This template is used on approximately 109,000 pages.

Module:GAN link (sandbox)

Usage[edit]

{{Ganl}} is a shortcut for {{GAN link}}

The template will show the article's name alongside a link to its GAN (defaults to "/GA1"). If the GAN has started, it will be linked as "nom". If not, a "start" link with the preloaded GA stuff will show instead.

Put the name in the first parameter. It will strip out double and triple apostrophes.
- {{GAN link|Saints Row 2 (mobile)}} → Saints Row 2 (mobile) (nom)
- {{GAN link|''Saints Row 2'' (mobile)}} → Saints Row 2 (mobile) (nom)

Alternatively, the first parameter can be used for the name, and the second parameter for how the link should be displayed
- {{GAN link|Saints Row 2 (mobile)}} → Saints Row 2 (mobile) (nom)
- {{GAN link|Saints Row 2 (mobile)|''Saints Row 2'' (mobile)}} → Saints Row 2 (mobile) (nom)

|#= sets the GAN number
- {{GAN link|Jumping Flash!|#=2}} → Jumping Flash! (start) (Talk:Jumping Flash!/GAN2)

|icon= adds a GAN icon
- {{GAN link|Jumping Flash!|icon=y}} → Jumping Flash! (nom)

|i= sets whether the original input is a fully italicized name
- {{GAN link|Jumping Flash!|i=y}} → Jumping Flash! (nom)
- {{GAN link|Saints Row 2 (mobile)|i=y}} → Saints Row 2 (mobile) (nom) (note that "(mobile)" is italicized too with this option)
