Template:NavigationBox/doc

This is the template documentation page for {{NavigationBox}}. It is not intended to be viewed directly. If it uses variables, some links may appear broken. Do not replace these variables with hardcoded page names or URLs.

Purpose

This is a navigational template. It helps to construct a standardized box containing a list of links to articles which relates to the one being read, plus an optional image.

Use

To apply this template you can start by copy-and-pasting the following code and then provide adequate arguments:

{{NavigationBox

 | Color = 
 | Image = 
 | List = 
 | Category = 
 | Summary = 
}}

Mandatory arguments

• Title: A title for the navigation box; may include links
• List: List of links to related articles; links maybe separated, for instance, by commas, bullets, or pipe symbols.

Recommended arguments

• Summary: this parameter is aimed at vocal and Braille-based user agents and should give a brief textual description of the box contents; ordinary quotation marks around or within the provided text are not allowed; if quoting is needed you may use curly quotes: “ and ”.

Default values

The Color parameter defaults to the color showed in the {{{Title}}} row above.
