Template:No redirect

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://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Silence_of_the_Sea&redirect=no ''The Silence of the Sea'']
  • to yield The Silence of the Sea

an editor can type:

• {{No redirect|The Silence of the Sea}}

Both of those will take users directly to the same redirect page and display its pagename as a bluelink.

The second parameter (label) may be useful in discussions on talk pages. For example,

• {{No redirect|The Silence of the Sea|this redirect}}

may appear on a talk page in this context: "For reference, see this redirect."

If there is no page with that name given by the first parameter, the template generates a redlink as for any article name:

• {{No redirect|２５時、赤坂で 3 (25-ji, Akasaka de 3)}} displays as ２５時、赤坂で 3 (25-ji, Akasaka de 3)

Also, if a page is not a redirect, a normal link is displayed:

• {{No redirect|25-ji, Akasaka de 3}} displays as 25-ji, Akasaka de 3
