Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

{{Main}} is used below section titles to explain where the main article on the subject is.

Usage

{{Main|Article 1|...|''Article 15''}}

Up to 15 parameters are permitted: only the first is mandatory.
The list is dynamically generated so that the word "and" is always placed between the final two entries.
If more than 15 entries are supplied, a message will be displayed pointing out the problem.

NB: no newlines are permitted else the article links will be broken.

Example
