In general when pointing to Alpine Linux downloads stick with the Downloads Page, but if you by any meaning will need to include direct download information, do so by using one of below.

{{Download|alpine}} For standard	{{Download|alpine-mini}} For mini	{{DownloadDev|alpine}} For standard
Download Stable Version Alpine 3.20.3	Download Stable Version Alpine 3.20.3	Download Stable Version Alpine 3.20.3

• {{#latestalp:alpine|url}} will give you latest download url for Alpine Linux Standard:
  

{{#latestalp:alpine|url}}

• {{#latestalp:alpine-mini|url}} will give you latest download url for Alpine Linux mini:
  

{{#latestalp:alpine|url}}

Example:

How do I use a template as a signature?

When you look at your preferences, you see a check box for "raw signature." But the field will only take a certain number of characters. What if you want more?

You will need to create two pages, possibly in your userspace.

   Create the first page (FIRST PAGE)
   Go to your preferences, check "raw signature" and put Template:FIRST PAGE in the signature. Save
   Create a second page (SECOND PAGE) (possibly a sub-page of the first)
   Go back to the first page (FIRST PAGE) and do Template:SECOND PAGE
   Go to the second page (SECOND PAGE) and place the code you wish to have for your signature.

If you don't have this structure, you will still be inserting all your signature code into the raw code wherever your signature is used, because the software will insert "SUBST" in your preferences. You may not mind this, in which case you only need one page. If you want the raw code to only display Template:FIRST PAGE, which looks a lot cleaner, then you need to use the two-page structure.
