Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

When a Wikipedia article is large, it is often written in summary style. This template is used after the heading of the summary, to link to the subtopic article that has been summarized. For Category namespace, please use {{Cat main}} instead.

Use of this template should be restricted to the purposes described above. It is not to be used as a substitute for inline links or {{Further}} template. The latter is used when the section expounds a specific aspect of the topic instead of summarizing its article. For example, in phthalate, the template under the "Endocrine disruptor" section should not be {{Main|Endocrine disruptor}}, because the section specifically deals with phthalate as an endocrine disruptor and not endocrine disruptors in general.

This template should also not be used in lead sections. A lead section is always a summary of its own article, not any other; as such, the only appropriate target for a {{Main}} link in the lead section would be the article itself, which is not useful. {{Broader}} may be appropriate in this case.

Usage

{{Main|Article 1}}

You may also include additional links, up to ten in total:

{{Main |Article 1 |Article 2 | ... |Article 9 |Article 10 }}

For each link, you may optionally specify a link appearance (this is for articles where a piped link would be used).
Note that the extra parameters use a lower case 'L', for example, l1, not 11:

{{Main |Article 1 | ... |Article 10 | l1=Article 1 link appearance | ... | l10=Article 10 link appearance }}

Examples

Code	Result
{{Main|Article}}	Main article: Article
{{Main|Article 1|Article 2|Article 3}}	Main articles: Article 1, Article 2, and Article 3
{{Main|Article 1|Article 2|Article 3|Article 4|Article 5}}	Main articles: Article 1, Article 2, Article 3, Article 4, and Article 5
{{Main|Article|l1=Alternative title}}	Main article: Alternative title
{{Main|(15760) 1992 QB1|l1={{mp|(15760) 1992 QB|1}}}}	Main article: (15760) 1992 QB1

• {{main other}}, to create main space only (article space only) content
