Article series

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-end-v2|fullwidth=}} {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-start-v2|fullwidth=}} To add a series of 'related articles' your article, use the following code {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Tag series|image=|seriestitle=Visual Editor|tag=VisualEditor|limit=5|toggle_title=VisualEditor|sortdir=descending|version=2 |fullwidth=no}} 

{{Signpost series
 |type=sidebar-v2
 |tag=VisualEditor
 |seriestitle=Visual Editor
 |fullwidth=no
}}

will create the sidebar on the right. If writing a 'full width' article, change |fullwidth=no to |fullwidth=yes. A partial list of valid |tag= parameters can be found at here and will decide the list of articles presented. |seriestitle= is the title that will appear below 'Related articles' in the box.

Alternatively, you can use 

{{Signpost series
 |type=inline
 |tag=VisualEditor
 |tag_name=visual editor
 |tag_pretext=the
}}

at the end of an article to create

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Tag series inline|tag=VisualEditor|tag_pretext=the|tag_name=visual editor}}

If you think a topic would make a good series, but you don't see a tag for it, or that all the articles in a series seem 'old', ask for help at the WT:NEWSROOM. Many more tags exist, but they haven't been documented yet.

Images and Galleries

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-end-v2|fullwidth=}} {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-start-v2|fullwidth=}}

Sidebar images

To put an image in your article, use the following code {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Filler image-v2

image= size=300px alt=Placeholder alt text caption=CAPTION fullwidth=no

}} 

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Filler image-v2
 |image=
 |size=300px
 |alt=Placeholder alt text
 |caption=CAPTION
 |fullwidth=no
}}

This will create the file on the right. Keep the 300px in most cases. If writing a 'full width' article, change |fullwidth=no to |fullwidth=yes.

Inline images

Placing 

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Inline image
 |image=
 |size=300px
 |align=center
 |alt=Placeholder alt text
 |caption=CAPTION
}}

will instead create an inline image like below {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Inline image

image= size=300px align=center alt=Placeholder alt text caption=CAPTION

}}

Galleries

To create a gallery, use the following 

<gallery mode = packed | heights=200px>
|Caption for second image
</gallery>

to create

votepage=Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Voter/Issues/Test Poll/Votes question=Which is the correct answer? option1=Answer 1 option2=Answer 2 option3=Answer 3 fullwidth=no

If writing a 'full width' article, change |fullwidth=no to |fullwidth=yes.

1=Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet... author=AUTHOR source=SOURCE fullwidth=no

Side Frames

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-end-v2|fullwidth=}} {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-start-v2|fullwidth=}} {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Filler frame-v2

1=Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum. caption=A caption fullwidth=no

}} Side frames help put content in sidebar vignettes. For instance 

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Filler frame-v2
 |1=Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.
 |caption=A caption
 |fullwidth=no
}}

gives the frame on the right. This is useful when you want to insert non-standard images, quotes, graphs, and the like.

Example − Graph/Charts

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Filler frame-v2

1=<graph>{"legends":[],"scales":[{"type":"linear","name":"x","zero":false,"domain":{"data":"chart","field":"x"},"range":"width","nice":true},{"type":"linear","name":"y","domain":{"data":"chart","field":"y"},"zero":false,"range":"height","nice":true},{"domain":{"data":"chart","field":"series"},"type":"ordinal","name":"color","range":"category10"}],"version":2,"marks":[{"type":"line","properties":{"hover":{"stroke":{"value":"red"}},"update":{"stroke":{"scale":"color","field":"series"}},"enter":{"y":{"scale":"y","field":"y"},"x":{"scale":"x","field":"x"},"stroke":{"scale":"color","field":"series"},"strokeWidth":{"value":2.5}}},"from":{"data":"chart"}}],"height":100,"axes":[{"type":"x","scale":"x","format":"d","properties":{"title":{"fill":{"value":"#54595d"}},"grid":{"stroke":{"value":"#54595d"}},"ticks":{"stroke":{"value":"#54595d"}},"axis":{"strokeWidth":{"value":2},"stroke":{"value":"#54595d"}},"labels":{"fill":{"value":"#54595d"}}},"grid":false},{"type":"y","scale":"y","format":"d","properties":{"title":{"fill":{"value":"#54595d"}},"grid":{"stroke":{"value":"#54595d"}},"ticks":{"stroke":{"value":"#54595d"}},"axis":{"strokeWidth":{"value":2},"stroke":{"value":"#54595d"}},"labels":{"fill":{"value":"#54595d"}}},"grid":false}],"data":[{"format":{"parse":{"y":"integer","x":"integer"},"type":"json"},"name":"chart","values":[{"y":10,"series":"y","x":1},{"y":12,"series":"y","x":2},{"y":6,"series":"y","x":3},{"y":14,"series":"y","x":4},{"y":2,"series":"y","x":5},{"y":10,"series":"y","x":6},{"y":7,"series":"y","x":7},{"y":9,"series":"y","x":8}]}],"width":250}</graph> caption=A caption fullwidth=no

}} For example, to insert the {{Graph:Chart}} generated by 

{{Graph:Chart
 |width=250|height=100|type=line
 |x=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8|y=10,12,6,14,2,10,7,9
}}

in a frame, simple put the graph code in |1= 

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Filler frame-v2
 |1=
{{Graph:Chart
 |width=250|height=100|type=line
 |x=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8|y=10,12,6,14,2,10,7,9
}}
 |caption=A caption
 |fullwidth=no
}}

to get the framed Graph:Chart on the right.

If writing a 'full width' article, change |fullwidth=no to |fullwidth=yes.

Two-column vs full width styles

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-end-v2|fullwidth=yes}} {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-start-v2|fullwidth=yes}} If you keep the 'normal' preloaded draft and work from there, you will be using the two-column style. This is perfectly fine in most cases and you don't need to do anything.

However, every time you have a |fullwidth=no and change it to |fullwidth=yes (or vice-versa), the article will take that style from that point onwards (|fullwidth=yes → full width, |fullwidth=no → two-column). By default, omitting |fullwidth= is the same as putting |fullwidth=no and the article will have two columns after that. Again, this is perfectly fine in most cases, and you don't need to do anything.

However, you can also fine-tune which style is used at which point in an article.

To switch from two-column → full width style midway in an article, insert 

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-end-v2}}
{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-start-v2|fullwidth=yes}}

where you want the switch to happen.

{{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-block-end-v2}}

where you want the switch to happen.
