Vorlage:Asbox/Doku

Vorlage:Template doc page viewed directly This is the asbox or article stub box meta template.

It is used to create (but preferably not without consulting WP:WSS) or standardise existing article stub box templates.

Usage

This is a standard template for creating standard stub templates. It supports most, if not all, stub template styles in place prior to 26 September 2007 (UTC).

Parameters

Default parameter 1

Default parameter 1 overrides the sort order in the stub category. It is unlikely to be used much, as stub categories should be small and will often be sorted correctly by PAGENAME or DEFAULTSORT.

Default parameter 2-4

The standard implementation passes four default parameters through to this template to allow for future expansion.

icon or image

If the image is called with an icon template icon is set to the name of the template plus any arguments (seperated with {{!}} qv not | . If the image is called explicitly image is the name of the image :- pix will likely be required as well, the default value for pix is 40.

pix

The size of the image, only required if image is set and is a size other than 40. Defensive programming suggests setting the value of pix even if it is 40.

subject and qualifier

This subject article qualifier is a stub...

Examples:

• This geography article about a place in Rohan is a stub...
• This elementary physics article is a stub...
• This article about Rudolph the Red-nosed reindeer is a stub...

category

The stub category the articles should go in. Note the template will only include articles in the stub category, unless the parameter tempsort is set in which case templates (in particular the stub template itself) will also be included - sorted with the value of " " (space) followed by tempsort.

tempsort

If exists the template will be put in it's own category sorted as " " (space) followed by tempsort.

category1

An optional second stub category the articles should go in. Note the template will only include articles in the stub category, unless the parameter tempsort1 is set in which case templates (in particular the stub template itself) will also be included - sorted with the value of " " (space) followed by tempsort1.

tempsort1

If exists the template will be put in it's own second category sorted as " " (space) followed by tempsort1.
