects a list of relevant search links based on the WikiProjects listed on an article's talk page. The default search link array is {{find general sources}}. A full list of domain-specific link groups are available in the see also section of this document.
Domain links override
සංස්කරණයTemplate:Find sources respects the domain (aka search-domain) parameter (e.g. domain=general), which can be set by editors in {{talk header}} or {{find sources}} to override the automated selection.
Usage
සංස්කරණයThe first parameter is the main search term, which will be treated as a literal string if multi-part (e.g. Albert Einstein
will be searched as the single string "Albert Einstein" not "Albert" and "Einstein" separately).
Optional subsequent parameters (up to 4) are additional search terms. They can be enclosed in double quotation marks, preceded by an unspaced -
(hyphen) to exclude them from the search results, or both (e.g. -"Marilyn Monroe"
to exclude matches containing the phrase "Marilyn Monroe", but not either name by itself, from the search results). You do not need to add -wikipedia
, as the template automatically does this for you. Also, there is no need to add words in plural form unless irregular, as the search interface will match (for example) billiards as well given a search term of billiard.
If no parameters are given, the name of the current subpage is used as the search string. If the current subpage has a disambiguator in parentheses, e.g. Happy Birthday (Stevie Wonder song), then the main part of the page name will be quoted and the disambiguation text will follow, like "Happy Birthday" Stevie Wonder song
. You can specify that another title be used by using the title
parameter.
