Linking to a specific wikipedia page

It would be nice if you could use {{wikipedia|Page_Name}} to link to a page with a different title than the current page. If no {{{1}}} is specified, then it would have to default to the current page's name. I don't know how you can do this {{{1}}} definition check. -- Dionoea 00:27, 17 January 2006 (CET)

I tried to use {{{1|default}}} which is avaliable in wikipedia, but i don't think it works here - {{{1}}} does work though. What I mean is that supporting both {{wikipedia}} and {{wikipedia|AAC}} would be impossible. I'll switch it back to the {{wikipedia|wikipedia_page}} format though. --H2g2bob 00:34, 17 January 2006 (CET)

Great ! thanks -- Dionoea 00:38, 17 January 2006 (CET)

I'm guessing the configuration has changed a bit since then, but I just updated it to accept {{wikipedia}} (for a link to the page name), {{wikipedia|Foobar}} for the "Foobar" article, and {{wikipedia|Foobar|Bazquux}} for the "Foobar" article but labelled "Bazquux".
