==Babel boxes==
 
Your Babel box is for saying what languages you know, as well as what operating system, keyboard layout, web browser, desktop environment, and text editor you are most comfortable with.  Details of how to use it for its original purpose, saying what languages you know, are at [[Wikipedia:Babel]].  Details of how to use it to say what technologies you use are fairly scattered, but a large assortment are at [[:Category:Wikipedians by technology]], or in [[:Category:Wikipedians]].
 
 
 
*[[Template:Babel]] - Allows 1 to 100 boxes.<br />Format: <nowiki>{{Babel|<box1>|<box2>|<box3>...}}</nowiki>
 
*[[Template:Babel-N]] - Allows any number of boxes.<br>Format: <nowiki>{{Babel-N |1={{User <box1>}}{{User <box2>}}{{User <box3>}}...}}</nowiki>
 
 
 
==Passing parameters to included user boxes==
 
The trick is to use the {{tl|!}} template. See below for an example.
 
 
 
==User boxes from the "User:" namespaces==
 
The Babel box prefixes its arguments with "User ", so it will work with the User: namespace. For example, this would include the <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[:User:Urhixidur/Userboxes/Asteroid|User:Urhixidur/Userboxes/Asteroid]]}} user box, and pass it a parameter as well:
 
<pre>
 
{{Babel|<box1>|<box2>|:Urhixidur/Userboxes/Asteroid{{!}}<parameter>|<box 4>|...}}
 
</pre>
 
 
 
==Custom headers, footers etc.==
 
To customize the appearance you can add the optional parameters header=''HEADER'' (default: [[Wikipedia:Babel]]), footer=''FOOTER'' (default: [[:Category:Wikipedians by language|Search user languages]]), bordercolor=''BORDERCOLOR'' (default: #99B3FF), color=''COLOR'' (default: white), textcolor=''TEXTCOLOR'' (default: black), left=''Left margin'' (default: 1), bottom=''Bottom margin'' (default: 0.5), solid=''Solid border width'' (default: 1), width=''Box width'' (default: 248), and/or extra-css=<any other formatting>. Call the '!' userbox to start a new column after that point or the '-' userbox to insert a blank row. You may also use '|align=left' to display the babel box on the left side of the screen rather than the default right. Boxes with parameters can be added at the end with the format, "|special-boxes=<nowiki>{{box page name|param1|param2}}{{second page name|param1|param2|param3}}</nowiki>". Any number of additional boxes can be added this way and will display below the others.
 
 
 
Example: <nowiki>{{Babel|align=left|color=yellow|en|fr|de|!|tl|ru|:UBX/1337}}</nowiki> produces:
 
 
 
{{Babel|align=left|color=yellow|en|fr|de|!|tl|ru|:UBX/1337}}
 
 
 
{{-}}
 
 
 
==How to get Babel boxes to work on other Wikipedias==
 
The page you are now reading is the actual Babel template.  If you click "edit this page", you will see a bunch of computer code that makes the Babel boxes work.  What you're now reading is just comments in that code, inside "<nowiki><noinclude></nowiki>" tags so it doesn't interfere with the computer code.
 
 
 
In order to have Babel boxes on another Wikimedia project, just copy this page to that project.  Click "edit this page" but do not actually change this page.  Just use your computer mouse to copy all the contents, including the computer code.  Create a page called "Tempate:Babel" on the other Wikimedia project and put the content into it.
 
 
 
You also need to copy over a bunch of files with names like "Template:User en", "Template:User en-1", "Template:User fr", etc. etc.  Once you've done that, users can put e.g. "<nowiki>{{Babel:en-1|fr}}</nowiki>" on their user page and the Babel boxes will be displayed.

Wikipedia:Babel
You haven't set up any languages. Please see Template:Babel/doc for help.
Search user languages
50px Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

{{Babel}} is for showing the languages that you know, as well as the operating system, keyboard layout, web browser, desktop environment, and text editor that you are most comfortable with. Details of how to use it for its original purpose—showing the languages that you know—are at Wikipedia:Babel.

Usage

{{Babel|<box1>|<box2>|<box3>...}}

Parameters can be added using the {{!}} and {{=}} tricks:

{{Babel|0RR{{!}}border-c{{=}}red}}

Wikipedia:Babel
Template:User 0RR
Search user languages

The Babel box prefixes its arguments with "User ", so it will work with the User: namespace:

{{Babel|:UBX/Userboxes/Thank Button}}

Wikipedia:Babel
User:UBX/Userboxes/Thank Button
Search user languages

Custom styling

To customize the appearance you can add the optional parameters

|align=right
to display the babel box on the left side of the screen rather than the default right
|header=header
change header, default is Wikipedia:Babel
|footer=footer
change wiki markup for footer, default is [[:Category:Wikipedians by language|Search user languages]] (which appears as Search user languages)
|bordercolor=color
color of the border, default is #99B3FF
|color=color
background color, default is white
|textcolor=color
text color, default is black
|left=pixels
left margin in pixels, default is 1
|bottom=pixels
bottom margin in pixels, default is 0.5
|solid=pixels
solid border width, default is 1
|width=pixels
width of the box, default is 248
|extra-css=css-code
any other custom formatting

Columns and separators

  • Use ! to start a new column after that point
  • Use - to insert a blank row
  • Use head to insert a header; use head-m to insert a header without text
  • Use line to insert a horizontal ruler separator

Example: {{Babel|align=left|header=Userboxes|color=yellow|head|en|tl-1|ru-2|line|pas|:UBX/1337|!|head{{!}}Other|1RR|help desk|-|line|happy|wikipedia/WikiFairy|nocat=yes}} produces:

Userboxes
Template:User headTemplate:User enTemplate:User tl-1Template:User ru-2Template:User lineTemplate:User pasUser:UBX/1337Template:User headTemplate:User 1RRTemplate:User help deskTemplate:User -Template:User lineTemplate:User happyTemplate:User wikipedia/WikiFairy
Search user languages

Use on other wikis

The page you are now reading is the actual Babel template. If you click "edit this page", you will see invocation of Lua Module:Babel that makes the Babel boxes work. What you're now reading is just documentation for that code, transcluded inside "<noinclude>" tags so it doesn't interfere with the computer code.

In order to have Babel boxes on another Wikimedia project, you need both template and the module. Click "view source" and copy all the contents, including the computer code. Create a page called "Template:Babel" on the other Wikimedia project and put the content into it. Do the same for the module.

You also need to copy over a bunch of files with names like "Template:User en", "Template:User en-1", "Template:User fr", etc. etc. Once you've done that, users can put e.g. "{{Babel|en-1|fr}}" on their user page and the Babel boxes will be displayed.
