Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)

The External template adds links to the RuneScape Wiki, Old School RuneScape Wiki, the RuneScape Classic Wiki, Meta RuneScape Wiki, and Wikipedia beside the "Discussion" tab above an article's title. The links are not added to the mobile skin.

Usage

External can be used with either unnamed parameters or named parameters. Parameter order does not matter - the order the buttons are shown in will always be RuneScape, then RuneScape Classic, then Meta RuneScape, then Wikipedia.

If linking to another wiki with an identical page title, specify the wiki's shorthand name in unnamed parameters:

{{External|rs|os|rsc|meta|wp}}

where

• rs creates a link to the RuneScape Wiki
• os creates a link to the Old School RuneScape Wiki
• rsc creates a link to the RuneScape Classic Wiki
• meta creates a link to Meta RuneScape Wiki
• wp creates a link to Wikipedia
  • Note that the Wikipedia link should not be used for content pages, but for pages specifically about real-world subjects, such as Jagex.

If the page title on the other wiki is not the same, use the above as named parameters, with the value being the correct name.

{{External|rs=Page title|os=Page title|rsc=Page title|meta=Page title|wp=Page title}}

Examples

An example of this template in use can be found at the top of the page, where the buttons link to Template:DW/External on RuneScape and RuneScape Classic. It is produced by the following:

{{External|rs|rsc}}

To link to specific pages on RuneScape Classic and Wikipedia, but not on Meta RuneScape Wiki:

{{External|rsc=Draynor Village|meta|wp=Barack Obama}}
