Template:Facebook displays an external link to a page at Facebook, a social networking website. It is intended for use in the external links section of an article.
Usage
[kulemba source]- Unnamed parameters
{{Facebook | user name or number }}{{Facebook | user name or number | Displayed Name }}
- Named parameters
{{Facebook | id= user name or number }}{{Facebook | id= user name or number | name= Displayed Name }}
Examples
[kulemba source]Linking to a profile or page
[kulemba source]In this example, the Facebook user name is zuck and the link text is Mark Zuckerberg:
- https://www.facebook.com/zuck
* {{Facebook | zuck | Mark Zuckerberg }}
In this example, there is a Facebook user number instead of a user name:
- https://www.facebook.com/4
* {{Facebook |id= 4 |name= Mark Zuckerberg }}
On the article about an individual, the display name and the article title will usually be identical and can be omitted. For example, on the article page Facebook, linking to their own Facebook profile could be done with:
Linking to a specific section
[kulemba source]Links to specific sections on a Facebook page used to include the '=' symbol in the URL but no longer need to. Because '=' is a special character in Wikipedia template syntax (which separates a parameter's name from its value), it cannot be used directly in the id. If you want the link to arrive at a specific section, use the newer URL syntax, for example to link directly to the Photos section of a profile, add /photos to the username:
- https://www.facebook.com/zuck/photos
* {{Facebook|zuck/photos|name=Mark Zuckerberg}}
Using Wikidata
[kulemba source]Generally, Wikidata should contain article subjects' Facebook IDs in property (P2013), allowing the ID parameter to be omitted:
* {{Facebook}}* {{Facebook |name=NAME }}
If the Wikidata property is not defined, the output is:
- {{Facebook}} template missing ID and not present in Wikidata.
