Look up wiktionary pipe in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

Shortcut
  • {{wtpTemplate:Wtp}}

Makes a box to link to Wiktionary just like {{Wiktionary}}, but this template works just like piped linking:

Contents

  • 1 Usage
    • 1.1 Examples
  • 2 Location
  • 3 See also

Usage

{{Wiktionary pipe|actual link|displayed term}}

Examples

Look up tree in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
{{Wiktionary pipe|tree#English|tree}}
Look up πᾶν (pan) or πᾶς (pas) in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
{{Wiktionary pipe|πᾶν|πᾶν (pan)|πᾶς|πᾶς (pas)}}
Look up shishiodoshi in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
{{Wiktionary pipe|鹿威し|shishiodoshi}}

Leave out the "displayed term" to use the "actual link" in its place:

Look up square bracket or [ ] in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
{{Wiktionary pipe|square bracket||Unsupported titles/Square brackets|<nowiki>[&nbsp;]</nowiki>}}

Location

If using a large, graphical template produces odd layout problems, like the excessive white space shown on the right of this screenshot, then switch to a different sister template.

If placing this template in a section all by itself, put on a line all by itself, without indentation or bullets, like so:

  • {{Wiktionary pipe|five|two and two}} →
Look up two and two in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

☒N Do not place this template in a section containing columns.

This template should normally be placed at the top of the ==External links== section at the end of an article, if the article has a section for external links. If no such section exists, then please place it at the top of the last section in the article.

On disambiguation pages, this template should be listed above other text, but below any cleanup templates, images, infoboxes or navboxes.

See Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects#Where to place links for more information and alternatives.

Template Alias Explanation
{{Wiktionary}} {{wikt}} Makes a box.
{{Wiktionary pipe}} {{wtp}} Ditto. Allows a piped link.
{{See Wiktionary}} A disambiguation hatnote type. Useful if the article title is a generic name, but the content differs from it. For example, Tryout is an article about a journal, and this template is used to link to "tryout" page in Wiktionary.
{{Wiktionary-inline}} {{wti}} Can be used in the "External links" section, by making a one-line navigator. Not inline in the usual sense.
{{Wiktionary redirect}} {{wtr}} Makes a soft redirect.
{{Wiktionary category 2}} {{wtc}} Similar to {{wikt}}, but links to a category in Wiktionary.
{{Wiktionary category}} Ditto, more verbose type.
{{Linktext}} Turns each of consecutive words into an Wiktionary link, or any other interwiki / interlang link. Example: {{linktext|táłtłʼááh|adijiłii}}  →  táłtłʼááh adijiłii
{{wikt-lang}} Applies a language tag to a word, and links to that language's section of the Wiktionary entry on the word, much like the {{m}} and {{l}} templates on Wiktionary. For instance, {{wikt-lang|en|be|was}} yields was, and is equivalent to {{lang|en|[[wikt:be#English|was]]}}.

Moving a non-encyclopedic entry to Wiktionary:

  • {{Transwikied to Wiktionary}}, {{Transwiki to Wiktionary Finished}}: Pasted at the top of the talk page by admins.

Markup:

  • [[wikt:ᐁᕕᖃ]] → wikt:ᐁᕕᖃ
  • [[wikt:粘菌|'myxomycete' in Japanese]] → 'myxomycete' in Japanese (You can use a pipe as usual.)
  • [[wikt:curcubeu|]] → curcubeu (You can hide "wikt:" by a pipe trick.)

Wiktionary-related userboxes:

  • {{User Wiktionary}}: "This user has a page on Wiktionary" box.
  • {{User admin Wiktionary}}: "This user is an administrator on Wiktionary" box.
