This is an imdb-like template, used for Wikipedia:Template messages/Links to an entry at the Handbook of Texas.
Usage edit
The template requires one argument, a page id; ideally, the template should also include the article name. If the URL for the Handbook of Texas entry looks like:

- {{Handbook of Texas | id=fau14 | name=Stephen Fuller Austin}}
as can be seen here:
- Stephen Fuller Austin from the Handbook of Texas Online
If the URL for the Handbook of Texas entry omits the ID and looks like:

The ID is not case-sensitive.
If <name> is omitted, the pagename will be used.
