This is a documentation subpage for Template:Documentation (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories, interlanguage links and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
- Description
- This template is used to insert descriptions on template pages.
- Syntax
- Type
<noinclude>{{Documentation}}</noinclude>at the end of the template page.
General usage
On the Template page
Template code<includeonly>Any categories to be inserted into articles by the template</includeonly><noinclude>
{{Documentation}}</noinclude>
Note that, depending on the template, you may need to add a clear or complete a table/div just before {{Documentation}} is inserted (within the noinclude tags).
The line break is also useful as it helps prevent the documentation template "running into" previous code.
On the Template/doc page
;Description
:This template is used to do something.
;Syntax
:Type <code>{{T|Templatename}}</code> somewhere.
;Sample output
:<code><nowiki>{{Templatename|foo}}</nowiki></code> gives...
:{{Templatename|foo}}
Use any or all of the above description/syntax/sample output sections. You may also want to add "see also" or further usage information sections.
Note that the above example also uses the Template:T and Template:T/piece templates.
