en>Jackmcbarn Reverted 1 edit by Technical 13 (talk): I rely on documentation working in edit mode all the time. Please discuss if you strongly want this. (TW) |
en>Technical 13 It is extremely annoying to have to scroll all the way through 10 screens of temp docs for every "show preview". However, I do not wish to disturb others if they need to have the template documentation on screen all the time without tab switching. |

 | Uses Lua: |
 | This template is used in system messages. Changes to it can cause immediate changes to the MediaWiki user interface. To avoid large-scale disruption, any changes should first be tested in this template's /sandbox or /testcases subpage, or in your own user space. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. Please discuss any changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
Customizing display
Overrides exist to customize the output in special cases:
- {{documentation|heading=}}: change the text of the "documentation" heading. If this is set to blank, the entire heading line (including the first [edit] link) will also disappear.
Rationale
This template allows any page to use any documentation page, and makes it possible to protect templates while allowing anyone to edit the template's documentation, categories, and interwiki links. It also reduces server resources by circumventing a technical limitation of templates (see a developer's explanation).
