Template:Edit/doc

This documentation subpage contains instructions, categories, or other information for Template:Edit. [<Edit> Template:Edit]

[⧼Purge⧽ Template:Edit/doc]

The {{edit}} OEIS Wiki utility template adds a small <Edit> link to a page (as you see above).

Usage

To edit the current page (as default):

{{edit}}

or

{{edit|label = link label}}

To edit some other page:

{{edit|full page title}}

or

{{edit|title = full page title}}

or

{{edit|full page title|link label}}

or

{{edit|title = full page title|label = link label}}

or

{{edit|full page title|link label|section id}}

or

{{edit|title = full page title|label = link label|section = section id}}

where

• title (first argument): full page title (namespace prefix:page title) (default is current page);
• label (second argument): link label (optional) (default is <Edit> if page exists, <Create> if page does not exist);
• section (third argument): section id (optional) (nonnegative integer: 0 refers to the top section, i.e. before the first heading). (Unfortunately, using section titles doesn't work!).

Examples

NOTE: the optional : prefix refers to the (Main) namespace.

Examples with existing pages

NOTE: Check the section edit test link at the top right of this page!
