Editing and Layout

[edit]

Please note that what we are trying to do with this template is quite ambitious: Listing all the various Army Units. It is a little amount of space that must hold a lot of information. For this reason please use all reasonable abbreviations for Units. Preferably ones that are generally recognised.

Please take note that long names, especially in the left columns, essentially breaks the template because it squashes everything up.

Be as consistent as possible with the structure. As you can already see from what's there, this is a 'best effort' appeal.

If you want to make major changes to the template, the polite thing to do is to obtain consensus on the Talk Page to avoid instant reverts.

Please contribute! Either by adding to this template or more importantly by clicking on a red link and creating the missing article!

Options

[edit]

This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.

To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:

  • {{SA Army Units|state=collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.
  • {{SA Army Units|state=expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
