Usage

General case

  • {{IA|identifier|text}}

Identifier and text can be used without naming them. The text argument is optional.

This addresses regular linking.

Specific file in an item

  • {{IA|identifier|text|file=}}

The text argument is optional and implicit.

file is an explicit argument, so you must address it with file=.

Link to a collection's about page

  • {{IA|identifier|text|about=}}

The text argument is optional and implicit.

about is an explicit argument, so you must address it with about=. Set its value to true.

Technically, about can always be appended, but the parameter it adds to the URL is meaningless except when addressing a collection.

Show a thumbnail instead of link text

  • {{IA|identifier|text|thumb=|file=}}

The text argument is optional and implicit. It will set the thumbnail's alt text.

thumb and file are explicit arguments, so you must address them with thumb= and file=.
