English Wikipedia has an article on:
Wikipedia

This template shows a right-floating sister-project box with a link to a Wikipedia page.

The template should be placed inside the section it refers to, immediately after the header. In the default case (a reference to the English Wikipedia) that is immediately following the ==English== header. If there are also images, box templates such as this should appear first. Alternatively, consider linking to Wikipedia in the "Further reading" section using the inline template {{pedia}}.[1]

Parameters

All parameters are optional.

|lang= (optional)
Specifies the Wikimedia language code (see Wiktionary:Wikimedia language codes) of the Wikipedia version to link to.

Specifies the Wikipedia page to link to. By default, this is the same as the name of the current Wiktionary page.
|2= (optional)
Overrides the displayed form of the link.
|section= (optional)
Specifies a section to link on Wikipedia.
|cat= or |category= (optional)
Specifies a category page to link to instead.
|portal= (optional)

|mul= (optional)
Provides a second article to link to.
|mullabel= (optional)
Overrides the displayed form of the second link.
|mulcat= (optional)

Footnotes

  1. ^ Some editors prefer inline linking in all cases, but there is currently no consensus for one approach over the other. See, for example, this 2017 Beer Parlour discussion. As of Feb 2021, {{wikipedia}} had about 225,000 mainspace transclusions compared to about 28,000 for inline {{pedia}}.
