Template:DISPLAYTITLE is a behaviour switch for MediaWiki code. Use {{DISPLAYTITLE:}} to format the title of an article without changing the address of the page. All or part of a page title can be shown in italics, with subscript and superscript, or any formatting required by article guidelines.
Include "| link title" to create a stylish link title. If sections have the same title, add a number to link to any but the first. #Example section 3 goes to the third section named "Example section". You can use the pipe and retype the section title to display the text without the # symbol.
This template is primarily for users who want to DISPLAYTITLE multiple pages their userspace, while at the same time transcluding pages. The transcluded DISPLAYSTYLEs will generate errors because their own names/namespaces conflict with those of the including pages.
HTML can also be useful outside articles, such as for formatting within templates. For assistance with using Cascading Style Sheets on Wikipedia, see Help:Cascading Style Sheets . Some tags that resemble HTML are actually MediaWiki parser and extension tags , and so are actually wiki markup.
Text formatting in citations should follow, consistently within an article, an established citation style or system. Options include either of Wikipedia's own template-based Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2, and any other well-recognized citation system. Parameters in the citation templates should be accurate.
The markup can be converted programmatically for display into, for example, HTML, PDF or Rich Text Format. A markup language is a text-encoding system which specifies the structure and formatting of a document and potentially the relationships among its parts. [ 1 ]
format: File format of the work referred to by url; for example: DOC or XLS; displayed in parentheses after title. (For media format, use type.) HTML is implied and should not be specified. PDF is auto-detected and should not be specified. Does not change the external link icon (except for PDF).
The page name is normally the same as the displayed title, shown on the title line, near the top of the page, in a large font size. The displayed title can, however, be altered slightly from the page name without affecting things much; see Changing the displayed title below.
