Differently uses some templates that facilitate linking to the timeline's pages.
The template {{dl|}}
links to pages with (Differently). For example, {{dl|Italy}}
links to the page Italy (Differently), hiding the parentheses.
The template {{dla|}}
links to pages with (Differently) but shows a different text in the link. For example, {{dla|Italy|Kingdom of Italy}}
links to the page Italy (Differently), but shows Kingdom of Italy instead, in the same way [[Italy (Differently)|Kingdom of Italy]] would do.
The template {{df|}}
links to countries with a flag miniature on the left. For example, {{df|Rhomania}}
generates Rhomania.
The template {{dfa|}}
links to countries with a flag miniature on the left but shows a different text in the link. For example {{dfa|Rhomania|Constantinople}}
generates Constantinople.
