If it's a simple link to a subject's official website, please use {{official website}} instead.
For inter-wiki links, that is, links to any other wiki, please use {{iwx}}.
Method 1
The first method is completely free-form. You can type in just about anything, and the template will both bullet it and make sure that external links do not display a symbol to the top right, like this.
Input
{{elx|This is completely free-form.}}
Output
- This is completely free-form.
Input
{{elx|An [http://www.mdtheatreguide.com/2013/11/a-quick-5-with-michael-goldsmith/ interview with '''Michael Goldsmith'''] at [http://www.mdtheatreguide.com/ MD Theatre Guide]}}
Output
Method 2
The second is a more automated template for links to sites outside of the scope of MediaWiki. page url defines the url of the page to which you want to link; page name, which defaults at {{PAGENAME}} — or whatever the page the template's on is called — is for the title of that page; and, optionally, website url and website name do the same for but for the website.
Input
{{elx|page url=http://www.ibdb.com/person.php?id=494668|page name=Arthur Darvill|website url=http://www.ibdb.com/|website name=Internet Broadway Database}}
Output
Doctor Who website
If you set website name to "Doctor Who website", it will produce:
The specification of website url is not generally necessary for the Doctor Who website, as it defaults to the current website. This feature is also available for doctorwho.tv, Torchwood website and Class website.
If linking to an episode page, on the most current Doctor Who website, {{bbc.co.uk}} should be used instead. Instructions here.
