Actually, when I extended the template to handle up to 3 text page links with a default behavior that every link would be in italics, except those to pages whose titles begin with "Psalm", I also added the facility to specify explicitly whether each (or all) links would be in italics or not ... but I simply did not include it in the documentation.  I'm fixing that now.

Extending this template

Would it be possible for someone to extend this template to handle more than one text page, so that the code on this page displays correctly? Some score pages require links to up to 3 different text pages so the template should be able to handle that. TIA! --Bobnotts talk 22:39, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Done. -- Chucktalk Giffen 05:09, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks Chuck - that's perfect. --Bobnotts talk 14:28, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Italics

Could someone please alter this template to allow the user to choose whether or not to italicise the link to the text page, as is possible with Template:LnkTxt? TIA --Bobnotts talk 08:24, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

 Help 

Actually, when I extended the template to handle up to 3 text page links with a default behavior that every link would be in italics, except those to pages whose titles begin with "Psalm", I also added the facility to specify explicitly whether each (or all) links would be in italics or not ... but I simply did not include it in the documentation. I'm fixing that now.

I do think that, generally, Latin titles should be italicized and others not. It would be good to adopt some sort of guidelines, for the sake of uniformity.
