Template:Module rating

This module generates banner templates for the annual Arbitration Committee elections. To make a banner template for an Arbcom election, add the links to that year's Arbcom election pages as described below, and set the four date parameters. After that, editors can add voting guides using the guiden parameters. Voting guides are displayed in a random order.

Syntax

The full syntax for the template is as follows:

{{#invoke:Arbcom election banner|main
| name          = 
| electionpage  = 
| nomstart      = 
| nomend        = 
| votestart     = 
| voteend       = 
| beforenomlink = 
| nomlink       = 
| votepage      = 
| votelog       = 
| contact       = 
| discuss       = 
| cguide        = 
| cstatements   = 
| cquestions    = 
| cdiscuss      = 
| guide1        = 
| guide2        = 
| guide3        = 
| guide4        = 
| guide5        = 
}}
