Purpose
Some articles are broken out from larger articles as a means of conserving space, easing readability and providing clarity. In those cases, it is proper to link back to the original article from which the subject article is introduced. While behaving similarly to the function of categories, the use of the {{main}} template is to recognize the direct relationship with an article of broader scope.
Usage
To link to a "main article" on a topic, use {{main|The other article}}, replacing 'the other article' with the actual name of the main page.
Example
{{main|Saeder-Krupp}}
Will display:
- Main article: Saeder-Krupp
(The example can be seen here.)
