e.g., {{Wikipedia link|Martha_Jefferson}} will give you something you can use.

You are encouraged to classify why this article is linked, using the "whylink" parameter with one of the values below. E.g., "|whylink=outsidearea".

outsidearea

If you use this option, there is a required parameter "linktext", the value of which will usually be the first required parameter without the underscores.
