This template temporarily displays a link to a non-Vietnamese Wikipedia article, while the corresponding English-language Wikipedia article is lacking ("a red link"). The red link is explicitly shown, followed by the non-Vietnamese link. Hovering over the non-Vietnamese link will display the name of the article on the non-Vietnamese Wikipedia. Once the Vietnamese article is created, the non-Vietnamese link will not be shown.
The template name ill stands for InterLanguage Link.
The template accepts two or three unnamed parameters:
When article names would be the same in Vietnamese and foreign language Wikipedia:
{{ill|Sigmund Jakobsen|no}}
When article names are different in Vietnamese and foreign language Wikipedia:
{{ill|Parlichevo|bg|Пърличево}}
When the Vietnamese article is created, the other language link won't be shown:
{{ill|Truyện kể Genji|ja|源氏物語}}
In some cases the Vietnamese Wikipedia might use a piped link:
[[Rangel, Angola|Rangel]]
The template can create the same link shown above by using a fourth parameter:
{{ill|Rangel, Angola|lt=Rangel|pt|Rangel (Angola)}}
Alternatively the named parameter lt
(for link text) can be used:
{{ill|Rangel, Angola|lt=Rangel|pt|Rangel (Angola)}}
Note Do not use the {{!}} template to create a piped link, since the interwiki links will not then disappear when the Vietnamese article exists: {{ill|pt|Rangel, Angola{{!}}Rangel|Rangel (Angola)}} is not equivalent to {{ill|pt|Rangel, Angola|Rangel (Angola)|Rangel}}.
