This is the TemplateData documentation for this template used by VisualEditor and other tools; see the monthly parameter usage report for this template.

TemplateData for Infobox OS

This template can be used to provide a summary for articles on computer [[operating system]]s.

Template parameters

Stringoptional
Logo captionlogo_caption

Icon to display in the title.

Stringoptional
Screenshotscreenshot

A screenshot depicting the operating system in its default configuration. Screen shots should not include any non-standard themes, third-party applications, or personally identifiable information. Also, per [[Wikipedia:Avoid self-references]], no references to Wikipedia should be visible. For example: 'File:MacOS81 screenshot.png'

Stringoptional

Notes

For information about the parameters in this template, see Template:Infobox software/doc. A number of elements of this template, however, need further explanation:

Family - This is the operating system family, examples include Microsoft Windows, Unix-like and Mac OS. Linux and Mac OS X are not OS families.

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.

Kernel type - For Linux distros, this should be [[Linux kernel|Linux]]. It should not be the name of a distro.
