'''Family''' - This is the operating system family, examples include [[Microsoft Windows]], [[Unix]], and [[Unix-like]]. ''Linux'' is not a family, but rather a kernel. All Linux distributions are part of the Unix-like family.
+
== Moving release data outside the article ==
 +
The subject's latest release version, latest release date, latest preview version and latest preview date can be moved outside the article. Users visiting the article may click the version number or "[±]" link in the infobox to edit that external source. This mode is very useful for articles about software products whose vendors keep releasing updates or newer versions. With this mode is enabled, users can quickly and effectively edit the release data without editing the article proper (and cluttering its edit history with inconsequential edits).
  
'''Source model''' - This field is should usually have "open source" or "closed source". Do not use "free software", "free and open source software" or "FOSS" as they are mainly licensing models and may or may not use the "open source" development methodology.
+
Note, however, that if {{para|latest release version}} or {{para|latest preview version}} parameters are explicitly specified, the infobox does not look for external sources. (This can be useful if, for example, the preview version is frequently updated, but the release version is not.)
  
'''Kernel type''' - For Linux distros, this should be <nowiki>[[Linux kernel|Linux]]</nowiki>. It should not be the name of a distro.
+
To make the infobox retrieve release data from outside the article:
 +
#Create an external source that supplies data for latest stable release. To do so:
 +
##Copy and paste the following URL into your browser's address bar, replacing ''INFOBOX_NAME'' with the value supplied in {{para|name}} parameter of the infobox: <br/><code>{{fullurl:Template:Latest stable software release/INFOBOX_NAME|action=edit&preload=Template:LSR/syntax}}</code>
 +
##In the page that opens, fill in the required information.
 +
##Save the page.
 +
#Create an external source that supplies data for latest preview release. To do so:
 +
##Copy and paste the following URL into your browser's address bar, replacing ''INFOBOX_NAME'' with the value suppplied in {{para|name}} parameter of the infobox: <br/><code>{{fullurl:Template:Latest preview software release/INFOBOX_NAME|action=edit&preload=Template:LPR/syntax}}</code>
 +
##In the page that opens, fill in the required information.
 +
##Save the page.
 +
#In the main article, delete {{para|latest release version}}, {{para|latest release date}}, {{para|latest preview version}} or {{para|latest preview date}} parameters.
 +
#Save the article.
 +
#Refresh the article.

TemplateData for Infobox OS

This template can be used to provide a summary for articles on computer operating systems and their particular releases.

Template parameters

This template prefers block formatting of parameters.

ParameterDescriptionTypeStatus

Name of the infobox. This is used internally in combination with Template:Latest stable software release/'name' and is also displayed at the top of the infobox if the Title parameter is absent. It must be pure text. Do not include any wikimarkup in this parameter.

Default
PAGENAME
Stringrequired
Titletitle

Name of the operating system. Displayed at the top of the infobox. If not specified the 'Name' parameter or the PAGENAME are used. It should be plain text. Do not include a wikilink, hyperlink or image in this parameter.

Lineoptional
Source modelsource model source_model

Source model of the operating system. Can be '[[Open-source software]]', '[[Closed-source]]', or '[[Source-available]]'. Do not use 'free software', 'free and open-source software' or 'FOSS' as they are mainly licensing models and may or may not use the 'open-source' development methodology

Lineoptional

Lineoptional
Released to manufacturingRTM date RTM_date first release date first_release_date

The date when operating system version was released to manufacturing. Should be set to {{Start date and age|Year|Month|Day}}. Any value in this field disables display of 'Released' parameter.

Unbalanced wikitextdeprecated
General availabilityGA date GA_date

The date when operating system version became generally available. Should be set to {{Start date and age|Year|Month|Day}}. Any value in this field disables display of 'Released' parameter.

Target audience of operating system or its version

Stringoptional
Language countlanguage count

Number of languages supported. Causes the list of languages to become collapsed.

Stringoptional
Official websitewebsite

The web site URL of the software package. This URL must be readable in print. Therefore, you should use '{{tl|URL}}' template like this: '{{URL|http://www.example.com}}'. Avoid using printer-hostile forms like '[http://www.example.com Example website]'. In absence of this parameter, infobox attempts to acquire the website link from Wikidata. This parameter overrides the Wikidata link. (It is useful when a second infobox for something different is defined on a page.) In addition, the special value 'hide' suppresses this field, even in presence of a Wikidata link. (It is useful for articles that have several infoboxes and do not want all of them show a Wikidata link ad nauseam.)

Contentoptional
Support statussupport status support_status

Support status of operating system version. Not applicable to operating systems

Stringoptional

Moving release data outside the article

The subject's latest release version, latest release date, latest preview version and latest preview date can be moved outside the article. Users visiting the article may click the version number or "[±]" link in the infobox to edit that external source. This mode is very useful for articles about software products whose vendors keep releasing updates or newer versions. With this mode is enabled, users can quickly and effectively edit the release data without editing the article proper (and cluttering its edit history with inconsequential edits).

Note, however, that if |latest release version= or |latest preview version= parameters are explicitly specified, the infobox does not look for external sources. (This can be useful if, for example, the preview version is frequently updated, but the release version is not.)

To make the infobox retrieve release data from outside the article:

  1. Create an external source that supplies data for latest stable release. To do so:
    1. Copy and paste the following URL into your browser's address bar, replacing INFOBOX_NAME with the value supplied in |name= parameter of the infobox:
      https://blackwiki.org/index.php?title=Template:Latest_stable_software_release/INFOBOX_NAME&action=edit&preload=Template:LSR/syntax
    2. In the page that opens, fill in the required information.
    3. Save the page.
  2. Create an external source that supplies data for latest preview release. To do so:
    1. Copy and paste the following URL into your browser's address bar, replacing INFOBOX_NAME with the value suppplied in |name= parameter of the infobox:
      https://blackwiki.org/index.php?title=Template:Latest_preview_software_release/INFOBOX_NAME&action=edit&preload=Template:LPR/syntax
    2. In the page that opens, fill in the required information.
    3. Save the page.
  3. In the main article, delete |latest release version=, |latest release date=, |latest preview version= or |latest preview date= parameters.
  4. Save the article.
  5. Refresh the article.
