Template:Wikipedia technical help/doc
![]() | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Wikipedia technical help. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
[edit]This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse
, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state=
parameter may be used:
{{Wikipedia technical help|state=collapsed}}
will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.{{Wikipedia technical help|state=expanded}}
will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
Purpose
[edit]This is a navbox of the main technical help pages on English Wikipedia.
It doesn't list them all as there are too many, but these should be the most helpful ones of a technical nature.
Additional help
[edit]Some of the links are also on the {{Wikipedia help pages}} navbox. Other helpful navboxes for technical matters include:
- {{Wikipedia templates}} for an index of templates
- {{Wikipedia referencing}} for referencing templates
- {{Botnav}} for bot page navigation
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Accessibility/Navigation menu for accessibility
- Wikipedia:User scripts/Navbox for user scripts
Also, look at template documentation (such as Template:Navbox/doc), the text of which should also be found in a green section on the template page itself (which for the previous example would be Template:Navbox).
Wikipedia:Categories, lists, and navigation templates is a good comparative overview, and helpful categories themselves include:
- Category:Wikipedia help and its subcategories such as Category:Wikipedia how-to, Category:Wikipedia image help, Category:Wikipedia interface help, and Category:Wikipedia link help
- Category:Wikipedia information pages
