The default behaviour of this template is to present a string "Wikisource has original text related to this article:" with a link to a page on Wikisource with the same name as the Wikipedia page.

This template takes up to two optional parameters which will alter the page name used to link to Wikisource.

  • {{Wikisource|alternative page link|different name, if desired}}

{{Wikisource|1=Leaves of Grass/Book XVII|2=name for Leaves of Grass}}

produces


{{Wikisource|1=Leaves of Grass/Book XVII#To You|2=name for Leaves of Grass To You}}

produces


  • You cannot use square brackets ("[" and "]") in the first parameter.

{{Wikisource|1=Leaves of Grass/Book XVII#Year of Meteors [1859-60]|2=name for Leaves of Grass Year of Meteors [1859-60]}}

produces


To resolve this use "[" and "]" instead:
{{Wikisource|1=Leaves of Grass/Book XVII#Year of Meteors [1859-60]|2=name for Leaves of Grass Year of Meteors [1859-60]}}

produces


For foreign language Wikisources use: {{Wikisourcelang}}

example:

{{Wikisourcelang|fr|Du contrat social}}
