Sending a reader to a search page can be an unpleasant experience, if there is no corresponding page for that subject. Editors have a choice between two methods to prevent this negative experience:
- Manually check each project for a relevant page, if missing, then set argument to "no" (e.g.,
|wikt=n
) - Use "automatic mode", which only displays a sister project by default if sitelink exists (e.g.,
|auto=yes
)
Note that {{Sister project auto}} is equivalent to {{Sister project links|auto=yes}}
.
