Template:Resbox/doc

Purpose
This is a wrapper template, to convert any of the large family of inline, comment-level templates, used for annotating process or discussion resolutions, into a bordered, discussion hatnote template of the Resolved style. The inline templates are most often used at the beginning of a reply, while the hatnotes are used immediately below the discussion heading. This wrapper permits the many more specific messages available at the inline level to be used at the thread level, where only a few such templates have been heretofore been available. The wrapper obviates the need to permanently duplicate any more of the inline ones as essentially redundant hatnote variants.

If the text supplied doesn't match a template name, then it's simply turned into a comment in the box, with no icon:
 * Arbitrary:

produces:


 * With inline template's parameters:

 * With its own outside-the-box comment text:
