Template:Wikipedia community

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

Initial visibility: currently defaults to autocollapse

To set this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:

• |state=collapsed: {{Wikipedia community|state=collapsed}} to show the template collapsed, i.e., hidden apart from its title bar
• |state=expanded: {{Wikipedia community|state=expanded}} to show the template expanded, i.e., fully visible
• |state=autocollapse: {{Wikipedia community|state=autocollapse}}
  • shows the template collapsed to the title bar if there is a {{navbar}}, a {{sidebar}}, or some other table on the page with the collapsible attribute
  • shows the template in its expanded state if there are no other collapsible items on the page

If the |state= parameter in the template on this page is not set, the template's initial visibility is taken from the |default= parameter in the Collapsible option template. For the template on this page, that currently evaluates to autocollapse.

Purpose

This navbox is intended to be a footer version of {{Noticeboard links}}, although it is also a possible replacement.

It is a superset of {{Noticeboard links}}, also including other community-oriented pages on the English Wikipedia.

The idea is to use this as a footer on appropriate pages that don't have the {{Noticeboard links}} header.

It excludes, for the most part, help pages and rule pages. It's more a directory towards tasks, assistance, news and debates.

• {{Wikipedia help pages}}
• {{Wikipedia technical help}}
• {{Manual of Style}}
