Template:Russia topic/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Russia topic. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template employs intricate features of template syntax.
You are encouraged to familiarise yourself with its setup and parser functions before editing the template. If your edit causes unexpected problems, please undo it quickly, as this template may appear on a large number of pages. You can conduct experiments, and should test all major changes, in either this template's sandbox, the general template sandbox, or your user space before changing anything here. |
This template allows for the quick creation of a navigational template for any group of articles which contains the names of Russian federal subjects. It uses {{Navbox}}
to create the navigation box.
Note that this template is NOT an alternative to {{Subdivisions of Russia}}. That template, as its title states, solely concerns subdivisions of Russia and elaborates on that topic in ways this template does not.

Parameters
[edit]Mandatory
[edit]- name
- Mandatory when creating a new template (i.e. Template:Hospitals in Russia), otherwise the "view · talk · edit" links will connect to Template:Russia topic. You can enter
{{subst:PAGENAME}}
for this value as a shortcut.
One of the following combinations is needed to create the links:
- prefix
- Places text before the state or territory name.
- suffix
- Places text after the state or territory name.
- prefix and suffix
- Places text before and after the state or territory name.
Optional
[edit]- state
- A navbox with
autocollapse
will start out collapsed if there are two or more tables on the same page that usecollapsible
. If set tocollapsed
, the navbox will always start out in a collapsed state. If set to blank or anything other thanautocollapse
orcollapsed
, the navbox will always start out in an expanded state. - Default is:
autocollapse
.
- title
- Text that appears centered in the titlebar (the top bar). This is optional because the use of either prefix, suffix or both will automatically generate a title if the title parameter is not supplied. This parameter is not automatically wiki-linked.
- navbar*
- Defaults to
Tnavbar
. If set toplain
, the v • d • e links on the left side of the titlebar will not be displayed, and padding will be automatically used to keep the title centered. Useoff
to remove the v • d • e links, but not apply padding (this is for advanced use only; the "plain" option should suffice for most applications where a navbar is not desired). Note that it is highly recommended that one does not hide the navbar, in order to make it easier for users to edit the template, and to keep a standard style across pages.
Excluding groups
[edit]In some instances, a category of federal subjects may not have their own articles on particular topics. To disable their inclusion in the template and avoid unnecessary red links, add any or all of the following parameters:
- exclude-rep
- Set to any value this excludes display of the group named Republics which links to Adygea and the other republics.
- exclude-kri
- Set to any value this excludes display of the group named Krais which links to Altai and the other krais.
- exclude-obl
- Set to any value this excludes display of the group named Oblasts which links to Amur and the other oblasts.
- exclude-cit
- Set to any value this excludes display of the group named Federal cities which links to Moscow and St. Petersburg.
- exclude-aob
- Set to any value this excludes display of the group named Autonomous oblasts which links to Jewish Autonomous Oblast.
- exclude-aok
- Set to any value this excludes display of the group named Autonomous okrugs which links to Chukotka and the other autonomous okrugs.
Adding groups and lists
[edit]Some templates may require a list of links not already included in the template. These can be specified as follows:
- group1
- Header text displayed in cell to left of text specified in list1.
- list1
- Text or a list of links that is displayed above the ordinary federal subject links.
- group8
- Header text displayed in cell to left of text specified in list3.
- list8
- Text or a list of links that is displayed below the state and territory links.
- above
- A full-width cell (no group header) displayed above the template's body (between the title and state/territory links).
- below
- A full-width cell (no group header) displayed below the template's body.
Styles
[edit]- titlestyle
- Specifies CSS values to apply to the title. One use of this is to set the background color of the title:
titlestyle = background: #0000FF;
titlestyle = background: blue;
- Default is:
background: #ccccff;
- bodystyle
- Specifies CSS values to apply to the entire template. This will not override the following {{Navbox}} default styles:
abovestyle = background:#ddddff;
belowstyle = background:#ddddff;
groupstyle = background:#ddddff; text-align:right; white-space:nowrap;
liststyle = width:100%; font-size:95%;
- abovestyle
- belowstyle
- Specifies CSS values to apply to the cell specified via the above and below parameters. For instance:
belowstyle = border-top: #ccccff 1px solid;
- Default is:
background: #ddddff;
- groupstyle
- Specifies CSS values to apply to the cells specified via the groupn cells. This option overrides any styles that are applied to the entire table. Example:
groupstyle = background:#6AFB92; vertical-align:top;
- Default is:
background: #ddddff; text-align:right; white-space:nowrap;
- liststyle
- Specifies CSS values to apply to the cells specified via the listn cells. This option overrides any styles that are applied to the entire table. Examples:
liststyle = padding: 5px 10px 5px 10px;
- Default is:
width:100%; font-size:95%;
Creating a new template
[edit]{{Russia topic
<!--passed through to Template:Navbox-->
| name = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| title=History of Russia
<!--specific to Template:Russia topic-->
| prefix = History of
}}<noinclude>
[[Category:Russia topic navigational boxes|{{PAGENAME}}]]
</noinclude>
Note: {{subst:PAGENAME}} in the above example would be replaced by History of Russia when this code is saved in Template:History of Russia.
