Writing sources
See Template:Man/die.net for an example. A source takes two parameters, the manual section and manual page name, and returns an URL to the manual page.

Template:man handles choosing the default source. Template:man/format actually formats the link and descriptions into a nice-looking link+auxilia in Unix style.
