}}

name සංස්කරණය

By providing only the required page name (including namespace), the module will use Module:GetShortDescription to look for an explicit {{short description}} in that page, but if not found, will try to fetch the wikidata description. This is equivalent to stating |prefer=explicit; see #prefer (below). If a description is found, it will be appended to a link created for the named page in the style expected for the likes of MOS:SEEALSO. If no description is found, the link will be created but no extra information will be appended – unless the extensive following parameters are employed.

Any foreign language (i.e. not en) text supplied to this module or retrieved by Module:GetShortDescription may be appropriately formatted, in accordance with MOS:OTHERLANG, via the parameters for Module:Lang; see #Foreign language text (below).

As this module is responsible for the use of all features of Module:GetShortDescription; all the parameters for that module are available through this module; see #Module:GetShortDescription parameters (below).

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=The Partisan }}

Result: The Partisan

This and the following example song titles should be double quoted per MOS:POPMUSIC; that will be handled by #quote (below), and you will see the parameters in use where appropriate from here on.

display සංස්කරණය

Providing a value for |display= will format the piped link with a display string:

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=Jump (Every Little Thing song) |display=Jump |quote=yes }}

Result: "Jump"

quote සංස්කරණය

Stating |quote=yes will double quote the link:

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=The Partisan |quote=yes }}

Result: "The Partisan"

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=Jump (Every Little Thing song) |display=Jump |quote=yes }}

Result: "Jump"

abbr සංස්කරණය

Providing a value for |abbr= will append the link with the provided parenthesized abbreviation with <abbr>...</abbr> semantic markup:

Markup:

{{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques |display=World Underwater Federation |abbr=CMAS }}

Result: World Underwater Federation (CMAS)

An optional |abbr_title= may be provided:

Markup:

{{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques |display=World Underwater Federation |abbr=CMAS |abbr_title=Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques }}

Result: World Underwater Federation (CMAS)

template_link සංස්කරණය

If the linked page is in the Template namespace; the link will be formatted in the manner expected by {{template link}}:

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=Template:Annotated link }}

Result: {{Annotated link}} – template used to display and annotate a wikilink using the short description of the linked page

Stating |template_link=code will display the link formatted with <code>...</code>:

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=Template:Annotated link |template_link=code }}

Result: {{Annotated link}} – template used to display and annotate a wikilink using the short description of the linked page

Stating |template_link=no will disable this special link formatting and the ignorance of the above-mentioned parameters:

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=Template:Annotated link |template_link=no |display=Annotated link }}

Result: Annotated link – template used to display and annotate a wikilink using the short description of the linked page

aka සංස්කරණය

Providing a value for |aka= will append the link (and |abbr= if provided) with a useful alternative name:

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=The Partisan |quote=yes |aka=La Complainte du partisan }}

Result: "The Partisan", also known as La Complainte du partisan

Markup:

{{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques |display=World Underwater Federation |abbr=CMAS |aka=Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques }}

Result: World Underwater Federation (CMAS), also known as Confédération Mondiale des Activités Subaquatiques

These and some following examples contain foreign language text that, per MOS:OTHERLANG, should be appropriately displayed and declared via HTML markup as being of that language; this will be handled by various parameters; see #Foreign language text (below) for full details, and you will see the parameters in use where appropriate from here on.

wedge සංස්කරණය

Providing a value for |wedge= will append the link (and |abbr= and |aka= in that order if either or both is provided) with any extra details felt suitable:

Markup:

{{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=The Partisan |quote=yes |wedge=from the album ''[[Songs from a Room]]'' |aka=La Complainte du partisan |aka_lang=fr }}

Result: "The Partisan", also known as La Complainte du partisan, from the album Songs from a Room

For complementary foreign language params; see #Foreign language text (below).

dash සංස්කරණය

For list consistency, per MOS:LISTFORMAT; by providing a value for |dash=; the dash between the short description and the preceding text may be exchanged for a suitable alternative:

Markup: {{#invoke:Annotated link|main |name=The Partisan |quote=yes |dash=, }}

Result: "The Partisan"

desc_first_letter_case සංස්කරණය

Short descriptions on en Wikipedia should be formatted with an uppercase first letter, but the typical application of this module will require the first character to be lowercase. By default; this module will ensure all the short descriptions retrieved by Module:GetShortDescription are transformed to start with a lowercase first letter, but this may be overridden if required using |desc_first_letter_case=upper or |desc_first_letter_case=lower.

prefix_parentheses සංස්කරණය

Sometimes date ranges in short descriptions are included in a suffixed parenthetical, per WP:SDDATES e.g. for Jimmy Wales: "Co-founder of Wikipedia (born 1966)".

However when listing people in disambiguation pages per MOS:DABPEOPLE, birth and death dates in parentheticals should precede the comma, as in "Jimmy Wales (born 1966), co-founder of Wikipedia".

If the optional parameter |prefix_parentheses=y is provided, this behavior will be performed, so any suffixed parenthetical text will be moved to before the dash (or comma) separator.

Note that current consensus is to not use {{annotated link}} for disambiguation pages; see Template:Annotated link/doc#Usage.

space_cat සංස්කරණය

In the event that a short description with no spaces is retrieved and displayed; pages transcluding the annotation will be added to Category:Pages displaying short descriptions with no spaces via Module:Annotated link for interested editors to monitor for potential issues. Potential issues might include: garbage keyboard mashings, a typo of "none" while attempting to disable an explicit {{short description}} or some misunderstanding on the part of an editor placing one.

If the transclusion on a page in this category is checked and it is determined to be okay; stating a value for |space_cat= in the invocation will disable the categorisation. This should only be done on a case by cases basis, as opposed to as a default, or no potentially inappropriate annotations will be categorised; i.e. allow this parameter to be set in individual transclusions of templates which invoke this module, like {{annotated link}}, rather than in the template code.

Module:GetShortDescription parameters සංස්කරණය

ප්‍රධාන පිටුව: Module:GetShortDescription/doc

The value provided with |name= is passed through this module to Module:GetShortDescription where it is also required; the expectations of this module are described in #name (above). Module:GetShortDescription uses the value to find a {{short description}} in the named page, or various alternatives depending on parameter values.

only සංස්කරණය

Providing a value for |only= will limit the search to being only for the stated description. If no description is found, the result will be an empty string, unless a fallback is provided; see #fallback (below).

Stating |only=explicit will limit the search to only short descriptions set by use of {{short description}} on the searched page.

Stating |only=wikidata will limit the search to only wikidata descriptions.

prefer සංස්කරණය

Providing a value for |prefer= will initiate the search for the stated description, but try for the alternative if none is found. If no description is found, the result will be an empty string, unless a fallback is provided; see #fallback (below).

State |prefer=explicit to use the explicit short description if available, or try for the wikidata description if not.

State |prefer=wikidata to use the wikidata description if available, or try for an explicit short description if not.

fallback සංස්කරණය

If a |fallback= value is provided, and no description is found by the expressed route, the appended description will be the stated fallback value.

Foreign language text සංස්කරණය

Module:GetShortDescription may return a foreign language (i.e. not en) wikidata description; editor discretion determines if that should be displayed. If it is displayed; it will be in accordance with MOS:OTHERLANG, by Module:Lang (the module powering {{lang}}). The appropriate language code will be set automatically, but all other parameters of {{lang}} are available to affect the formatting of the returned description:

If the editor determines that {{lang}} formatting is not appropriate; it may be disabled with |lang_no=yes. The following {{lang}} formatting parameters are optional, so there is no off-switch required.

link_lang සංස්කරණය

aka_lang සංස්කරණය

wedge_lang සංස්කරණය
