Template:Incorrect namespace

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

This template is for use in other templates in conjunction with namespace detection. It adds pages to Template:Cat. The template has been designed to not work in the template namespace so templates transcluding this template can be viewed normally. The template also does not work on sub-pages titled "sandbox" or "testcases" or on Wikipedia:Sandbox.

{{Single namespace}} can be used instead of this template if only one namespace is specified (such as in the example below).

Parameters

unnamed parameter 1

(required) This parameter inserts text in the message to specify the namespace the template in question should use.

|nocat=

(optional) when set to a positive value (true, yes, or 1), will prevent the inclusion of Template:Cat. See Wikipedia:Category suppression

Example

{{Ombox
| type = notice
| text = Example text.
}}<includeonly>{{Help other|[[Category:Example category]]|{{Incorrect namespace|help}}}}</includeonly>

produces:

In the above example, {{Help other}} is used to add pages in the help namespace to Category:Example category. For pages outside the help namespace, {{Incorrect namespace|help}} is used to display the error message box and add the page to Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace. To omit the error category, use {{Incorrect namespace|help|nocat=true}}.
