 | This template is used in system messages. Changes to it can cause immediate changes to the Bharatpedia user interface. To avoid large-scale disruption, any changes should first be tested in this template's /sandbox or /testcases subpage, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. Please discuss any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
 | This template can only be edited by administrators because it is transcluded onto one or more cascade-protected pages. |
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Plainlinks. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template will allow you to create a local or interwiki link (such as a link to the history of a page) on a page without having the 
icon following the link. This can be used, for example, when internal or interwiki links appear as external links. See Help:URL#URLs on other Bharatmedia projects for more information.
Caution
You can use {{fullurl}} magicword to generate URLs to Bharatpedia pages.
Also, this template is not suitable for genuinely external links, since it suppresses displaying the external link small icon (); for external links, use {{URL}}
Examples
{{Plain link|url=https://www.bharatpedia.org}}gives [1]{{Plain link|https://www.bharatpedia.org Bharatpedia}}gives Bharatpedia{{Plain link|https://www.Bharatpedia.org | Bharatpedia}}gives Bharatpedia{{Plain link|https://www.google.co.uk|Google}}gives Google
Note that if your url or link title contains an equals sign = you must use named parameters:
{{Plain link|url=https://en.bharatpedia.org/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764|name="=" }}gives "="
Redirects
To be more concise, you can use {{scp}} or {{plnk}} and numbers as parameter names, e.g.:
{{scp|1=https://en.bharatpedia.org/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764|2="="}}gives the same "="{{plnk|1=https://en.bharatpedia.org/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764|2="="}}gives the same "="
