Template:Storylink

Description

This template is intended for use in fiction sections, allowing for cross-references to the source of the history being discussed, without needing to break the flow of the story or use footnotes. This template creates a link to a story article here on MediaWiki. To create an external storylink to our sister wiki {{#if:GoBots Wiki|GoBots Wiki|Main Page}} use Template:Gbstorylink. To create a storylink to our other sister wiki {{#if:IDW Hasbro Wiki|IDW Hasbro Wiki|Main Page}}, use Template:Istorylink.

In non-fiction sections, it's better to refer to the work of fiction normally, e.g., "The last appearance of Bumblebee's Pretender shell is in the comic 'Dark Creation'."
