This template is used to link to articles containing further information on a topic. It looks like this:

{{further|Article}}

It is typically used at the top of a section, when the topic of that section is covered in more detail by another page. It is useful for implementing [[wikipedia:WP:SUMMARY|summary style]]. The corresponding template for use on category pages is {{tl|Cat more}}.

== Usage ==
{{see|WP:SUMMARYHATNOTE}}
; One article:
:{{tlx|further|PAGE1}} → {{further|PAGE1}}
; More than one article:
:{{tlx|further|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}} → {{further|PAGE1|PAGE2|PAGE3}}
; With a topic:
:{{tlx|further|<nowiki>topic=TOPIC</nowiki>|PAGE1|PAGE2}} → {{further|topic=TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2}}
; All parameters:
:{{tlx|further|<nowiki>topic=TOPIC</nowiki>|PAGE1|PAGE2#SECTION|<nowiki>selfref=yes</nowiki>|<nowiki>category=no</nowiki>|<nowiki>label1=LABEL1</nowiki>}} → {{further|topic=TOPIC|PAGE1|PAGE2#SECTION|selfref=yes|category=no|label1=LABEL1}}

== Parameters ==

This template accepts the following parameters:
* <code>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>3</code>, ... - the pages to link to. At least one page name is required. Categories and files are automatically escaped with the [[wikipedia:Help:Colon trick|colon trick]], and links to sections are automatically formatted as ''page § section'', rather than the MediaWiki default of ''page#section''.
* <code>label1</code>, <code>label2</code>, <code>label3</code> ... alternative output labels for the corresponding linked pages. Aliases "<code>label ''N''</code>" (with a space) and "<code>l''N''</code>" (short) are also available.
* <code>topic</code> - the name of the topic
* <code>selfref</code> - if set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", adds the CSS class "selfref". This is used to denote self-references to Wikipedia. See [[Template:Selfref]] for more information.
* <code>category</code> - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category ([[:Category:Hatnote templates with errors]]). This only has an effect if the first positional parameter (the page to link to) is omitted.

== Interwiki links ==

To link to articles on foreign language Wikipedias, use [[H:IL|interwiki links]], prefixing the page name in the foreign Wikipedia with the required interwiki language code:

; Basic interwiki links to articles in Spanish and German:
:{{tlx|further|es:PÁGINA1|de:SEITE2}} → {{further|es:PÁGINA1|de:SEITE2}}

; Multiple interwiki links with language names:
Note that you can use the ''TOPIC'' and ''LABEL'' parameters in combination to produce this effect:
: {{tlx|Further|topic{{=}}Eero Heinonen, in|de:Eero Heinonen|es:Eero Heinonen|fi:Eero Heinonen|l1{{=}}German|l2{{=}}Spanish|l3{{=}}Finnish}} → {{Further|topic=Eero Heinonen, in|de:Eero Heinonen|es:Eero Heinonen|fi:Eero Heinonen|l1=German|l2=Spanish|l3=Finnish}}

Template {{tl|Further ill}} can produce similar links, but in a format more like that of {{tl|interlanguage link}}.

== Errors ==

If no page names are supplied, the template will output the following message:
* {{further|category=no}}

If you see this error message, it is for one of four reasons:
# No parameters were specified (the template code was <code><nowiki>{{further}}</nowiki></code>). Please use <code><nowiki>{{further|</nowiki>''page''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> instead.
# Some parameters were specified, but no page names were included. For example, the template text <code><nowiki>{{further|selfref=yes}}</nowiki></code> will produce this error. Please use (for example) <code><nowiki>{{further|</nowiki>''page''<nowiki>|selfref=yes}}</nowiki></code> instead.
# A page name was specified, but it contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code <code><nowiki>{{further|1+1=2|2+2=4}}</nowiki></code> will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explicitly by using <code>1=</code>, <code>2</code>, etc., before the page name, like this: <code><nowiki>{{further|1=1+1=2|2=2+2=4}}</nowiki></code>.
# You tried to access the module directly by using <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:(module name)|further|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. Use of #invoke in this way has been disabled for performance reasons. Please use <code><nowiki>{{(module name)|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> instead.

If you see this error message and are unsure of what to do, please post a message on [[wikipedia:WP:HD|the help desk]], and someone should be able to help you.

Pages that contain this error message are tracked in [[:Category:Hatnote templates with errors]].
