Template:TOL-gen-top

TrainzOnline Wiki-Projects

 

Appearance∅

This template presents the banner message shown above, and inserts {{TOCright}} before any text on the page unless the parameter |inhibit=yes is passed as shown.

It is written to take a navigation template as {{{1}}} , but that will likely require further work.

Purpose

This template is used to set off N3V TrainzOnline Wiki admin, help, information, general reference, essay, and/or project pages —all user maintained pages on the N3V TrainzOnline Wiki from Official reference pages and tutorials. The TrainzOnline namespace does also hold wiki management and wiki-how-to pages as well.

Template action

• It does the above by initiating a <div style=" ..."> HTML block.

Alternative's Usage notes

1. It's complimentary templates {{TOL-bot}}, {{TOL-end}} should be used to close the HTML format block and thus cause the page to form properly. These have different auto-categorization features.
   1. {{TOL-bot}} — auto-categorizes a page to Category:TrainzOnline usage pages, the parent category of category:TrainzOnline Wiki's reference pages
   2. and of category:TrainzOnline Wiki's projects pages
   3. {{TOL-end}} — asserts no auto-category, but will take the '|cat=Category-declaration in the short form lacking the brackets and 'category:' namespace prefix. (i.e. give just pass it a category name, and it will handle pipetricking and link formation)
2. {{TOL-refpg-end}} will also auto-categorize the page to the category:TrainzOnline Wiki's reference pages... which makes it inappropriate in category pages... hence 'beg-end' on article pages, and 'top-bot' on categories is per design and intent.
