youtube channel

Usage

• {{ytc|ID|linktext}}
• {{ytc|c=|channel=|user=|tab=|linktext=|name=}}

Use either channel or user or c (which the template checks for in that order), depending on which appears in the URL. Note that linktext overrides name.

Examples

• {{ytc|channel/UC1Pwa4nFvIPbtYVLcBGDpjA|Angelina Jordan Official}} ⇒ Angelina Jordan Official^↗
• {{ytc|channel=UC1Pwa4nFvIPbtYVLcBGDpjA|name=Angelina Jordan Official}} ⇒ Angelina Jordan Official^↗

These two are exactly identical.

Bad calls

• {{ytc}} ⇒ [1]^↗
• {{ytc|}} ⇒ [2]^↗

• {{ytc}} – link to a YouTube channel (including specific tabs, like "About" or "Videos")
• {{ytp}} – link to a YouTube playlist
• {{yts}} – link to YouTube search results
• {{ytv}} – link to a YouTube video

These templates are all "special cases" of the more general template (which they all call):

• {{ytl}} – link to any page at YouTube

And that template in turn calls {{YTURL}} and {{xl}} to form the link itself.
