Template:High-use
This template is used on many pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This is the {{high-use}} message box.
It is meant to be put at the top of the documentation for templates used on 200 - 1,000 pages.
For templates used on 1,000 pages or more we instead recommend using {{high-risk}} which has a stronger wording.
Usage
editThe template can be used as is. But it can also take some parameters:
- First parameter is the number of pages. See tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/embeddedincount.py to find out how many pages use your template.
- 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.
Here are some examples:
{{high-use| 500+ | Wikibooks:Reading room/Technical Assistance }}
This template is used on 500+ pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes at Wikibooks:Reading room/Technical Assistance before implementing them. |
