Template data

Parameter text is empty The template provides a uniform way to provide basic information about the use of a template. See: [[Commons:Template documentation]] and [[Commons:TemplateData]]. Template parameters This template prefers inline formatting of parameters. Parameter Description Type Status name (param) 1 parameter name (similarly 2, 3, …). Note that if all of the parameters beginning with a number are removed from the template, the usage notes will state "The template takes no parameters." String optional aliases (param) 1aliases An alias is an alternative name for the parameter that may be used instead of (not in addition to) the primary name. Name the aliases and separate them by "'''/'''"; e.g.'''d/desc/description'''. <small>''(→ see also on mediawiki: [[mw:Extension:TemplateData#Param object|overview]] or [[mw:Help:TemplateData#aliases|details]])''</small> String optional autovalue (param) 1av Dynamically-generated default value in wikitext, such as today's date or the editing user's name; this will often involve wikitext substitution, such as "subst:CURRENTYEAR". Default not specified String optional description (param) 1d 1d-en 1description 1description-en description of the parameter (similarly 2d, 3d, …) String optional TemplateData description (param) 1d-td 1d-td-en 1description-td 1description-td-en description of the parameter (similarly 2d-td, 3d-td, …) for the TemplateData extension which does not accept Wiki-markup. If this parameter is omitted, 1d is used. You can always override the defaults specifically for TemplateData by appending "-td" to the parameter-name. You can specify a language by appending your language-code. E.g. "3d-td-en" would be the English translation of the description of parameter 3 which will be used in TemplateData. String optional default (param) 1def 1def-td 1default Fixed default value for the parameter (similarly "2def", "3def", …) Unknown optional label (param) 1label 1label-en 1label-td 1label-td-en A (very) brief name for the parameter. Try to keep under 20-ish characters. "1label-de" would be the German translation of this label. String optional set (param) 1set Label and ID of a set in one. Multiple parameters can be grouped in a set, if either none or all of them must be supplied. Try to keep under 20-ish characters. <small>''(→ see also on mediawiki: [[mw:Extension:TemplateData#TemplateData object|overview]])''</small> String optional status (param) 1stat 1stat-td 1deprecated 1required <strong class="error"><span class="scribunto-error" id="mw-scribunto-error-1c22a891">Lua error in Module:LangSwitch at line 135: attempt to concatenate a nil value.</span></strong>: required <strong class="error"><span class="scribunto-error" id="mw-scribunto-error-1c22a891">Lua error in Module LangSwitch at line 135: attempt to concatenate a nil value.</span></strong> optional <strong class="error"><span class="scribunto-error" id="mw-scribunto-error-1c22a891">Lua error in Module LangSwitch at line 135: attempt to concatenate a nil value.</span></strong> optional- <strong class="error"><span class="scribunto-error" id="mw-scribunto-error-1c22a891">Lua error in Module:LangSwitch at line 135: attempt to concatenate a nil value.</span></strong> deprecated <strong class="error"><span class="scribunto-error" id="mw-scribunto-error-1c22a891">Lua error in Module LangSwitch at line 135: attempt to concatenate a nil value.</span></strong> Suggested values required suggested optional optional- deprecated Default optional String optional suggested (param) 1sv Suggested values, separated by "/" Default not specified Unknown optional type (param) 1type The type of the parameter, for (soft) type hinting. Please refer to the [https://github.com/wikimedia/mediawiki-extensions-TemplateData/blob/master/Specification.md#34-type list of possible values]. <small>''(→ see also on mediawiki: [[mw:Extension:TemplateData#Param object|overview]] or [[mw:Help:TemplateData#type|details]])''</small> String optional description (template) desc desc-en description description-en desc-td description-td description of what the template does String required docsub-page docsub-page “page” parameter from {{Documentation subpage}} Default {{NAMESPACE}}:{{BASEPAGENAME}} Page name optional example example Example value for one single (unnamed) parameter; a possible value (e.g. for the [[Template:catseealso]]) can be: '''lakes'''. If there are more than one parameter you have to separate them with '''{{!}}'''; e.g '''1=lakes{{!}}for=for more informations'''.<br>There is also <code>example2</code> for a second example. String optional example-result example-value Example use of the template with the value of the <code>example</code> parameter; so according to the example above the value of <code>example-value</code> parameter will be '''{{catseealso|lakes}}'''; with two parameters it will be '''{{catseealso|lakes|for=for more informations}}'''. On the doc-page of the template it will render this code and show the result in a box with the title "renders as:" under the example code. If you keep <code>example-value</code> parameter empty, it will render {{catseealso|lakes}} by default.<br>There is also <code>example2-value</code> for a second example. Default {{TEMPLATENAME|&lt;example&gt;}} String optional I18n Data File i18n-data-file The tabular data file on Wikimedia Commons in the Data namespace. The “I18n/” prefix and the “.tab” file extension is added automatically if its missing. Default I18n/{{{name}}}.tab Auto value I18n/{{subst:ROOTPAGENAME}}.tab String optional translation info i18n-desc additional info about the localization String optional mediawiki-message i18n-mediawiki-msg When using “mediawiki-msg” as method, optionally put the name of the message here.

Unknown deprecated must be subst mustbesubst Set to '''yes''' (or any value) if the template must be substituted. This puts "subst:" into the template example under [[#Usage|Usage]]-section.
