| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Documentation constellation navbox. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
{{Constellation navbox doc}} is a common documentation page for all navboxes listed in Category:Constellation navboxes. It is designed to replace all the templates' individual documentation pages with a single interchangeable template, with words and links interchangeable with a single parameter. {{Collapsible option}} and {{Universe navboxes}} are used in this template.
Usage
This template has only one parameter, 1, in which the name of a constellation is placed as the input. For example, {{Constellation navbox doc|Andromeda}} will output a description tailored to {{Andromeda (constellation)}}. Only the name of the constellation is needed, regardless of whether or not the template name has "(constellation)" disambiguation. An {{#ifexist:}} parser function is used to check if a template name has a disambiguation, and if it does, it automatically makes a proper wikilink to the template and its associated article, e.g. Andromeda (constellation). To place the template on the page of a template, use the following syntax, with constellation replaced with the name of whichever constellation you want to feature:
{{Documentation
| 1 = Template:Constellation navbox doc
| content = {{Constellation navbox doc|constellation}}
}}
Succession
This template is designed to be a successor to the following predecessor documentation templates which now serve as redirects to this template:
