Template:Template doc page viewed directly {{Navigation/doc}} is a generic navigational template.

Blank

{{Navigation
| name  = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| title = 
| body  = 
}}

Parameters

Mandatory

name (or templateName)
The name of the template, which is needed for the "view · talk · edit" links to work properly on all of the pages where the template is used. You can enter {{subst:PAGENAME}} for this value as a shortcut.
title (or header)
Text that appears centered in the titlebar (the top bar). Usually this is the template's topic, i.e. a succinct description of the body contents.
body
The material contained by the template, usually a list or list of links. Use &#124; to separate links. It is not possible to include a pipe ("|") in the contents as this symbol is used to separate parameters. Format is inline.

Optional

color
Header color. Default is #efefef. Use of this parameter is discouraged. Where it is used, care and consensus are needed as multiple navigational templates on one page with different titlebar colors will probably look unpleasant.
cat (or category)
The category or categories to which a page sporting the template will become a member.


Example

Code

{{Navigation
| name  = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| title = ] of ]
| cat   = ]<noinclude>] ]</noinclude>
| body  =
]{{·}}
]{{·}}

]{{·}}
]{{·}}
]{{·}}
