Template documentation (for the above template, sometimes hidden or invisible)
Usage
{{Author |author_name= |date_created= |adopter= |date_adopted= |display_name= |url= |isnotuser= |co-authors= |contributors= |status= |editing= |balance= |img= |imgsize= |caption= }}
Note that unused fields may be omitted.
Name | Required | Description | Example |
---|---|---|---|
author_name | Yes | The wiki user name of the article's primary author. The author's name will be used as a link to their user page, and is case sensitive. If the author is not a member of the wiki they may enter whatever name they like, but must also set the "isnotuser" parameter. |
Tarkisflux |
date_created | Yes | The date the article was created. This may be different from the date that the article is added to the wiki | 23 December, 2011 |
adopter | Varies | The wiki user name of the article's current adopter. The adopter's name will be used as a link to their user page, and is case sensitive. If the adopter is not a member of the wiki they may enter whatever name they like, but must also set the "isnotuser" parameter. Note that this field is only used when the article has been adopted by a new author, and the original author is no longer responsible for its content. In those instances it is required, but in no others. |
Aarnott |
date_adopted | No | The date the article was adopted by the current adopter. If this field is left blank, the creation date of the article will show instead. | 24 December, 2011 |
display_name | No | The name the author or adopter would rather have shown to people who view the page. This text will replace the author_name or adopter parameter text as the default text for the user page link. This parameter is redundant in conjunction with the "isnotuser" parameter, and should not be used in those cases. | SuperAmazingMan |
url | No | If specified, this url will replace the default author or adopter name link behavior with a link to the url instead. | www.SuperAmazingMan.com |
isnotuser | No | This parameter is only used to specify the work of non-wiki users. If any value is entered for this parameter the default author or adopter name linking behavior is changed. The link to their talk page is removed, and the name itself does not function as a link unless the "url" parameter is also specified. | True |
co-authors | No | This parameter is used to specify additional authors on a project. Any number of additional authors can be added in a comma separated list. Each entry here is assumed to be a wiki user name, and a link to their user page will be generated. These entries will also be granted author credit in the SMW Author property. This parameter does not support co-authors without wiki accounts. | Guntank, SolEiji, TK-Tesaracted |
contributors | No | This parameter is used to specify additional contributors to a project, people who submitted work but not a sufficient amount to split authorship. Any number of contributors can be added in a comma separated list. No links will be created for these entries, and none of them will be granted author credit in the SMW Author property. This parameter does not support co-authors without wiki accounts. | PoltergeistOval, UnlivingRogue |
status | Yes | This parameter should contain a summary of the completion status of the article. | Complete |
editing | No | This parameter is used to specify editing restrictions on an article. If no value is entered here, the default text of "Clarity edits only please" will be used. | Mechanical edits welcome |
balance | Varies | This parameter specifies the intended balance level of the article, though some article types do not require a balance tag (incl: all 4e articles, 3.5e races, 3.5e equipment, etc.). All 3.5e article types that require a balance tag must choose one of "Low", "Moderate", "High", "Very High", or "Unquantifiable". | Moderate |
img | No | This parameter specifies an image, which has been uploaded to the wiki via Special:Upload, to show in the author box. | foo.png |
imgsize | No | This parameter specifies the width, in pixels, to show the image specified by the image parameter. It otherwise defaults to 200px. | 300px |
caption | No | This parameter adds a caption to the image used in the author box. | A Foo drinking away its troubles in a bar. |
