This is a template for including links to Wikipedia in the "External Links" section of an article. It can take three parameters:

entry, which specifies the title of the entry linked to (parameter name may be omitted);
- Note that for technical reasons, this may not contain spaces; use underscores instead.
name, which specifies the name of the entry as it will appear in the link text (default: name of the current article);
lang, which specifies the language code of the Wikipedia edition to link to (default: en).

You type:

{{LinkWikipedia|Conway's_Game_of_Life|name=Life}}

You see:

...{{LinkWikipedia|Conway's_Game_of_Life|name=Life|nobullet=nobullet}}...
