Template:Main article/doc

This template uses Lua:

Module:Main

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Main article.
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

When a finiki article is large, it is often rewritten in summary style. This template is used after the heading of the summary, to link to the sub-article that has been (or will be) summarised. This template can also be used in the Category namespace, but the preferred template for categories is {{Cat main}}.

This template is not to be used as a substitute for inline links or as a "see also". Its usage should be restricted to the purpose described hereinbefore.

Usage

{{Main
|Article 1
}}

You may also include additional links, up to ten in total:

|Article 1
|Article 2
|Article 3
|Article 4
|Article 5
|Article 6
|Article 7

|Article 9

For each link, you may optionally specify a link appearance (this is for articles where a piped link would be used). Note that the extra parameters use a lower case 'L', eg. l1 not 11:
