link is mandatory, and text is optional

  • {{DAB lkpl| link = Abbott, Hon. Sir Joseph Palmer}}
produces Abbott, Hon. Sir Joseph Palmer that links to The Dictionary of Australasian Biography/Abbott, Hon. Sir Joseph Palmer
  • {{DAB lkpl| link = Abbott, Hon. Sir Joseph Palmer | text = Sir Joseph Abbott }}
produces Sir Joseph Abbott that links to The Dictionary of Australasian Biography/Abbott, Hon. Sir Joseph Palmer
