Template:Unknown
??? |
Purpose
This template creates a table cell with a light grey background and black, larger heavy text which defaults to a triple question mark, as seen above. It is designed to generate a uniform appearance for common cell values in feature and comparison tables with minimal effort, alongside similar templates like:
Yes |
No |
Usage
The template will only function properly when used inside of the standard wikicode for tables, following the |
character(s) which indicate the table cell. In practice, it looks like this when editing and then when parsed:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| Template documented?
| Template categorized?
|-
| {{Unknown}}
| {{Yes}}
|}
Template documented? | Template categorized? |
??? | Yes |
Custom cell text
The question marks can be replaced with any text desired by assigning it to the value of the |1=
parameter or passing it as the only unnamed parameter. For example, either {{Unknown|TBD}} or {{Unknown|1=TBD}}, as both produce the following table cell when transcluded and parsed:
TBD |
Available named parameters
It offers the following named parameters:
|align=
(values of left or right align the cell contents to that horizontal edge, overriding the default center alignment)|bgcolor=
(changes the background color and must be terminated with a semicolon — values may be named CSS colors like moccasin;, long or short RGB hexadecimals like #ccc; or a keyword like transparent to disable the background)|style=
(for any other CSS style elements desired beyond the standard formatting)
