* Simple [[T:DAB|dab terms]] are automatically removed from the display text of the unlinked fields mentioned so far. In more complex scenarios, custom display text can be specified by adding "<nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki>" after the unlinked page name, followed by the display text. Note that any pipes ("|") that appear in the display text should also be replaced with "<nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki>". For example, to produce [[2 entertain|2|entertain]], you would type "<tt><nowiki>2 entertain{{!}}2{{!}}entertain</nowiki></tt>". | * Simple [[T:DAB|dab terms]] are automatically removed from the display text of the unlinked fields mentioned so far.
