Template:High-risk/en

Template documentation

This is the {{high-risk}} message box. It is meant to be put at the top of the documentation page on the most high-use (high-risk) templates and Lua modules (the template detects the name space), i.e., for templates used on a large number of pages

Usage

The template can be used as is. But it can also take some parameters:

• First parameter is the number of pages.
• Second parameter is the name of some other talk page if you want discussion to be made there instead. But a better option might be to redirect the talkpage of your template to that other talkpage.

Examples

{{high-risk| 30,000+ | Project:Village Pump}}

{{high-risk| 30,000+ }}

{{high-risk| | Project:Village Pump}}

The full code for a /doc page top may look like this:

{{documentation subpage}}
<!-- Categories go where indicated at the bottom of this page, please; interwikis go to Wikidata (see also: [[Wikipedia:Wikidata]]). -->
{{high-risk| 30,000+ }}

Technical details

The [[/sandbox|/sandbox]] and [[/testcases|/testcases]] links are the standard names for such subpages. If those pages are created then the green /doc box for the template will detect them and link to them in its heading. For instance see the top of this documentation.
