Help talk:TemplateData/Archive 1

difference between German or english word
How can I be able to create a template... because i dont know whether i should use Template or Vorlage while creation of a template.

And after the creationI am not able to find the template-wiki-text and after that i am not able to change anything from the wikitext / template-text.

"default" parameter
Hi,

At the moment, the parameter "default" is not presented on this tutorial. So I propose to add this text in the page, between the T:38 and T:39 translations:


 * colspan=2 |
 * After that we have  , which defines the default value for the parameter.
 * After that we have  , which defines the default value for the parameter.
 * After that we have  , which defines the default value for the parameter.

You can forget this parameter if there's no default.

and I think to adapt T: XX below. But is it really that I could do? I'm not sure of how to use this extension, so if someone can help me, I thank for it by advance. Automatik (talk) 21:29, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
 * PS: Look at the code please, 'translate' tags doesn't display here. Automatik (talk) 21:34, 25 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks; This had been on my to-do list for a few days. I've added it :) guillom 15:49, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

Noinclude?
Does the templatedata need to be inside a "noinclude" tag? Sharihareswara (WMF) (talk) 00:38, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
 * At some point, I think it needs to be, otherwise it will be included in the articles using the template. --NicoV (talk) 13:07, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

TemplateData editor in galician wiki
Somebody could help to install TemplateData editor in galician wiki? Thanks in advance, --Elisardojm (talk) 21:39, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi Elisardojm, all the wikis will receive that editor after November 6th, but feel free to add a request to Bugzilla if you want that to happen sooner (you can use this as a guide). Let me know, --Elitre (WMF) (talk) 09:28, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I think that, at this time, we can wait. Bye, --Elisardojm (talk) 22:37, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Looking for smaller TemplateData tasks and mentors for Google Code-In - Got something in mind?
Hi everybody! Google Code-In (GCI) will soon take place again - a six week long contest for 13-17 year old students to contribute to free software projects. Wikimedia took part in 2013 already with great results. Tasks should take an experienced contributed about two-three hours (but "beginner tasks" are also welcome which are smaller) and can be of the categories Code, Documentation/Training, Outreach/Research, Quality Assurance, and User Interface/Design.

Do you have an idea for a task and could you imagine mentoring that task?

For example, do you have something TemplateData related on mind that needs documentation, some code (changes)? If yes, please go to Google Code-in 2014, check out the "Mentor's corner", and add your task there (please add tasks until Sunday even if it's only a stub - we can still polish them until December 1st when the contest begins)! And if something is unclear, please ask on the talk page. Happy to help! --AKlapper (WMF) (talk) 21:40, 6 November 2014 (UTC)

Missing heading in Indonesian
The Indonesian version of this help page doesn't have "TemplateData editor" and "Auto value" section on it, even they are already translated. Could someone check this? Thank you. William Surya Permana (talk) 07:58, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
 * It just magically appears now. William Surya Permana (talk) 08:13, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

"List of all templates with TemplateData on this wiki" in the bottom is not appearing in the translation. And could someone tell me how to translate the table "Template parameters" appearing in the Example section? Thank you. William Surya Permana (talk) 09:48, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I'll take a look at the first issue later today. For the second part, if you can't think of equivalents of those words in your language, maybe this can help (you should see the equivalent words as someone translated the interface)? Those terms are explained in the section right below the table, so the words should be used consistently in both of them. Hope this helps, --Elitre (WMF) (talk) 12:00, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
 * (On a second thought, I think most of that content actually won't need to be translated - see also how other languages handled that. --Elitre (WMF) (talk) 12:07, 20 November 2014 (UTC))
