ଛାଞ୍ଚ:MoS-guideline

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

Template:MoS-guideline is only used on pages belonging to the Wikipedia Manual of Style. For style guides that do not belong to the MoS, use the {{Subcat guideline}} instead.

This template can only be used on pages that have received a general consensus as belonging to the Manual of Style.

New guidelines require approval

If you're writing a new guideline, or substantially revising one, please remember to give the community significant time to consider your proposal. See WP:PROPOSAL for the current best practice on advertising proposals.

For a short introduction on how to go from a proposal to a Wikipedia style guideline, see: Category:Wikipedia proposals and How to contribute to Wikipedia guidance.

Parameters

The template has eight parameters. The first three parameters, type, image and text, are fixed by the template itself. The remaining parameters include five unnamed parameters, that allow a user to specify up to five shortcut links for the style guideline page.

Usage strings

To use, place one of the following usage strings at the top of the page and fill in the parameters:

{{MoS-guideline|<shortcut link>|<shortcut link>}}
{{MoS-guideline}}
