I think what you're looking for is Template:PMID. This will produce an underlined link to the PubMed abstract. The link name will be PubMed.

What you want to enter is {{PMID|5552233}}

Which will give you: PMID 5552233

You may also want to consider using Template:Cite journal.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi. I have just seen your addition of a Japanese document link for the fun Cantonese profanity page and I can see where you're coming from - it is an interesting piece. But your attempt to assist English WP readers with the google translate rather backfires as it is pretty much unintelligible throughout. And, in any event, the original Japanese source is just one more commentary paralleling the article itself. So I wonder if you might consider withdrawing your edit. It does little to assist the English-speaking readers of WP and might best be reserved for WP:jp. Clearly, you're wanting to contribute but it just does not work in this instance. sirlanz 05:08, 27 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!
