Template:WikiData template link/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:WikiData template link. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
The Wikidata template link template is a simple macro template used to display a Wikidata template name as a link surrounded by braces, thus showing the Wikidata template name as code rather than actually invoking it. Its primary use is in instruction and documentation where it is used to refer to a Wikidata template by name without invoking it.
Usage
{{dtl|Ping project}} generates {{d:Ping project}}
