Template:Selfref

Usage
is a template that is used to mark pieces of text and links that wouldn't make sense on mirrors of this site: see Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Avoid self-references.

In most cases, is used to create a disambiguation link to a page in the "New Zealand:" namespace from article space; for instance, Objectivity (journalism) has a selfref link '  '. When using in this way, use the following format:

If the text of the notice contains any = characters, you have to escape it like this:

(This is needed with all templates, not just .) When using  in this way, the text will be indented slightly and put in italics.

can also be used for any other text which shouldn't appear in mirrors (the mirrors can remove it by blanking in their copy, although not all of them do), without reformatting; to use it like this, place an extra vertical bar at the end of the template inclusion, like this:

This template should not be substituted.
