This is not finished yet.

The template

{{#ifexpr:{{#len: {{{url|}}} }} > {{#expr:{{{count|25}}}{{#ifeq:{{{forcecount}}}|1||+{{{tolerance|5}}}}}}}
|[{{{url|}}} {{#sub:{{{url|}}}|0|{{{count|25}}}}}{{{suffix|…}}}]
|{{{url|}}}
}}

Usage

This shortens URLS.
Note: Requires Extension:StringFunctions

Usage

{{ShortURL
|url    =
|count  =
|suffix =
|tolerance  =
|forcecount = (1)
}}
  • count: optional / default: 25
The number of displayed characters (white space / blanks are counted).
It uses a tolerance of 5. So if you define count=10 the string will not be shortened if it is between 1 and 15 characters long.
  • suffix: optional / default: "…" (not ...)
Adds an suffix at the end of the shortened string.
  • tolerance: optional / default: 5
Override the default tolerance.
  • forcecount: optional / default: 0
forcecount=1 overrides the (default) tolerance and forces a strict count.

Examples

{{ShortURL|url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page}}

Result: delete me

{{ShortURL|url=123456789|count=3|suffix=<-The end}}

Result: delete me

{{ShortURL|url=Abiliter Frustro quo Latro pax Ethologus nec ico ops Fabrico innotesco.|count=50}}

Result: delete me

{{ShortURL|url=Abiliter Frustro quo Latro pax Ethologus nec ico ops Fabrico innotesco.|count=500|suffix=<-The end}}

The sring shorter than the count. It will be fully returned without suffix.
Result: delete me

{{ShortURL|url=123456789|count=5}}

The tolerance of 5 returns the string unshortened (9 – 5 = <=5)
Result: delete me

{{ShortURL|url=123456789|count=5|forcecount=yes}}

We force the count so it is shortened.
Result: delete me

{{ShortURL|url=123456789|count=5|tolerance=2}}

We use a tolreance=2.
Result: delete me

{{ShortURL|url=123456789|count=7|tolerance=2}}

We use a tolreance=2 and count=7.
Result: delete me
