Template:Portal-inline is used to produce an inline link to a portal that is supported by print and mobile versions of Wikipedia pages.

Differences between {{Portal}} and {{Portal-inline}}

{{Portal}} creates a list of one or more portal links within an accessible navigation region. It is hidden in printer and mobile view. This is useful, for example, in an article's "See also" section.

{{Portal-inline}} creates one portal link with no accessibility context. It is visible in printer and mobile view. This is useful, for example, if making a mid-sentence link on a talk page, or if there is an alternative list structure in a "See also" section.

Usage

  • {{Portal-inline|<name> }}
  • {{Portal-inline|<name> [|size= <size> ] [|text= <text> ] [|short= <anything> ]}}

Everything inside square brackets is optional, do not include the square brackets.

Parameters

  • 1 — required; The first unnamed/positional parameter is the name of the portal.
  • size— optional; Specify |size=tiny to show a 16×16 image instead of the usual size.
  • text— optional; Specify |text=(name) for a different associated name to appear.
  • short— optional; Specify |short=anything to remove portal from the output.
  • redlinks— optional; Specify |redlinks=yes to show the portal if it is redlinked.

Image

The portal image name is found using Module:Portal. Please see Module:Portal#Image for instructions on how to add, update, or remove an image.

Error tracking

The tracking categories are not applied if any of the following is true:

  1. Tracking is specially disabled for that usage. This is done by setting the optional parameter |tracking= to any the following values: no, n, false
  2. the template is used on a page in any of these namespaces: Talk, User, User talk, Wikipedia talk, File talk, Template talk, Category talk, Portal talk, Draft, Draft talk, Module talk
