Template:Place Link
SummaryEdit
This template creates a link to the given place page. The format is appropriate for a list of places, and includes the place description and a map link. The place description is taken from the description parameter provided in the place's Place Summary template. For Morrowind, Bloodmoon, Oblivion, Shivering Isles, Skyrim, Dragonborn, and ESO places, a map link is automatically generated unless mapname=none is specified.
