Template:No redirect/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:No redirect.
It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage

This template provides an easy way to link a redirect page without following the redirect.

{{no redirect|page name|label}}

It accepts two unnamed parameters:

1= (required) the name of the page to link.
2= (optional) the text to be displayed. If this is omitted then the input of the first parameter is used.

Example

Instead of having to copy/paste or type:

[https://species.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Canis_familiaris&redirect=no ''Canis familiaris'']
- to yield Canis familiaris

an editor can type:

''{{No redirect|Canis familiaris}}''
