Template:Case preserving encode

{{ombox | type = content | text = This template is used in system messages.
Changes to it can cause immediate changes to the Wikipedia user interface. To avoid large-scale disruption, any changes should first be tested in this template's [[User:Jcreer/Misc/sandbox|/sandbox or [[User:Jcreer/Misc/testcases|/testcases subpage, or in your own Wikipedia:Subpages#How to create user subpages|user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. Please discuss any changes at {{#if:|[[{{{2}}}]]|the [[User talk:Jcreer/Misc|talk page}} before implementing them. }}

This is the {{case preserving encode}}

meta-template.

This template is used inside the templates tl|sec link, tl|sec link auto, and tl|sec link image. (And it might be used in other templates too.)

This template is used to URL-encode wiki page names for external links to other MediaWiki wikis. Since MediaWiki's own URL-encode functions don't work when making links to other MediaWiki wikis.

This template preserves the case of the first character, and it correctly preserves the namespace name.

Technical details

For a detailed explanation of the methods used in this template see the Template talk:Sec link#About ((sec link)), ((sec link auto)) and ((sec link image))|talkpage of {{sec link}}.

This template is a "subroutine" of {{Citation/core}}

used for conditionally making links for the chapter= and title= fields in a citation. 

It is invoked as:

{{Citation/make link

| 1 = <value of IncludedWorkURL= or URL= or PMC= parameters>

| 2 = <value of IncludedWorkTitle= or Title= parameters>

}}

It uses the following algorithm:

1. If the first parameter is empty, it returns the second parameter as plain text.
2. If the first parameter is a URL, it returns the second parameter wrapped inside an external link to the first.

This "subroutine" is designed for {{Citation/core}}

and makes assumptions that may not be valid elsewhere.

Examples:

• "{{Citation/make link||BBC News front page}}" produces "BBC News front page".
• "{{Citation/make link|http://news.bbc.co.uk/|BBC News front page}}" produces "BBC News front page".

When to use

This template should be used only on articles that have sources.

It may be used with {{Refimprove}}

or other check references templates. This template should not be used with XMS Wiki:Stub|stubs.

The most common correct use of this template is to identify an article that uses more than one major citation style (e.g., half the citations use Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#Standard appendices and footers|ref tags]], and half are Wikipedia:Parenthetical referencing|parenthetical citations]]).

Do not place on articles containing all parenthetical citations! They're not as easy to spot with a quick glance as superscripted blue numbers, but they are an acceptable form of Wikipedia:Inline citation|inline citation]]. Wikipedia:Citing sources|Wikipedia's guidelines]] generally prohibit editors from changing from one acceptable form of inline citations to another, especially for reasons of personal preference or to make one article match the style in another article.

This template may be removed by anyone who fixes the problems with confusing citation styles.

How to use

To use this template, place {{Citation style|date=November 2024}} on the article page or talk page in a location that may aid in conveying the message of the template. This template may be used within tl|Multiple issues and placement of this template on the article page is guided by Wikipedia:Template messages/Cleanup|Template messages/Cleanup]]. The following parameters may be specified for this template:

• |date= should preferably be used to categorize the article in a subcategory of :Category:Wikipedia references cleanup. This helps with addressing aged cleanup messages. (e.g., {{Citation style|date=November 2024}}.)
• |details= may be used to provide more details on some of the aspects that should be addressed for the given article. (e.g., {{Citation style|date=November 2024|details=In particular, citation titles should be specified}})
• | A first unnamed parameter may be used to specify whether the template applies to the entire article or a section of the article (e.g., {{Citation style|section|date=November 2024}}. If not specified, the first unnamed parameter defaults to "article."

Operation

This template will categorise tagged articles into :Category:Wikipedia references cleanup and :Category:Articles covered by WikiProject Wikify.

This template is a Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Self-references to avoid|self-reference]].

This template should not be substituted.

Usage

This template simply returns the passed parameter. It can be used to exclude parts of a page (or template) in print versions. This works since it is a member of Category:Exclude in print.

Please note that the books functionality is still experimental. Hiding text in "PDF/book print" currently works different from hiding text for "normal printing". To hide something both in book and in normal printing, please use class="noprint" or {{noprint}}

.

Please also note that this template has an unresolved bug such that it hides edit links from any included sections, see Template talk:Hide in print#Hides edit link bug. This means that using this template may inconvenience wikipedia editors. However, without the Hide in print wrapper, any printed book or PDF will include possibly unwanted parts. Therefore, please avoid using this template to hide sections.

Examples

{{hide in print|text to be hidden}}

{{hide in print|1=text to be hidden that uses an = sign}}

Edit section link bug

{{hide in print|1=====hides edit link bug1==== If you can edit the section "hides edit link bug1" then one hide link bug has been resolved. Otherwise, the bug is still present.}}

The above boxed example produces the below unboxed result

{{hide in print|1=text to be hidden that includes a section header ====hides edit link bug2==== If you can edit the section "hides edit link bug2" then a second possible hide link bug has been resolved. Otherwise, the bug is still present.}}

The above boxed example produces the below unboxed result

hides edit link bug2

If you can edit the section "hides edit link bug2" then a second possible hide link bug has been resolved. Otherwise, the bug is still present.

This template is obsolete.

<noprint> </noprint>

This is the {{high-risk}}

message box.

It is meant to be put at the top of the documentation for the most high-use (high-risk) templates. That is for templates used on 100,000 pages or more.

For templates used on 2000 - 100,000 pages we instead recommend using {{high-use}}

which has a softer wording.

Note! It is normal that some of the links in the message box are red.

Usage

The template can be used as is. But it can also take some parameters:

• First parameter is the number of pages. See Wikipedia:Database reports/Templates with the most transclusions to find out how many pages use a given template.
• Second parameter is the name of some other talk page if you want discussion to be made there instead. But a better option might be to redirect the talkpage of your template to that other talkpage.

Here are some examples:

{{high-risk| 300,000+ | Wikipedia talk:High-risk templates }}

{{high-risk| 300,000+ }}

{{high-risk| | Wikipedia talk:High-risk templates }}

The full code for a /doc page top can look like this:

{{documentation subpage}}
{{high-risk| 300,000+ }}
<!-- PLEASE ADD CATEGORIES AND INTERWIKIS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE -->

Technical details

The /sandbox and /testcases links are the standard names for such subpages. If those pages are created then the green /doc box for the template will detect them and link to them in its heading. For instance see the top of this documentation.

This template automatically displays a documentation box like you are seeing now, of which the content is transcluded from another page. It is intended for pages which are transcluded in other pages, i.e. templates, whether in the template namespace or not.

Usage

Normal /doc

<noinclude>{{Documentation}}</noinclude>

Any /doc page

<noinclude>{{Documentation|Template:any page/doc}}</noinclude>

In-line content

<noinclude>{{Documentation|content=This is documentation.}}</noinclude>

In-line content with [view][edit] links

<noinclude>{{Documentation
|1 = Template:any page/doc
|content ={{Template:any page/doc|parameters}}
}}</noinclude>

Best practice

This code should be added at the bottom of the template code, with no extra space before "<noinclude>" (which would cause extra space on pages where the template is used). The parameter can be used as shown above to transclude an arbitrary documentation page.

Add categories and interwiki links to the documentation page inside <includeonly> </includeonly> tags.

If the documentation page contains includeonly or noinclude tags as part of the documentation, replace the "<" with "&lt;".

Customizing display

Overrides exist to customize the output in special cases:

• {{documentation| heading = ...}} − change the text of the "documentation" heading. If this is set to blank, the entire heading line (including the first [edit] link) will also disappear.

Functions

If the documentation page doesn't exist, the "edit" link includes a preload parameter so that clicking it will pre-fill the edit form with the basic documentation page format.

Rationale

Use of this template allows templates to be protected where necessary, while allowing anyone to edit the documentation, categories, and interwiki links.

Note page has hidden operative code when viewed directly.

This template is used to extend the parser function '#ifeq:' to multiple tests.

• The returned string is defined TRUE if any test pair of input parameters satisfies as if presented in any single #ifeq: test.

• The returned value is essentially TRUE OR FALSE— garbage characters OR a null (computer) string, respectively. Thus it is suitable for testing by a simple #if:-then-else conditional on the calling page.

• Applications are generally to display selective text for a set of pages, as in for example, a common usage page for templates, selected by specific page name cases.

• This template takes upto eight pairs of arguments (i.e 16 m:Help:Template|numbered parameters]]), tests the odd verus the even, and returns true if any pair matches using the parser function '#ifeq:'.

This can be used to test for criteria which may be satisfied by some combination of mulitple magic words, such as {{SITENAME}} or {{PAGENAME}}.

Template:Intricate template

Actually, this template's syntax is relatively simple, but templates that link to the above message should be intricate, i.e., complex, using less obvious techniques, [[wikt:esoteric|esoteric syntax, combining different techniques, used as parameter for other templates, build to function for a variety of calling instances, etc. The above template adds templates to [[:Category:Intricate templates.
