Documentation

Note
This page is a template. It contains some standardized, often used text, which can be transcluded inside other pages. As this template is widely used in our wiki, it may be protected in which case only staff members can change it. Use the discussion page to propose enhancements or fixes, or to voice your opinion.

Use this template inside an {{InfoBox stack}} to provide a link to an official Gentoo Project page in a right-floated box.

Parameters

Parameter name Required? Default value Description
Anonymous parameter 1 Yes (n/a) Project name.
header No (n/a) Set this to yes or true to display a Resources heading, but only if the infobox is the first one in an {{InfoBox stack}}.
text No Project Can be used to change the link text.
raw No (n/a) If present, the anonymous parameter value is interpreted as a raw URL to link to using an external-style link.

In ordinary usage, the value of the required anonymous parameter must match the name of one of our projects, minus the "Project:" namespace prefix. For example, the value Catalyst will give a link to Project:Catalyst.

In rare cases, the target article may not be in this wiki's "Project:" namespace (it may be in a different namespace or not on the wiki at all). In such cases, the value of the required anonymous parameter must be a raw URL (in the form http://example.com/path, http://example.com/path, or //example.com/path) and the raw parameter must be set to any value (yes is a good choice).

Usage

This template must be used inside of an {{InfoBox stack}}, as seen in the template's testcases:

The templates below are implemented using {{InfoBox}}. They should also appear in Category:InfoBox templates, which may be more complete than this list.

These templates should be used within an {{InfoBox stack}}. Each should provide its own header parameter, but if necessary {{InfoBox header}} can be used.

Underlined text indicates the default heading provided by header=true for each type of template.
