Template:Interpolated comment/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This template may be used on Talk pages, to set off an interpolated comment by a user who added text in the middle of a post by another user.

Usage

[edit]

Place the template name and parameters above the interpolated comment, and add the ending curly brackets below it:

{{interpolated comment|indent=number|OP=username|1=

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

}}

As WP:INTERPOLATE notes, you should not break up another editor's text by interleaving or interpolating your own replies to individual points. Do not use this template to interpolate your own comments into those of another editor.

Parameters

[edit]
  • |1= – Text added by a second user in the middle of another user's post. Required; alias: |text=.
  • |indent= – A number, indicating the indent level (number of prefix colons) of the interrupted post. Optional; default: 1.
  • |OP= – Userid of the user whose comment was interrupted. Optional.
  • |style= – Additional or override style
  • |unsiguser= – Userid of the interrupting user, if their post was unsigned; optional.
  • |unsigdate= – Timestamp of the interrupting user's post, if their post was unsigned; optional, requires unsiguser.
