User:Mtew/templates/4AllGuideItems

Purpose

This template is intended to be used to build a table row of keyword parameter values to be included in reports.

For all {{{item}}}s in the [[Guild Wars Wiki:Formatting/{{{form}}}]] file, use the "key=" values to search the {{{talk}}} page for {{{status}}} templates for those keyword parameters and build a WIKI table row from their values. If a {{{prefix}}} or {{{suffix}}} keyword is provided, add it to each element generated.

Typical Usage

as part of a DPL format specification:
\n|-
\n| [[name]]{{4AllGuideItems|form=Quest|page=%PAGE%|title=%TITLE%|talk=%NAMESPACE% talk:%TITLE%}}

Keyword parameters

• debug1

Debug level for outer DPL request

• debug2

Debug level for inner DPL request

• form

The name of the formatting guideline to use. Defaults to "Dummy"

• item

The item template to examine. Defaults to "Guideline item"

• page

The %PAGE% value for the page being checked. (for debugging, not currently used.)

• name

The %NAMESPACE% value for the page being checked. (Not working at the moment.)

• prefix

inserted before each set of values

• status

The status template to examine. Defaults to "Guideline status"

• suffix

inserted after each set of values

• talk

Talk:%TITLE% value for the page being checked.

• title

The %TITLE% value for the page being checked. (for debugging, not currently used.)

Notes

This was not very easy to debug. To test it, the revision has to be saved and another page that uses it must be reloaded. This annoys the vandal patrol sysops more than a little.

To Do

• Convert to use {{{prefix}}} and {{{suffix}}} in place of {{{style}}} — Done? Then pull {{{style}}} reference.
• Allow prefix and suffix overrides for particular entries

Preferably using the status parameter's name
