[edit]
These test cases have special execution instructions
These test cases depend on the title of the page they are run on. The title of this page is Template:Sfnlink/testcases, but the tests use the shortcut value * for |article= param, which is a wildcard that stands in for the pagename of the associated Talk page. To run these tests, copy the shaded code below, and paste it into the preview window of the indicated talk page.
Test 1 – Paste the following into a new discussion section at Talk:Hermeticism, and hit Preview
Live:
* ((sfnlink|Prophet|2018|article=Hermeticism))
* ((sfnlink|Prophet|2018|article=*))

Sandbox:
* ((sfnlink/sandbox|Prophet|2018|article=Hermeticism))
* ((sfnlink/sandbox|Prophet|2018|article=*))

Cancel out when done.

Expected result: All four link to Hermeticism#CITEREFProphet2018.
