[{{{url}}}]
This template will allow you to create a local or interwiki link (such as a link to the history of a page) on a page without having the 
follow the link. This can be used, for example, when internal or interwiki links appear as external links. See Help:URL#URLs on_other Wikimedia projects for more information.
Examples
{{Plain link |url=//www.wikipedia.org}}gives [1]{{Plain link |//www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia}}gives Wikipedia{{Plain link |http://www.wikipedia.org | Wikipedia}}gives Wikipedia
Notes
Do not leave a space before the start of the URL, it confuses the [ URL ]</nowiki> parser.
If you leave the "scheme" (http: or https:) off the start of the URL parameter, the hyperlink will use the current page's protocol.
If your url or link title contains an equals sign = you must use named parameters:
{{ Plainlink | url=http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Equals_sign&oldid=282228764 | name="=" }}gives "="
