Template:Dialog/pipetrick/doc

This template does pipe trick processing on a raw wiki markup string. (See also: Help:Editing#Piped_links)

Usage

edit

Specify the raw wiki markup through the unnamed parameter.

Examples

edit
input output
[[foo|]] [[foo|foo]] OK
[[w:foo (bar)|]] [[w:foo (bar)|foo]] OK
[[:en:b:foo, bar, quux|]] [[:en:b:foo, bar, quux|b:foo]] OK
[[foo, bar (quux)|]] [[foo, bar (quux)|foo, bar]] OK
[[w:foo#bar (quux)|]] [[w:foo#bar (quux)|]] OK

Limitations

edit

For precise simulation of the pipe trick, it shouldn't work in "ref" tags or "gallery" tags, nor with links to sections. As of this writing, the template duplicates the section-link exclusion (see example above), but not the tag exceptions.

Note

edit

This is considered a dialog tool simply because dialog seems the only situation where one would manipulate raw wiki markup text.
