Template:Dochead

This template inserts a header into documentation pages and categorizes documentation by namespace.

Documentation


Documentation transcluded from /doc

This template automatically inserts the default documentation header onto the main pages for certain items (mostly templates and modules), while also providing a link to the documentation subpage.

It also places items inside their respective categories, which eliminates the need to do this manually. Currently, it is configured to place modules and their documentation inside their respective categories (Category: Lua modules and Category: Module documentation).

Usage

This template is invoked by placing {{dochead}} at the top of a module or template's /doc subpage.

On modules, unless header=none is passed, a header will appear to inform users that modules should be called via templates instead of being invoked directly:

Note: Do not invoke this module directly; use the corresponding template instead: Template:ROOTPAGENAME.

where ROOTPAGENAME refers to the name of the page without the namespace or subpages. This way, the link in the header will attempt to point to a template with the same name as the module. If the template which calls the module has a different name, pass in temp= followed by the name of the template.
