Other Wiktionary linking templates

Wiktionary link templates

Template	Alias	Explanation
{{Wiktionary}}	{{wikt}}	Makes a box.
{{Wiktionary pipe}}	{{wtp}}	Ditto. Allows a piped link.
{{See Wiktionary}}		A disambiguation hatnote type. Useful if the article title is a generic name, but the content differs from it. For example, Tryout is an article about a journal, and this template is used to link to "tryout" page in Wiktionary.
{{Wiktionary-inline}}	{{wti}}	Can be used in the "External links" section, by making a one-line navigator. Not inline in the usual sense.
{{Wiktionary redirect}}	{{wtr}}	Makes a soft redirect.
{{Wiktionary category 2}}	{{wtc}}	Similar to {{wikt}}, but links to a category in Wiktionary.
{{Wiktionary category}}		Ditto, more verbose type.
{{Linktext}}		Turns each of consecutive words into an Wiktionary link, or any other interwiki / interlang link. Example: {{linktext|táłtłʼááh|adijiłii}}  →  táłtłʼááh adijiłii
{{wt}}		Links to a language-specific section of a Wiktionary entry. Deprecated (discussion log).
{{wikt-lang}}		Applies a language tag to a word, and links to that language's section of the Wiktionary entry on the word, much like the {{m}} and {{l}} templates on Wiktionary. For instance, {{wikt-lang|en|be|was}} yields was, and is equivalent to {{lang|en|[[wikt:be#English|was]]}}.

Moving a non-encyclopedic entry to Wiktionary:

Markup:

• [[wikt:粘菌|'myxomycete' in Japanese]] → 'myxomycete' in Japanese (You can use a pipe as usual.)
• [[wikt:curcubeu|]] → curcubeu (You can hide "wikt:" by a pipe trick.)
