When a [[Wikipedia:What is an article|Wikipedia article]] is large, it is often rewritten in [[Wikipedia:summary style|summary style]]. This [[Wikipedia:Template messages|template]] is used after the heading of the summary, to link to the sub-article that has been (or will be) summarised. This template can also be used in the [[Help:Category|Category namespace]], but the preferred template for categories is '''{{tl|Cat main}}'''.

This template can also be used in articles leads when an article is not the "main" article for its subject. When there are multiple articles, distinct enough to warrant separate articles, but not enough to be very separate subjects. One to be the main article describing the topic, and the others avoiding unnecessary duplication of the main article. A good example would be geography articles where two terms have somewhat different meanings or "contexts", but refer to roughly the same geographic area, e.g. [[Balkans]] and [[Southeast Europe]]. The Balkans article is the main article, the Southeast Europe article doesn't try to be a duplicate of the Balkans article by having much info on History, natural resources, etc, it leaves that to the Balkans article. This can be thought of as a halfway point between having fully separate articles, and heaving a redirect.

This template is '''not''' to be used as a substitute for inline links or as a "[[Template:See also|see also]]". Its usage should be restricted to the purposes described hereinbefore.

===Usage===

<pre>{{Main
|Article 1
}}</pre>

You may also include additional links, up to ten in total:
<pre>{{Main
|Article 1
|Article 2
|Article 3
|Article 4
|Article 5
|Article 6
|Article 7
|Article 8
|Article 9
|Article 10
}}</pre>

For each link, you may optionally specify a link appearance (this is for articles where a piped link would be used). Note that the extra parameters use a lower case 'L', for example, l1, <u>not</u> 11:
<pre>{{Main
|Article 1
|Article 2
|Article 3
|Article 4
|Article 5
|Article 6
|Article 7
|Article 8
|Article 9
|Article 10
|l1=Article 1 link appearance
|l2=Article 2 link appearance
|l3=Article 3 link appearance
|l4=Article 4 link appearance
|l5=Article 5 link appearance
|l6=Article 6 link appearance
|l7=Article 7 link appearance
|l8=Article 8 link appearance
|l9=Article 9 link appearance
|l10=Article 10 link appearance
}}</pre>
