I'm making a template, in this template I want to include a link that will send me to its own edit page so that it can be easily accessible from the pages it is included in (very similar to Wikipedia's "view - edit - discuss" links), but I want to do it without extensions. Is it possible? how?

I tried using[[{{PAGENAME}}?action=edit]] but it automatically converts that link to {{PAGENAME}}%26action%3Dedit&action=edit&redlink=1. Using html anchors doesn't seem to work either, they are not parsed.

Just replace `{{{PAGENAME}}}` with the name of the template... – Tgr Aug 05 '17 at 22:39
the result is the same: `name-of-the-template%26action%3Dedit&action=edit&redlink=1` – Miguel Bartelsman Aug 11 '17 at 13:52
