Template:RL

A template to remove redlinks from pages while still keeping them on requested articles. Once a requested article is created it pops on on the Category:Template RL to be removed.

Usage

{{RL|This page does not exist}}

Creates:

This page does not existThis page does not exist

Whereas:

{{RL|Main page}}

creates:

Main page

And would add the page to Category:Template RL to be removed.

For pipelinks, an optional second parameter can be used:

{{RL|This page does not exist|text to be displayed}}

creates:

This page does not existtext to be displayed

whereas

{{RL|Main page|text to be displayed}}

creates:

text to be displayed

This is classed as an expensive parser function. Use of this is to be kept to a minimum.

To assist in locating links to convert back to [[link]] add the following line to your personal CSS:

.rlhighlight { background-color: orange !important; }
