There are several meta-templates in the mbox family:
* {{tl|ambox}} – For article message boxes.
* {{tl|cmbox}} – For category message boxes.
* {{tl|imbox}} – For file (image) page message boxes.
* {{tl|mbox}} – Has namespace detection, for message boxes that are used on several types of pages and thus need to change style depending on what page they are used on.
* {{tl|ombox}} – For other pages message boxes.
* {{tl|tmbox}} – For talk page message boxes.

Closely related meta-templates:
* {{tl|asbox}} – For article stub message boxes.
* {{tl|dmbox}} – For disambiguation and set index message boxes.
* {{tl|fmbox}} – For header and footer message boxes.<noinclude>

Template:Citation Style documentation/ref

Funandtrvl: grmmr

* '''ref''': ID for anchor. By default, no anchor is generated. The ordinary nonempty value {{para|ref|<var>ID</var>}} generates an anchor with the given <var>ID</var>; such a linkable reference can be made the target of [[Wikipedia:Citing sources/Further considerations#Wikilinks to full references|wikilinks to full references]], especially useful in short citations like [[Wikipedia:Citing sources#Shortened footnotes|shortened notes]] and [[Wikipedia:Parenthetical referencing|parenthetical referencing]]. The special value {{para|ref|harv}} generates an anchor suitable for the {{tl|harv}} template. See: [[Template:Citation/doc#Anchors for Harvard referencing templates|Anchors for Harvard referencing templates]].

Template:Citation Style documentation/sep period

2013-09-29T21:03:36Z

Funandtrvl: grmmr

By default, sets of fields are terminated with a period (.). This can be an issue when the last field uses an abbreviation or initial that ends with a period, as then two periods will display (..). The only solution is to not include the last period in the value for the set of fields.

{{Mbox templates}}
This is the '''asbox''' or '''article stub box''' meta template. It is the standard template used for creating new or updating existing ''article stub box'' templates. It supports most, if not all, stub template styles.

=== Basic usage ===
<pre>
{{asbox
| image = just the name of the image, e.g. Image.png - will be sized at 40x30px
| subject = given before "article", e.g. "this *biographical* article is a stub"
| qualifier = given after "article" e.g. "this article *about a musician* is a stub"
| category = just the name of the category to place tagged pages in, e.g. History stubs
| name = the full name of the stub template itself, used to reference itself internally
}}</pre>

This simple usage should suffice for a great many stub templates. Additional parameters are described below for advanced use.

=== Full usage ===
<pre>
{{asbox
| image = Ambox style.png
| pix =
| subject =
| article =
| qualifier =
| category =
| tempsort =
| category1 =
| tempsort1 =
| note =
| name = {{subst:FULLPAGENAME}}
}}</pre>

===Parameters===
====<code>icon</code> or <code>image</code>====
If the image is called with an icon template, <code>icon</code> is set to the full syntax of the template; that's the name of the template, plus any arguments (separated with '''|''' ), including the <code>{{</code> and <code>}}</code> around it. Icon can also be used to provide the full image markup (include the opening and closing square brackets), if special image settings such as "border" are to be used. If the image is called explicitly <code>image</code> is the name of the image :- <code>pix</code> will likely be required as well, the default value for <code>pix</code> is 40x30.

<code>imagealt</code> may be used to override the default [[WP:Alternate text for images|alt text]] which is set to "Stub icon".

====<code>pix</code>====
The size of the image in pixels (no need to append px). Only ''required'' if <code>image</code> is used and this image requires a size different from the default maximum of 40x30 pixels. (Note that in the interests of standardising the formats of stub messages, images of size 40x30 are much preferred.)

====<code>subject</code> and <code>qualifier</code>====
This <code>subject</code> article <code>qualifier</code> 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...

====<code>category</code>====
The stub category the articles should go in.

====<code>tempsort</code>====
If exists the stub template (and any other templates) will be put in its own category sorted as " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort</code>, otherwise it will be sorted with the value of " " (space) followed by the template name.

====<code>category1</code>====
An optional second stub category the articles should go in.

====<code>tempsort1</code>====
If exists the stub template (and any other templates) will be put in its own category sorted as " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort1</code>, otherwise it will be sorted with the value of " " (space) followed by the template name.

====<code>category2</code>====
An optional third stub category the articles should go in.

====<code>tempsort2</code>====
If exists the stub template (and any other templates) will be put in its own category sorted as " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort2</code>, otherwise it will be sorted with the value of " " (space) followed by the template name.

====<code>note</code>====
If exists the value will be added, as a "small" note, to the stub template.

====<code>name</code>====
The full page name of the template itself.

===Examples===
====Using <code>image</code>====
Based on {{tl|Østfold-geo-stub}}:
<pre><nowiki>
{{Asbox
| image = Østfold_våpen.svg
| pix = 30
| subject = [[Østfold]] location
| category = Østfold geography stubs
| tempsort = *
| name = Template:Østfold-geo-stub
}}
</nowiki></pre>
appears as:
{{Asbox
| image = Østfold_våpen.svg
| pix = 30
| subject = [[Østfold]] location
| category = Østfold geography stubs
| tempsort = *
| name = Template:Østfold-geo-stub
| demo = yes
}}

==== Using <code>icon</code> and category1 ====
Using <code>icon</code> allows more flexibility in some circumstances than <code>image</code> and <code>pix</code>, since it can be used with templates. Based on {{tl|Wales-footy-bio-stub}}:
<pre><nowiki>
{{asbox
| icon = {{Soccer icon|Wales|50}}
| subject = biographical
| qualifier = related to Welsh association football
| category = Welsh football biography stubs
| tempsort = *
| name = Template:Wales-footy-bio-stub
}}
</nowiki></pre>
appears as:
{{asbox
| icon = {{Soccer icon|Wales|50}}
| subject = biographical
| qualifier = related to Welsh association football
| category = Welsh football biography stubs
| tempsort = *
| name = Template:Wales-footy-bio-stub
| demo = yes
}}

=== Whatlinkshere ===
The page [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Asbox&hideredirs=1&namespace=10&hidelinks=1 here] should have a complete list of all templates using this template. This list can be compared with existing list of stub templates to identify new stub templates created out of process. '''The last entries will also be the most recently created items.'''

=== Navbar ===
This template contains:
<nowiki>{{navbar|{{{name}}}|mini=yes|style=position:absolute; right:15px; font-size:smaller; display:none;}}</nowiki>
allowing a user to specify with css that three links regarding the stub template are shown (see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template_talk:Asbox&oldid=313089738#Navbar]). A side effect is that a non-existing talk page of the stub template may show up on [[Special:WantedPages]].

This is the '''asbox''' or '''article stub box''' meta template. It is the standard template used for creating new or updating existing ''article stub box'' templates. It supports most, if not all, stub template styles, in place prior to 26 September 2007.

=== Basic usage ===
<pre>
{{asbox
| image = just the name of the image, e.g. Image.png - will be sized at 40x30px
| subject = given before "article", e.g. "this *biographical* article is a stub"

===Parameters===

If the image is called with an icon template, <code>icon</code> is set to the full syntax of the template; that's the name of the template, plus any arguments (separated with '''|''' ), including the <code>{{</code> and <code>}}</code> around it. If the image is called explicitly <code>image</code> is the name of the image :- <code>pix</code> will likely be required as well, the default value for <code>pix</code> is 40x30.

====<code>pix</code>====
The size of the image, only ''required'' if <code>image</code> is set and its size is not 40x30. [[Defensive programming]] suggests setting the value of <code>pix</code> even if it is 40x30.

====<code>subject</code> and <code>qualifier</code>====
This <code>subject</code> article <code>qualifier</code> 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...

====<code>category</code>====
The stub category the articles should go in. Note that, unless the parameter [[#tempsort|<code>tempsort</code> ]] is set (see below), the template will only include articles in the stub category.

====<code>tempsort</code>====
If exists the template will be put in its own category sorted as " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort</code>.

====<code>category1</code>====
An optional second stub category the articles should go in. Note the template will only include articles in the stub category, unless the parameter [[#tempsort|<code>tempsort1</code> ]] is set, in which case templates (in particular the stub template itself) will also be included - sorted with the value of " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort1</code>.

====<code>tempsort1</code>====
If exists the template will be put in its own second category sorted as " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort1</code>.

====<code>note</code>====
If exists the value will be added, as a "small" note, to the stub template.

==== Using <code>icon</code> and category1 ====
Using <code>icon</code> allows more flexibility in some circumstances than <code>image</code> and <code>pix</code>, since it can be used with templates. As of January 24, 2007, the new parser requires the <code>{{</code> and <code>}}</code> around the used template, and a single <code>|</code> is used instead of <code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code> to separate the parameters. Old code relying on <code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code> will need to be updated:

====<code>category</code>====
The stub category the articles should go in. Note that, unless the parameter [[#tempsort|<code>tempsort</code> ]] is set (see below), the template will only include articles in the stub category.

====<code>tempsort</code>====
If exists the template will be put in its own category sorted as " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort</code>.

====<code>category1</code>====
An optional second stub category the articles should go in. Note the template will only include articles in the stub category, unless the parameter [[#tempsort|<code>tempsort1</code> ]] is set, in which case templates (in particular the stub template itself) will also be included - sorted with the value of " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort1</code>.

====<code>tempsort1</code>====
If exists the template will be put in its own second category sorted as " " (space) followed by <code>tempsort1</code>.

====<code>note</code>====
If exists the value will be added, as a "small" note, to the stub template.

===Examples===
====Using <code>image</code>====
<pre><nowiki>
{{Asbox
| image = Ostfold_vapen.png
| pix = 30
| subject = [[Østfold]] location
| qualifier =
| category = Østfold geography stubs
}}
</nowiki></pre>

Appears as:

{{Asbox
| image = Ostfold_vapen.png
| pix = 30
| subject = [[Østfold]] location
| qualifier =
| category =
}}

Based on {{tl|Østfold-geo-stub}}
:''(<code>category</code> has been over-ridden to keep this page out of the stub category)''

==== Using <code>icon</code> and category1 ====
Using <code>icon</code> allows more flexibility in some circumstances than <code>image</code> and <code>pix</code>, since it can be used with templates. As of January 24, 2007, the new parser requires the <code>{{</code> and <code>}}</code> around the used template, and a single <code>|</code> is used instead of <code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code> to separate the parameters. Old code relying on <code><nowiki>{{!}}</nowiki></code> will need to be updated:

<pre><nowiki>
{{Asbox
| icon = {{Soccer icon|Wales|50}}
| subject = [[biography|biographical]]
| qualifier = related to Welsh [[association football]]
| category = Welsh football biography stubs
| category1 = Welsh people stubs
| tempsort =
}}
</nowiki></pre>

Appears as:

{{Asbox
| icon = {{Soccer icon|Wales|50}}
| subject = [[biography|biographical]]
| qualifier = related to Welsh [[association football]]
| category =
}}

Based on {{tl|Wales-footy-bio-stub}}
:''(<code>category</code> and <code>category1</code> have been over-ridden to keep this page out of the stub categories)''

=== Whatlinkshere ===
The page [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Asbox&hideredirs=1&namespace=10&hidelinks=1 here] should have a complete list of all templates using this template. This list can be compared with existing list of stub templates to identify new stub templates created out of process. '''The last entries will also be the most recently created items.'''
