Template:Wikiname/doc

Template:Wikiname is a template used for the display of the wiki's name, like so:. It is different from the  magic word, which simply produces "", with no italicization of  nor a link to Project:About.

This template is used on meta pages and other non-mainspace pages to modularize (i.e., create a variable whose value is changed in only one place) a properly formatted link to the site. This is helpful in the transfer of such meta and non-mainspace pages to other communities.

Similarly related to this function, Project space articles should always be linked using  rather than.
