Examples

Linking to a profile or page

In this example, the Facebook user name is zuck and the link text is Mark Zuckerberg:

https://www.facebook.com/Template:Hilite

* {{Facebook | zuck | Mark Zuckerberg }}

• Mark Zuckerberg Facebook par

In this example, there is a Facebook user number instead of a user name:

https://www.facebook.com/Template:Hilite

* {{Facebook |id= 4 |name= Mark Zuckerberg }}

• Mark Zuckerberg Facebook par

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:

https://www.facebook.com/Template:Hilite

* {{Facebook | facebook }}

• Facebook Facebook par

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:

https://www.facebook.com/Template:Hilite

* {{Facebook|zuck/photos|name=Mark Zuckerberg}}

• Mark Zuckerberg Facebook par

Using Wikidata

Generally, Wikidata should contain article subjects' Facebook IDs in property Template:Property, allowing the ID parameter to be omitted:

* {{Facebook}}

* {{Facebook |name=NAME }}

If the Wikidata property is not defined, the output is:
