ਇਹ ਫਰਮਾ ਹੇਠ ਲਿਖੇ ਲੂਆ ਨੂੰ ਵਰਤਦਾ ਹੈ:

The following pages are sought, in order:

An explicit page chosen by an editor (if provided)
A sitelink in Wikidata (if exists)
A search page on the sister project

Sending a reader to a search page can be an unpleasant experience, if there is no corresponding page for that subject. Editors have a choice between two methods to prevent this negative experience:

Manually check each project for a relevant page, if missing, then set argument to "no" (e.g., |wikt=n)
Use "automatic mode", which only displays a sister project by default if sitelink exists (e.g., |auto=yes)

Note that {{Sister project auto}} is equivalent to {{Sister project links|auto=yes}}.

Usage

{{Sister project links   |1= |display= |auto= |collapsible= |position= |style=      |wikt= |c= |n= |q= |s= |b= |v=    |voy= |species= |species_author= |iw= |d= |m= |mw=    |commonscat=   |author=   |cookbook=  }}

Example with all parameters and all projects displayed (see right):

{{Sister project links   |1= |display= |auto= |collapsible= |position= |style=   |wikt= |c= |n= |q= |s= |b= |v=  |voy=yes |species=yes |species_author=John |iw=en |d=yes |m=yes |mw=yes  |commonscat= |author= |cookbook=  }}

Default display

For any project parameter, there are four acceptable values:

"yes" means find a reasonable link for the sister project (wikidata, or default back to search)
"no" means exclude this sister project: no link
a string means link to the page with whose title is that string
blank or missing means use the default
- If |auto=yes, default is either use wikidata (if present), or drop the link
- If |auto=no, if project is in the "yes" list above, either use wikidata or search. Otherwise drop the link.
