Parameters

[edit]

Do not use all these parameters for any given pattern. The list is long to cover a wide range of patterns and materials. Only use those parameters that convey essential information about the pattern, and ensure that that information is sourced in the article or (if present only in the infobox) in the infobox itself. Any parameters left blank or omitted will not be displayed. If a data field has more than one parameter name which can be used, the preferred name is listed first in bold print.
