Template:Elc
[[{1}]]
This formats an example wikilink to show how it would be entered in wiki markup. The first parameter is the link destination. E.g. {elc|Cookie} renders as [[Cookie]], the wiki markup for the wikilink Cookie. If a second parameter is given, a piped link is shown. E.g. {elc|Cookie|Biscuit} renders as [[Cookie|Biscuit]], the markup for the wikilink Biscuit.
A third parameter, if supplied, is included as a suffix to demonstrate blended links; {elc|Cookie|s} produces [[Cookie]]s, the wiki markup for Cookies.
The short name {elc} ("example link, code") is chosen to be similar to the {tlc} template which produces similar output, but for template links.
