{{mbox}}

This is the {{Dmbox}} ([D]isambiguation footer [m]essage [box]) metatemplate.

It is used to build disambiguation and set index article message boxes.

This template works similarly to {{Ambox}} and mostly uses the same parameters. The main differences are that this box uses the disambiguation style and only has two "type" settings.

Usage[Quelltext bearbeiten]

Simple usage example:

{{dmbox | text = Some text.}}
{{dmbox | type = setindex | text = Some text.}}


Complex example:

{{dmbox
| type      = setindex
| image     = {{nowrap| [[File:{{Image mapper|Shuttle}}|20px]] [[File:{{Image mapper|DAB list gray}}|20px]] }}
| text      = The message body text.
}}


Some other parameter combinations:

Parameters[Quelltext bearbeiten]

List of all parameters:

{{dmbox
| type  = disambig / setindex
| image = none / [[File:Some image.svg|40px|link=|alt=]]
| imageright = [[File:Some image.svg|40px|link=|alt=]]
| text  = The message body text. 
| nocat = {{{nocat|}}} / true
}}

|type=

If no |type= parameter is given the template defaults to type sample text.
sample text = Makes it so the disambig editintro is displayed when editing a page with this template on. (Means that this template internally sets the CSS id "disambigbox". The id is used by the javascript in MediaWiki:Common.js to determine if a page is a disambiguation page or not.).
sample text = Does not trigger the disambig editintro when editing a page. (Because this instead sets the CSS id "setindexbox".)

|nocat=

sample text = Stops this template from categorizing. Useful for tests and demonstrations. Dmbox templates should forward |nocat=, so they too have the option to suppress categories. Thus, it is recommended that Dmbox templates always add something similar to this:
nocat = {{{nocat|}}}

|image=

[No parameter] = If no |image= parameter is given, the template uses the default |disambig= or |setindex= image, depending on the |type= parameter.
An image = Should be an image with usual wiki notation. 30px - 50px width are usually about right depending on the image height to width ratio. (Keep the width small; images in this template do not automatically shrink on mobile devices.) For example:
image = [[File:Schooner.svg|30px|link=|alt=]]
none = Means that no image is used.

|imageright=

No parameter = If no |imageright= parameter is given then no image is shown on the right side.
An image = Should be an image with usual wiki notation. 30px - 50px width are usually about right depending on the image height to width ratio. (Keep the width small; images in this template do not automatically shrink on mobile devices.) For example:
imageright = [[File:Nuvola apps bookcase.png|40px|alt=Books icon]]
Anything = Any other object that you want to show on the right side.

|text=

The message body text. This message box has italic text as default, thus no need to manually set that.

Technical details[Quelltext bearbeiten]

If you need to use special characters in the text parameter then you need to escape them like this:

{{dmbox
| text  = <div>
Equal sign = and a start and end brace { } work fine as they are. 
But here is a pipe {{!}} and two end braces <nowiki>}}</nowiki>. 
And now a pipe and end braces <nowiki>|}}</nowiki>.
</div>
}}

For more technical details see the talk page. Since this template works almost exactly like {{ambox}}, {{tmbox}}, {{imbox}}, {{cmbox}} and {{ombox}} their talk pages and related pages might also contain more details.
