{{{1}}} |
This is the {{Notice}} message box. It should be used sparingly and only for significant information for which a more specific template doesn't exist.
This box automatically changes its style depending on what kind of page it appears; see {{Mbox}} for details.
Contents
Articles[edit]
{{Notice |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}}
produces:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. |
The box can be titled with an optional |heading=
(or |header=
) and |style=text-align:center;
can be added to center the text below it.
{{Notice |heading=Heading |style=text-align:center; |[[Lorem ipsum|Lorem ipsum (etc)]]}}
produces:
The message box can also take an |image=
parameter, but this is discouraged in articles. For an example of its use, see below.
Talk pages[edit]
On talk pages, {{Notice |Lorem ipsum (etc)}}
produces:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. |
|heading
/|header
also works, as well as setting the talkpage-only parameter |small=yes
, which alters the template's appearance thus:
Header Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. |
{{Notice |small=yes |header=Header |style=text-align:center; |Lorem ipsum (etc)}}
produces ......
Setting the |image=
parameter changes the image shown on the lefthand side of the template.
{{Notice |image=Stop hand nuvola.svg |heading=Heading |Lorem ipsum (etc)}}
produces:
Notice | Heading Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. |
(Note the effect of omitting |style=text-align:center;
here)
File and category pages[edit]
{{Notice |Lorem ipsum (etc)}}
on a File: page would produce... Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. |
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. |
Other pages[edit]
On other pages, such as those in the User:, Wikipedia: and Help: namespaces, {{Notice |Lorem ipsum (etc)}}
would produce:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. |
External links and equals signs[edit]
In most cases, external links can be used in the template without any complications. If a linkTemplate:Aside contains one or more equals signs ("Template:Padlr"), however, everything before the first sign will be interpreted as the name of a parameter. To prevent this, name the text carrying the link as the first numbered parameter:
{{Notice |1=Any text/links including "=" should now be interpreted correctly.}}
produces:
Any text/links including "=" should now be interpreted correctly. |
Adding an image, shortcuts, etc on the righthand side[edit]
To add shortcuts, images, other templates, etc to the righthand side of the template, use |imageright=
. For example, Template:Plaincode produces:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. | 40px |
Template:Plaincode includes the {{Shortcut}}s template providing links to You and Me:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. | Template:Shortcuts |
Alternate shortcut option[edit]
As an alternative to imageright, the |shortcut=
(or |shortcut1=
) and |shortcutTemplate:Padr=
parameters (where N = 2 to 5) may be used to display shortcuts. For instance, Template:Plaincode produces:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. | Template:Ombox/shortcut |
Note: If both imageright and any of the shorcut parameters are used, the contents of imageright will override the shortcut/s. For example, Template:Plaincode produces:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. | 40px |
