{{Navigation/doc}} is a generic navigational template. The KISS principle was observed.

Usage


To apply this template, you can start by copy-and-pasting the following code and then provide arguments:

Blank

{{Navigation
| name  = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| title = 
| cat   = <noinclude>]</noinclude>
| body  = 
}}

Parameters


Mandatory
name
(or "templateName") The name of the template, which is needed for the "view · talk · edit" links to work properly on all of the pages where the template is used on. You can enter {{subst:PAGENAME}} for this value as a shortcut.
title
(or "header") Text that appears centered in the titlebar (the top bar). Usually this is the template's topic, i.e. a succinct description of the body parameter's contents.
body
The material contained by the template, usually a list or list of links. Format is inline.
Optional
color
Background color of the titlebar. NB Care/consensus needed when using this parameter as multiple navigational templates on one page using different titlebar colors is likely to look unpleasant.
cat
(or "category) The category or categories to which a page sporting the template will become a member.

Example


Code

{{Navigation
| name  = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| title = ] of ]
| cat   = ]<noinclude>] ]</noinclude>
| body  = ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]
}}

Result

Countries of Central Asia
