Template:Warning

This template styles a link like a button, using the deprecated mediawiki.ui.button module. This expands the clickable area and tap target for the link.

Usage

All parameters: {{Clickable button|wikilink|display|color=color|url=url|class=class|link=}}
wikilink: Unnamed first parameter; the title of the page being linked. Brackets are not necessary
display (optional): Optional unnamed second parameter; the text to display. Not needed if the text to display is the wikilink itself
|color= or |class=: Color to display. |color= accepts blue and red, |class= accepts mw-ui-progressive and mw-ui-destructive
|url=: URL to link through the button. If no wikilink/display text is provided, will show the URL, otherwise will show the wikilink/display text
|link=no: Use this parameter set to "no" to display a button without linking to anything
