=== Format link ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
mHatnote._formatLink{link = link, display = display, italicizePage = true, italicizeSection = true}
</syntaxhighlight>
Formats <var>link</var> as a wikilink for display in hatnote templates, with optional display value <var>display</var>. Categories and files are automatically escaped with the [[Help:Colon trick|colon trick]], and links to sections are automatically formatted as ''page § section'', rather than the MediaWiki default of ''page#section''.
If <var>italicizePage</var> is true then the page portion of the link is italicized, and if <var>italicizeSection</var> is true then the section portion of the link is italicized.
;Examples:
: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua" inline>mHatnote._formatLink{link = 'Lion'}</syntaxhighlight> → <nowiki>[[Lion]]</nowiki> → {{format hatnote link|Lion}}
: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua" inline>mHatnote._formatLink{link = 'Lion#Etymology'}</syntaxhighlight> → <nowiki>[[Lion#Etymology|Lion §&nbsp;Etymology]]</nowiki> → {{format hatnote link|Lion#Etymology}}
: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua" inline>mHatnote._formatLink{link = 'Category:Lions'}</syntaxhighlight> → <nowiki>[[:Category:Lions]]</nowiki> → {{format hatnote link|Category:Lions}}
: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua" inline>mHatnote._formatLink{link = 'Lion#Etymology', display = 'Etymology of lion'}</syntaxhighlight> → <nowiki>[[Lion#Etymology|Etymology of lion]]</nowiki> → {{format hatnote link|Lion#Etymology|Etymology of lion}}
: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua" inline>mHatnote._formatLink{link = 'Quo warranto#Philippines', italicizePage = true}</syntaxhighlight> → <nowiki>[[Quo warranto#Philippines|<i>Quo warranto</i> §&nbsp;Philippines]]</nowiki> → {{format hatnote link|Quo warranto#Philippines|italicizepage=true}}
: <syntaxhighlight lang="lua" inline>mHatnote._formatLink{link = 'Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012#Disini v. Secretary of Justice', italicizeSection = true}</syntaxhighlight> → <nowiki>[[Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012#Disini v. Secretary of Justice|Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 §&nbsp;<i>Disini v. Secretary of Justice</i>]]</nowiki> → {{format hatnote link|Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012#Disini v. Secretary of Justice|italicizesection=true}}
=== Format pages ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
mHatnote.formatPages(...)
</syntaxhighlight>
Formats a list of pages using the [[#Format link|_formatLink]] function, and returns the result as an array. For example, the code {{code|mHatnote.formatPages('Lion', 'Category:Lions', 'Lion#Etymology')|lua}} would produce an array like {{code|{'[[Lion]]', '[[:Category:Lions]]', '[[Lion#Etymology|Lion § Etymology]]'}|lua}}.
=== Format page tables ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
mHatnote.formatPageTables(...)
</syntaxhighlight>
Takes a list of page/display tables, formats them with the [[#Format link|_formatLink]] function, and returns the result as an array. Each item in the list must be a table. The first value in the table is the link, and is required. The second value in the table is the display value, and is optional. For example, the code {{code|mHatnote.formatPages({'Lion', 'the Lion article'}, {'Category:Lions'}, {'Lion#Etymology', 'the etymology of lion'})|lua}} would produce an array like {{code|{'[[Lion|the Lion article]]', '[[:Category:Lions]]', '[[Lion#Etymology|the etymology of lion]]'}|lua}}.
