| | |
| This template produces formatted text, following the guideline for a '''[[WP:HATNOTE|Wikipedia hatnote]]'''.
| |
| :<code><nowiki>{{hatnote|Example hatnote text.}}</nowiki></code> →<br><!-- a construct to show hatnote as expected (using newline) -->
| |
| {{hatnote|Example hatnote text.}}
| |
| | |
| Broadly speaking, a hatnote should answer a readers' question (maybe preemptively): ''Am I on the right page?''
| |

| {{TOC limit}}
| |
| | |
| == Function ==
| |
| This template is primarily used to add a correctly formatted ''hatnote'' to a page. Often, but not always, this is a ''disambiguation link'' at the top of article pages. It places an HTML <code>div-</code> / <code>div</code> block around the text entered as its only argument, which provides standardized formatting (contents are indented and italicized in most displays); it also isolates the contained code to make sure that it is interpreted correctly.
| |
| | |
| This template is also used as the "meta-template" for additional specialized disambiguation link templates; see [[:Category:Hatnote templates]] for a list.
| |
| | |
| The template does not automatically create links of any kind. Links and other desired formatting must be explicitly added, using normal [[Wikipedia:Cheatsheet|Wikipedia markup]].
| |
| | |
| == Usage ==
| |
| | |
| ; Basic usage:
| |
| {{hatnote|''text''}}
| |
| | |
| ; All parameters:
| |
| {{hatnote|''text''|extraclasses=''extra classes''|selfref=''yes''|category=''no''}}
| |
| | |
| == Parameters ==
| |
| | |
| This template accepts the following parameters:
| |
| * <code>1</code> - the hatnote text. (required)
| |
| * <code>extraclasses</code> - any extra CSS classes to be added. For example, the {{tl|see also}} template adds the classes {{para|extraclasses|boilerplate seealso}}.
| |
| * <code>selfref</code> - if set to "yes", "y", "true" or "1", adds the CSS class "selfref". This is used to denote self-references to Wikipedia. See [[Template:Selfref]] for more information.
| |
| * <code>category</code> - if set to "no", "n", "false", or "0", suppresses the error tracking category ([[:Category:Hatnote templates with errors]]). This only has an effect if the first positional parameter (the hatnote text) is omitted.
| |
| | |
| == Example ==
| |
| | |
| * <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|Example hatnote text}}</nowiki></code> → {{hatnote|Example hatnote text}}
| |
| | |
| == Errors ==
| |
| | |
| If no hatnote text is supplied, the template will output the following message:
| |
| * {{hatnote|category=no}}
| |
| | |
| If you see this error message, it is for one of four reasons:
| |
| # No parameters were specified (the template code was <code><nowiki>{{hatnote}}</nowiki></code>). Please use <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> instead.
| |
| # Some parameters were specified, but the hatnote text wasn't included. For example, the template text <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|extraclasses=seealso}}</nowiki></code> will produce this error. Please use (for example) <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>|extraclasses=seealso}}</nowiki></code> instead.
| |
| # The hatnote text was specified, but that text contains an equals sign ("="). The equals sign has a special meaning in template code, and because of this it cannot be used in template parameters that do not specify a parameter name. For example, the template code <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|2+2=4}}</nowiki></code> will produce this error. To work around this, you can specify the parameter name explicitly by using <code>1=</code> before the hatnote text, like this: <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|1=2+2=4}}</nowiki></code>.
| |
| # You tried to access [[Module:Hatnote]] directly by using <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:hatnote|hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>. Use of #invoke in this way has been disabled for performance reasons. Please use <code><nowiki>{{hatnote|</nowiki>''text''<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> instead.
| |
| | |
| If you see this error message and are unsure of what to do, please post a message on [[Template talk:Hatnote]], and someone should be able to help you.

| Pages that contain this error message are tracked in [[:Category:Hatnote templates with errors]].

| | |
| == Technical details ==
| |
| | |
| The HTML code produced by this template looks like this:
| |
| | |
| * <code><nowiki><div role="note" class="hatnote"></nowiki>''hatnote text''<nowiki></div></nowiki></code>
| |
| | |
| The code is produced by [[Module:Hatnote]].
