Template:RSN link/doc

This template displays a link to a discussion or request for comment at the reliable sources noticeboard or its archives.

Usage

This template accepts three unnamed parameters:

1. Archive number, e.g. 123 from Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 123
   • This parameter is optional. Leave this blank if the discussion is not archived, and is at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard.
2. Section heading of the discussion, e.g. Discussion name from Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 1#Discussion name
3. Link text
   • This parameter is optional, and is set to the section heading of the discussion by default.

This template also accepts two optional named parameters:

• rfc: Set this to y if the discussion is a request for comment.
  • If set, this parameter adds an icon to the left of the link.
• active: Set this to y if the discussion is currently active.
  • If set, this parameter italicizes the link.
