Not to be confused with Template:Book or Template:Books.

Function

This template links to books created via Wikipedia:Books.

Usage

The {{Wikipedia books}} template accepts three optional parameters for linking to books.

• The first parameter is the name of the book within the Wikipedia:Books project. If omitted the template will use the name of the page.
• The second parameter is the text to use for the wikilink. If omitted the template will either use the name of the book given as the first parameter or the name of the page.
• The |position= parameter accepts one keyword, left, to float the box to the left instead of to the right.

Examples:

# of books	What you write	What you get
One book plain	{{Wikipedia books|Chemical elements (sorted by number)}}
One book renamed	{{Wikipedia books |Chemical elements (sorted by number) |Chemical elements }}
Three books plain	{{Wikipedia books |1=Chemistry |3=Chemical elements (sorted by number) |5=Chemical elements (sorted alphabetically) }}
Three books renamed	{{Wikipedia books |1=Chemistry |2=Chemistry |3=Chemical elements (sorted by number) |4=Chemical Elements (#) |5=Chemical elements (sorted alphabetically) |6=Chemical Elements (A–Z) }}

The template supports up to five books, following the parameter numbering pattern shown above.
