Category

What to type	What it makes	Where it goes

{{cat main|articlename}} links talk edit	The main article for this category is articlename.	Category near top, for when the main article about a category is not the same as the category name.

{{lnt|namespace|page name}} links talk edit	Namespace talk:Page name (edit | namespace | history | links | watch | logs)	Anywhere on page, not in article namespace
{{ml | target_page| anchor_name| optional_label}} links talk edit	{{#invoke: target page |anchor_name}} or {{#invoke: target page |anchor_name|optional label}} This template produces a link in internal link style and also a "hidden external link", to allow it to be found by {{#invoke:Help:Linksearch|Linksearch}}, which, unlike {{#invoke:Special:Whatlinkshere|function}}, can restrict the list of source pages to those linking to a specific section of the target page [1]. Therefore it is especially useful for linking to a section or other anchor.	Anywhere on page
