Template:Yyp
This Yy series of templates can create a userbox table that displays a list of userboxes along with their Wikitext and the pages that invoke each userbox template. Templates also display boxes for WikiProjects, portals, and notice boards.
The yy template series comprises the following nine templates:
Template:Yytop
Template:Yytop always comes first to create the three column headings and to size the columns. Template:Yytop may also be used to create a centered table title.
{{yytop|title|headers=}}
where:
title
is the optional table title.headers=
is the optional column headings switch.headers=yes
creates three column headings (default)headers=no
creates no column headings.
Example
{{yytop|Userbox Templates}}
creates:
Wikitext | userbox | where used |
---|
Template:Yytop is very similar to Template:Usbktop except:
- Template:Yytop default sizes the three columns to 390, 250, and 80 pixels respectively.
Template:Usbktop does no default column sizing. - Template:Yytop places the linked labels Wiki markup, userbox, and where used centered at the top of each column.
Template:Usbktop places the labels Code and Result left justified at the top of the first two columns only. - Template:Yytop may be used to create a centered table title.
Template:Yy
Template:Yy creates a single table row with the template Wiki markup, the template box, and a link to the list of pages that link to the called template.
{{yy|template|par1|...|par12}}
where:
template
is the required template name.par1|...|par12
are up to 12 optional template parameters.
A zero-width space ​
may be used to represent a missing parameter.
Example
{{yy|User in New Zealand|5|comment=parameter: number from 1 to 64}}
creates:
{{User in New Zealand
|
|
linked pages parameter: number from 1 to 64 |
Template:Yy is similar to Template:Usbk except:
- Template:Yy will pass up to 12 parameters to the called template.
Template:Usbk will pass no more than three parameters to the called template. - Template:Yy forces all cells to align to the left.
Template:Usbk uses the default object alignment. - Template:Yy uses the same category suppression as Template:Usbk.
Template:Yycat
Template:Yycat creates a reference to a category.
{{yycat|category|link=}}
where:
category
is the required category name.link=
is the optional link to the category. (default=no)
Example

Template:Yytxt
Template:Yytxt creates a row of text in the table.
{{yytop|txt1|txt2|txt3|opt=}}
where:
txt1

creates a line of column-centered text for each columnopt=6
creates a line of right-justified text for each columnopt=7

If all three optional text parameters are blank or missing, a blank row will be inserted.
