This template is used on composer and lyricist pages to output a link to the Wikipedia article for that individual. It may simply be used without any variables or, if the spelling of the page title of the Wikipedia article differs from the CPDL page, a single variable should be used to specify the Wikipedia article title. In this latter case the name displayed will be that of the page title instead of the variable informed.
This template creates a link from a CPDL page to a related article on Wikipedia. It is optimized for biography articles (composers, lyricists etc.) but can be used on other pages too.


;Examples:
===Syntax===
{{tl|WikipediaLink|1{{=}}<article title on WP>|2{{=}}<text to be displayed on the link>|lang{{=}}<2-digit language code>}}
:or, without numbered parameters:
{{tl|WikipediaLink|<article title on WP>|<text to be displayed on the link>|lang{{=}}<2-digit language code>}}
 
Note that all parameters are optional:
*{{para|1}} is necessary only when the Wikipedia article's title is different from the title on CPDL. If not specified, the CPDL's page title will be used instead.
*{{para|2}} is used to customize the link text. If not specified, the CPDL's page title will be used instead. It should be specified if the Wikipedia page has a title different from CPDL's page – even slightly different.
*{{para|lang}} is useful when there isn't an article on the English Wikipedia yet, but a Wikipedia article is available in another language. <!--Besides linking to the Wikipedia article, it also offers a Google Translation of that article into English.-->
 
===Examples===
