Parameters
Mandatory
- name
- The name of the template, which is needed for the "v · t · e" ("view · talk · edit") links to work properly on all pages where the template is used. You can enter
((subst:PAGENAME))for this value as a shortcut.
- title
- Text that appears centered in the top row of the table. It is usually the template's topic, i.e. a succinct description of the body contents. This should be a single line, but if a second line is needed, use
((-))to ensure proper centering.
- listn
- (i.e. list1, list2, etc. up to list20) The body of the template, usually a list of links. Format is inline, although the text can be entered on separate lines if the entire list is enclosed within
- (i.e. list1, list2, etc. up to list20) The body of the template, usually a list of links. Format is inline, although the text can be entered on separate lines if the entire list is enclosed within
- background
- Use one of the following seven categories:
| Code | Display |
|---|---|
| solo_singer | Background color |
| non_vocal_instrumentalist | Background color |
| non_performing_personnel | Background color |
| group_or_band | Background color |
| cover_band | Background color |
| classical_ensemble | Background color |
| temporary | Background color |
Optional
Cells
- groupn
- (i.e. group1, group2, etc. up to group20) If specified, text appears in a cell displayed to the left of listn. Use these fields to provide label a for listn, such as "Studio albums", "Films", "Former members", etc.
- above
- A full-width cell displayed between the titlebar and first group/list, i.e. above the template's body (groups, lists and image). In a template without an image, above behaves in the same way as the list1 parameter without the group1 parameter.
- below
- A full-width cell displayed below the template's body (groups, lists and image).
Other
- state
- Defaults to
autocollapse. If set tocollapsed, the navbox will always start out in a collapsed state. If set to blank or anything other thanautocollapseorcollapsed, the navbox will always start out in an expanded state. A navbox withautocollapsewill start out collapsed if there are two or more tables on the same page that usecollapsible. For the technically minded, see MediaWiki:Common.js.
- navbar
- Defaults to
Navbar. If set toplain, the links on the left side of the titlebar will not be displayed.
Examples
((Navbox)) is used to build this template. ((Navbox)) uses the ((Nowraplinks)) CSS class thus links do not line break in this template. If there are non-linked portions of text that need to be controlled for wrapping use the hlist class (see WP:HLIST). If a small space between groups is desired leave an empty line between them.
