| | This page is about the '''Interwiki Task Force''', a group of users who are willing to seek out and help wikis that wish to interwiki link to one-another for more in depth information on a specific topic. This group specifically wishes to implement an interwiki linking system using the sidebar (like languages links) for space for links that may be too minor for inclusion even in the <code>External Links</code> section of an article. Not all wikis need to implement the system in order to receive help or participate. | | This page is about the '''Interwiki Task Force''', a group of users who are willing to seek out and help wikis that wish to interwiki link to one-another for more in depth information on a specific topic.

| |
| − | The code for this system is based off of one from Wikimedia that uses JavaScript to move links from the page's content to the side bar. It comes with some default CSS that individual wikis can customize as they see fit.

| |
| − | #Level 2
| |
| − | #* <code>Template:PL:____</code> where the blank is filled in by the intended wiki's code goes, along with the Wiki's name if no caption is give.
| |
| − | #Level 3
| |
| − | #* {{tem|Projectlink}} creates a template link to <code>Template:PL:____</code> when a specific wiki code is asked for
| |
| − | #Level 4
| |
| − | #* {{tem|Projectlinks}} gathers all the links and requested wikis.
