Module:English variant notice
MyWikiBiz, Author Your Legacy — Saturday October 12, 2024
Jump to navigationJump to searchThis module is for generating various english variant notice templates.
Automatically generates "variant" from title template that invokes it (e.g invoking from "Template:American English" gives "American English" as variant).
All templates using this support a Template:Para parameter for oxford spelling and Template:Para automatically.
Usage
- small, form, and including – unnecessary to use in templates as grabbed when passed in from talk pages
- id – the HTML id used in editnotices; "editnotice" is automatically appended
- image – name of file to be used as an icon, without the File: prefix.
- variant – defaults to the template name; the variant of English, which should be a Wikipedia article.
- spelling examples –gives spelling examples in parentheses
- compare –comparison variants of english
- text – custom text, set only if required to be different from the default
- doc if set to no, will not load the automatic documentation at Template:English variant notice/documentation
- editnotice_cat if set to yes, categorizes in edit notice category
- nocat disables documentation if set to true
- size set the size of the image (example: Template:Para)
Example
As of March 2018, Template:Hiberno-English uses the following parameters:
{{#invoke:English variant notice|main | id = hie | image = Four Provinces Flag.svg{{!}}border | spelling_examples = ''colour'', ''realise'', ''travelled'' | compare = [[British English|English]], [[Scottish English|Scottish]], and }}
which produces:
50px | This module is written in Hiberno-English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, realise, travelled), and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from English, Scottish, and other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus. |
