Template:Start infobox page/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Start infobox page It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template and its sister {{end infobox page}} are intended to facilitate the presentation of an infobox template and its documentation on the infobox template's own page. The documentation should be prepared as a {{documentation}} page. This template then assigns it the lefthand side of the infobox template's page, while the infobox template itself appears on the righthand side of the page, using this code:
{| style="width:100%; background:transparent;" |- style="vertical-align:top;" | <!-----Lefthand side: documentation-----> {{documentation}} | <!-------Righthand side: template------->
This template should be placed between <noinclude> and </noinclude> tags at the very top of an infobox template page, immediately before the start of the infobox's code thus:
<noinclude>{{start infobox page}}</noinclude><!--
-->infobox code starts here
The start and end-comment markers ("<!--
" and "-->
") are important as they remove the possibility of a spurious space appearing. The {{end infobox page}} template should then be placed within <noinclude> and </noinclude> tags on the first line after the end of the template code. For an example, see Infobox Machinima.
