 * [[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. The table below shows how one might link to one page versus the other:
-* <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.
+{| class="wikitable"
-* <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 mutations linked with [[Template:Favilink id]] must be prefixed with <code><nowiki>Mutation:</nowiki></code> to distinguish them from object blueprint IDs.
