What is TemplateData?
ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ
TemplateData is used by VisualEditor to improve the template-editing experience for the user. VisualEditor includes a wizard to edit templates, but for the wizard to be most useful, it needs to present specific information to the user about each template, such as a short description of the template's purpose and its parameters. This information is codified formally (by any wiki editor) using TemplateData.
Without TemplateData
ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ
| Without TemplateData, each parameter needs to be added manually when inserting a new template. |  |
| No information is provided about what the value of the parameter should be. |  |
With TemplateData
ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ
| With TemplateData, a list of supported parameters (and their description) is provided for the template. |  |
| TemplateData provides context for each parameter, and makes it much easier for users to modify templates. |  |
Adding TemplateData
ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ
Anyone can help by adding TemplateData to templates (particularly high-profile ones, such as infoboxes) so that they are easier to edit in VisualEditor. The following is a minimal example, placed on a template's documentation page:
<templatedata>{
"description": "insert description here",
"params": {
"first parameter": {
"label": "x",
"description": "x",
"type": "string",
"default": "default value",
"required": false
}
}
}</templatedata>
The TemplateData tutorial explains in detail how to add TemplateData information to a template.
Commonly used templates
ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿHere is a list of the most commonly-used templates. When you've added TemplateData to one, add a {{Tick}} mark next to it; we'll update the list with new additions as we go. Its advisable to do a null edit on the main template page to force the system to update the database.
For completed items, consult the bot-generated logging page Wikipedia:VisualEditor/TemplateData/List.
If you complete an item, mark it here with {{tick}} or {{done}} until the item appears on the logging page.
If you partly complete an item (suggested action), mark the entry below with {{partly done|<explain what still needs to be done>}} and do not remove from this list until they are completed. Partly done items will appear on the logging page as if they were completed.
