Hello. I'm admin for www.dchallofjustice.wikia.com
I need a template that condenses (for example) "[[Superman (JLU)|Superman]]" to something like "{{JLU|Superman}}". eliminating double-typing.
Can anyone help? {{SUBST:User:Dchallofjustice/Sig|16:12,8/10/2012}} 16:12, August 10, 2012 (UTC)
At w:c:dchallofjustice:Template:JLU enter
[[{{{1}}} (JLU)|{{{1}}}]]
Then you can access it as {{JLU|<Superman>}}
A more generalized version could be w:c:dchallofjustice:Template:disambiguated
[[{{{1}}} ({{{2}}})|{{{1}}}]]
Then you could access it as {{disambiguated|<Superman>|<JLU>}}
