Template parameters

TemplateData

TemplateData is a way to store information about template parameters (the description of those and of the whole template) for both humans and machines. It is used by VisualEditor and possibly other tools like Upload Wizard.


Existing template documentation
At Wikimedia Commons, it is recommended to use {{TemplateBox}} with either ‎useTemplateData=1 or ‎useTemplateData=only on the ‎/doc subpage and transcluding it with {{Documentation}} into the template. ‎<nowiki>-tags can be wrapped around the arguments, if required, to avoid templates being expanded.

Newly created template documentation and imports
Another option, especially for imported templates, or for users with JSON experience, is placing raw ‎<templatedata>-tags into the Wikitext of the template, as described in various Wikipediae.

More examples

{{Vote rename category}}
Will try to display the label in the user's desired language: Rename category
{{Vote rename category|lang=pl}}
Try displaying the label in Polish (falling back to another language if the label isn't defined for that language): Zmienić nazwę
{{Vote rename category|hello}}
Will only keep the icon and replace the default label with a custom message (which must not contain equal signs ("=")): hello
{{Vote rename category|}}
Will only display the icon (without a label): Rename category
