Template:Ref FrameXML

Creates a link to online repositories of current and past versions of FrameXML, such as Townlong-Yak.

This template assumes the repository can accept both patch names (such as 8.0.1) and hidden version/hotfix numbers (such as 392901) in a standardized url format to illustrate the differences from one version to the next. This template also assumes the repository can default to live or PTR code when the patch and version are omitted.
