Template:Unicode blocks/doc

Usage

A list of all the Unicode blocks, formatted as a table.

Template parameters

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Collapse state	state	Specify if the list should be collapsed by default. Suggested values mw-collapsed	String	optional

"Blocks" are well-defined in Unicode. They are described from the numbering-way down: Unicode -> Plane -> Block -> code point.
Think "scripts" if you work from the character-way upwards: character -> code-point -> Unicode.

Block input

For each block, use

{{Unicode blocks/row
 |plane = One from set BMP, SMP, SIP, TTP, ..., PUA-AB (BMP=default)
 |range = Unicode range (pattern like U+0080..U+00FF)
 |name  = Block name, wikilinked
 |cp    = Number of code points
 |char  = Number of characters assigned
 |contains= Content of the block (scripts)
}}

The template starts a new row in the table (adds |-).

|planelink=yes can be set to wikilink the first occurrence of a plane. Will wikilink the plane ID (like 1 SMP)

Example

{{Unicode blocks/row
 |range=U+0080..U+00FF 
 |name=[[Latin-1 Supplement (Unicode block)|Latin-1 Supplement]]{{efn |name=Latin1_Supplement|1=Called "C1 Controls and Latin-1 Supplement" in [[ISO/IEC 10646]]}}
 |cp=128
 |char=128 
 |contains=Latin (64 characters), Common (64 characters)
}}
