| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Facebook. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| The external links guideline recommends avoiding links to Facebook unless the profile is an official account, "controlled by the subject (organization or individual person) of the Wikipedia article" and when the links to Facebook "provide the reader with unique content and are not prominently linked from other official websites". Wikipedia is not a directory for helping Facebook users find pages on Facebook. |

Usage
Linking to a profile or Page
In this example, the Facebook user account is zuck and the description in the link is Mark Zuckerberg:
{{Facebook|zuck|Mark Zuckerberg}}- Mark Zuckerberg on FacebookScript error: No such module "EditAtWikidata".
In this example, there's an ID instead of user name:
{{Facebook |id=4 |name=Mark Zuckerberg}}- Mark Zuckerberg on FacebookScript error: No such module "EditAtWikidata".
On the article about an individual, the display name and the article title will usually be identical and can be omitted. For example, on the article page Facebook, linking to their own Facebook profile could be done with:
{{Facebook|facebook}}- Template:PAGENAMEBASE on FacebookScript error: No such module "EditAtWikidata".
Generally, Wikidata should contain article subjects' Facebook IDs in property P2013, allowing the ID parameter to be omitted:
{{Facebook}}{{Facebook |name=NAME }}
Linking to a specific section
Links to specific sections on a Facebook page used to include the '=' symbol in the URL but no longer need to. Because '=' is a special character in Wikipedia template syntax (which separates a parameter's name from its value), it cannot be used directly in the id. If you want the link to arrive at a specific section, use the newer URL syntax, for example to link directly to the Photos section of a profile, add /photos to the username:
{{Facebook|zuck/photos|name=Mark Zuckerberg}}- Mark Zuckerberg on FacebookScript error: No such module "EditAtWikidata".
