Template:Interconnected template/doc

This is the {{interconnected template}} message box. {{interconnected}} redirects here and can be used as alternative name for this template.

This template can be put at the top of the documentation for any templates that are tightly interconnected, i.e., having complex interrelations, with less obvious dependencies, combining different templates, modules, configs, or other pages, and so on.

This template's syntax is actually relatively simple.

This template adds templates to Category:Interconnected templates.

When this template is placed on a template's /doc page, please add this within <includeonly> tags so it only gets visible on the template page. The full code on the top of the /doc subpage can look like this:

{{documentation subpage}}
<includeonly>{{interconnected}}</includeonly>

Parameters

  • |1= – name of a related template, module, config, or other page related to this one to be listed; add brackets if wikilinks are desired.
  • |2= .. |4= : name of additional related pages

Note: for internal documentation purposes, an unlimited number of unnamed parameters identifying related pages may be specified, but only the first four will be displayed.
