All you need to do to create a floating box Wikipedia link is insert {{Wikipedia}} at the beginning of a page, and the template will do the rest for you.
If needed, you can specify the name of the Wikipedia article that is to be linked to, and if need be, the title of the link text to be shown. All of the following formats are valid:
- {{Wikipedia}} - Automatically takes the name from the current LyricWiki page
- {{Wikipedia|Pain of Salvation}} - Used when the Wikipedia Article name and the link text you wish to display are the same, but perhaps different than the name of the current LyricWiki page
- {{Wikipedia|Article=Pain of Salvation}} - Same as the above example
- {{Wikipedia|Muse (band)|Muse}} - Used when the Wikipedia Article name and the link text you wish to display are different. The second division [Muse (band)] tells what the name of the Wikipedia Article is, while the third division [Muse] tells what link text should be displayed.
- {{Wikipedia|Article=Muse (band)|Title=Muse}} Same as the above example
To link to a non-English Wikipedia page, place the two-letter country/language code followed by a colon before the article name.
- {{Wikipedia|De:U2|U2 (German Wiki)}} - This would go to the German edition of Wikipedia's page for U2. Notice that the link states that it is to a non-English version of Wikipedia.
