This is a template used to generate external links to AllGame.

Usage

{{AllGame |326 |The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past}}

Instructions

  1. Search AllGame for the game title you want, and click on the correct link to go to that game's page.
  2. The page URL should look like this:

    http://allgame.com/game.php?id=######

    where "######" indicates a number. (If it doesn't, there should be a message under the games's title which says "wrong Result? more matches HERE"; click on this link and reselect the desired game from the list.)
  3. Copy ONLY that number. Add the following text to the External links section:

    {{AllGame |###### |Title}}

    where

    ###### is the number you've copied, and
    Title is the title of the game (default is the article's name.)

Example

  1. For The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, the AllGame page URL is:

    http://allgame.com/game.php?id=326

  2. Copy "326" and add it to this template, i.e.:

    {{AllGame |326 |The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past}}

  3. This will display as:

    The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past[dead link] at AllGame
