Item names such as [[Stopsvalinn]] have multicolor names in game. For ease of use, call [[Template:Qud text]] instead of manually changing each letter using the Color Template. If referring to an item or character in its page, use [[Template:name]] to automatically make the colored version of the item. If referring to other items and characters with a link, use [[Template: | Item names such as [[Stopsvalinn]] have multicolor names in game.

If referring to other items and characters with a link, you should use favilinks. There are three favilink templates available: | |||
* [[Template:Favilink]] takes the name of an item or mutation and links to it. | |||
* [[Template:Favilink page]] takes the name of a page and links to it. | |||
* [[Template:Favilink id]] is useful when you wish to specifically link to an object by its blueprint ID, a mutation by its mutation ID, and so on. | |||
The differences between these favilink types can be relevant when objects or mutations share the same name, for example, the {{favilink id|NightVision}} implant and the {{favilink id|Mutation:DarkVision}} mutation: | |||
* <code><nowiki>{{favilink|Night Vision}}</nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki>{{favilink id|NightVision}}</nowiki></code>, and <code><nowiki>{{favilink page|Night Vision (implant)}}</nowiki></code> all point to the {{favilink id|NightVision}} implant. | |||
* <code><nowiki>{{favilink page|Night Vision}}</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>{{favilink id|Mutation:DarkVision}}</nowiki></code> both point to the {{favilink id|Mutation:DarkVision}} mutation. | |||
Note that use of favilink should follow [[#Links | the general rules for linking]]. | Note that use of favilink should follow [[#Links | the general rules for linking]]. | ||
