Wiki templates
The following templates were created to help manage the Wiki. They are added to a page as required using the format {{TEMPLATE_NAME}}. Template pages include documentation on use of the template embedded directly in the page. Use the links below to see the detailed instructions and use information.
- Anchor - Creates a wikilink on a page at that point where the template is added. Use the "|" (pipe) character in the format {{Anchor|Name of Link Desired}}.
- Clear - Forces the content above this template to finish displaying before the content below starts.
- NeedInfo - Inserted on a page where more information is required for that topic. It tells the reader that more information is coming.
- NeedPage - Placed on a new page to tell readers that the page has not yet been created, but is coming soon. Prevents users hitting a red create page link if the page does not yet exist.
- Obsoleted - Place on obsolete pages that have already had their links reviewed for replacement. Before that step is complete use the template ToObsolete.
- Red - First parameter passed to template is displayed as red text.
- TemplateDisplay - Used in Template documentation.
- TemplateNotDisplayed - Used in Template documentation.
- ToObsolete - Place on obsolete pages that need to have the links reviewed for possible replacement to more current/active pages. Replace with Obsoleted template once the links are reviewed.
- UpdateForEditorChange - Inserted on a page or section that includes old images (or text) that is out of date from the current editor, but is close enough for readers to still follow.
- WikiManagement - Added to the top of pages that are part of the Wiki management to tell users it is not part of the general Waze help system.
