Usage
[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]Creates a Google custom search link, which searches the Wikipedia Help desk and its archive. This template takes two unnamed input parameters; both are optional:
- Your search term(s) (optional.) If this parameter is empty, clicking on the resulting link generates a Google search form with an initially blank input field, ready to search the Help desk and its archive pages.
- Link text to display on your wiki page (optional). If this parameter is empty, the template displays a link, with the link text:
- If you specified a search string:
- Search Help desk for: search string
- If you did not specify a search string:
- Search Help desk
- If you specified a search string:
This template is useful for answering questions on the Help desk. A large fraction of questions on the Help desk are repeats of earlier questions, as similar problems keep tripping up successive waves of new users.
Do not use in articles
[ସମ୍ପାଦନା] | Do not use this template in articles (as Google search links are not appropriate in articles). The template is only for talk pages and other process pages (Help desk, WikiProjects, etc.). The template will produce an ugly messagebox warning if you attempt to use it in an article. |

Lineage
[ସମ୍ପାଦନା]This template is a cut-down instance of the more general {{Google custom}} template. You may wish to make similar templates if you need to create repetitive links to other portions of Wikipedia that {{Google custom}} can search. This saves much typing compared to using {{Google custom}} for each link.
