Templates should therefore be accompanied by <b><a href="/wiki/Documentation" title="Documentation">documentation</a></b> to improve usability. </p><p>Template documentation should explain what a template does and how to use it. It should be simple enough that a user without complete knowledge of the intricacies of template syntax—which includes many experienced contributors who focus their attention elsewhere—can use it correctly. This is especially true in the case of very widely used templates. </p><p>Editors should defer to official <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:POLICIES" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:POLICIES">policies or guidelines</a> when template documentation pages are inconsistent with established community standards and principles. Editors should also avoid "quoting" template documentation pages as though they are policy—including this <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:INFOPAGES" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:INFOPAGES">how-to guide</a>. Template documentation pages can be written without much—if any—debate, as opposed to Wikipedia policies that have been <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:PROPOSAL" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:PROPOSAL">thoroughly vetted by the community</a> (see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Local_consensus" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Local consensus">WP:Local consensus</a> for details). </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc"/> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="What_to_include" data-mw-thread-id="h-What_to_include"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-What_to_include"></span>What to include<span data-mw-comment-end="h-What_to_include"></span></h2></div> <p>Template documentation should cover: </p> <ul><li>The <b>basic purpose</b> of the template: what it does and if it is not immediately obvious, why it needs to be done. If there are other templates with similar names or purposes, it's a good idea to mention those, in order to reduce the chance of the wrong one being used. Include important <b>limitations</b>, such as the lack of <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Navbox_visibility" title="Template:Navbox visibility">Navbox visibility</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span> on the Mobile web site, if a template should only be used for certain countries or time periods, or other things that editors need to know before choosing to use the template.</li> <li>The <b><a href="/wiki/Help:Template#Parameters" title="Help:Template">parameters</a></b> of the template: whether they are numbered, named or optional, and if so, what the default values are and what effect they have. If a parameter can take only a limited set of values or is constrained in any way, for example, if it can only use "yes", "no", or a number, this should be clearly explained.</li> <li><b>Usage examples</b>: specify the exact wikitext that should be used and the result that it produces. The wikitext can be enclosed in a <code class="nowrap" style=""><code>...</code></code> container, to make it clear and <code>easy to copy, like this</code>. If the template can be used in several ways, with or without optional parameters, for example, provide a range of examples. A good way to do so is to transclude the template itself into the documentation a few times (i.e., use live examples), with different parameters each time and list the parameters used in each case. With <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Demo" title="Template:Demo">demo</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span> this can be done without putting the template call twice in the wikitext.</li> <li><b>TemplateData</b> tags: See <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:TemplateData/Tutorial" title="Wikipedia:TemplateData/Tutorial">Wikipedia:TemplateData/Tutorial</a>.</li> <li><b>Related templates</b>: if the template is one of a series of templates, include links to these – in particular, ensure that every template in the series is linked from each of the others, as this makes navigation easier. (A separate navigation template may be useful for this purpose, e.g., <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Protection_templates" title="Template:Protection templates">Protection templates</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span>).</li> <li><b><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Categorization" title="Wikipedia:Categorization">Categories</a></b> where applicable (<a href="/wiki/Help:Interwikimedia_links" class="mw-redirect" title="Help:Interwikimedia links">InterWikimedia links</a> should be listed at <a href="https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/" class="extiw" title="d:">Wikidata</a> – more information at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikidata" title="Wikipedia:Wikidata">Wikipedia:Wikidata</a>). Like the documentation, categories must be listed within a <code class="nowrap" style=""><noinclude>...</noinclude></code> container on a template, or within <code class="nowrap" style=""><includeonly>{{Sandbox other||...}}</includeonly></code> tags if placed on a documentation page. Many template categories are available, see: <a href="/wiki/Category:Wikipedia_templates" title="Category:Wikipedia templates">Category:Wikipedia templates</a> to browse through them.</li></ul> <p>The English Wikipedia is a source of templates for hundreds of other Wikipedias and sister projects. Often, templates are fully self-contained, so the process is easy: The contents are simply copied to a new template page at the other wiki, and everything works. However, on more complex templates, the template may invoke a module, transclude other templates, only work if paired with a separate template, or need particular CSS or JavaScript code to work. In these cases, it is helpful to include a brief list of templates or other code that this one requires, at the end of the documentation. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Where_to_place_it" data-mw-thread-id="h-Where_to_place_it"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Where_to_place_it"></span>Where to place it<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Where_to_place_it"></span></h2></div> <p>When viewing the rendered template page itself (as opposed to its wikicode), what is usually visible right under the title is the rendered template itself, followed by a separate section to display the template's rendered documentation, followed by the categories to which the template belongs. Categories and documentation of any sort on a template page (including <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:TemplateData" title="Wikipedia:TemplateData">TemplateData</a>) should always be enclosed by <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:PARTRANS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:PARTRANS">noinclude tags</a>, so that they do not show up when the template is used on another page. </p><p>The editable <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikicode" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Wikicode">wikicode</a> for the template's documentation is often placed on a separate <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Subpages" title="Wikipedia:Subpages">subpage</a> of the template itself, which is then <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Transclusion" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Transclusion">transcluded</a> at the end of the template page. This separates the often complex template code from the documentation, making the documentation easier to edit and reducing the number of accidental editing errors in the template code. It also allows templates to be <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Protection_policy" title="Wikipedia:Protection policy">protected</a> where necessary, limiting editing access to important templates' code while allowing anyone to edit those templates' documentation. This method is sometimes referred to as the "template-doc page pattern". </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="How_to_create_a_documentation_subpage" data-mw-thread-id="h-How_to_create_a_documentation_subpage"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-How_to_create_a_documentation_subpage"></span>How to create a documentation subpage<span data-mw-comment-end="h-How_to_create_a_documentation_subpage"></span></h2></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Put_documentation_in_the_template" data-mw-thread-id="h-Put_documentation_in_the_template-How_to_create_a_documentation_subpage"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Put_documentation_in_the_template-How_to_create_a_documentation_subpage"></span>Put documentation in the template<span class="anchor" id="Use_Template:Documentation"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="h-Put_documentation_in_the_template-How_to_create_a_documentation_subpage"></span></h3></div> <p>You must put <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Documentation" title="Template:Documentation">documentation</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span> when creating (publishing) a template.

See <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Tlp" class="mw-redirect" title="Template:Tlp">tlp</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span> for similar templates.</li> <li>HTML tags like <code class="nowrap" style=""><ref group="note">...</ref></code> can be easily inserted with <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Tag" title="Template:Tag">tag</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span>. This example is written as <span class="nowrap">{{<a href="/wiki/Template:Tag" title="Template:Tag">tag</a>|ref|params=group="note"}}</span></li> <li>Equals sign <b>=</b> can be inserted with <a href="/wiki/Template:%3D" title="Template:=">{{=}}</a>. For example, <span class="nowrap">{{<a href="/wiki/Template:Citation_needed" title="Template:Citation needed">Citation needed</a>|date=1900-02-29}}</span> is made by <span class="nowrap">{{<a href="/wiki/Template:Tlp" class="mw-redirect" title="Template:Tlp">tlp</a>|Citation needed|date{{=}}1900-02-29}}</span>. Avoid the equivalent notation &#61; which is not easy to read for other editors.</li> <li>Don't forget the single <code class="nowrap" style=""><nowiki /></code> tag: <ul><li><code>[[<nowiki />example]]</code> becomes [[example]],</li> <li>and <code>[<nowiki />http://en.wikipedia.org no link]</code> is [<a class="external free" href="https://en.wikipedia.org">http://en.wikipedia.org</a> no link]. See <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOWIKI" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOWIKI">WP:NOWIKI</a> for the details.</li></ul></li> <li>For a link to a category, use <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Cat" class="mw-redirect" title="Template:Cat">cat</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span>. For example, <code>{{cat|Templates with incorrect parameter syntax}}</code> becomes <a href="/wiki/Category:Templates_with_incorrect_parameter_syntax" title="Category:Templates with incorrect parameter syntax">Category:Templates with incorrect parameter syntax</a>.</li> <li>Use utility templates to quickly build-up documentation , e.g. <span class="nowrap">{{</span><a href="/wiki/Template:Collapsible_option" title="Template:Collapsible option">Collapsible option</a><span class="nowrap">}}</span>. See <a href="/wiki/Category:Documentation_shared_content_templates" title="Category:Documentation shared content templates">Category:Documentation shared content templates</a>.</li> <li>To suppress categorization of the /sandbox and /testcases pages of the template (if they exist), use this code at the bottom of the documentation subpage:</li></ul> <div style="overflow:auto;" class="mw-highlight mw-highlight-lang-wikitext mw-content-ltr" dir="ltr"><pre><span></span><span class="p"><</span><span class="nt">includeonly</span><span class="p">>{{</span><span class="nt">sandbox other</span><span class="p">||{{</span><span class="nt">testcases other</span><span class="p">||</span> <span class="cm"></span> <span class="p">}}}}</</span><span class="nt">includeonly</span><span class="p">></span> </pre></div> <ul><li>When the template is a <i>child infobox</i>, documentation appears broken.
