Template documentation

UsageEdit

This template should be added to the top of articles on cards which contain one or more unofficial names (that is, card pages which list unofficial translations of the card's name), per the guidelines at Yu-Gi-Oh!:Arabic card names guidelines. It takes up to 15 unnamed parameters with one language name per parameter.

{{Unofficial name|Arabic}}

results in

The Arabic name given is not official.

{{Unofficial name|Arabic|Chinese}}

results in

The Arabic and Chinese names given are not official.

{{Unofficial name|Italian|Portuguese|Thai}}

results in

The Italian, Portuguese and Thai names given are not official.

Order of the languages generally doesn't matter, but for maintenance reasons, alphabetical sorting is preferred.

This template automatically categorizes pages into subcategories of Category:Card pages with an unofficial name. The following languages are currently supported (note that not all corresponding categories may exist yet):

Unsupported languages are displayed as entered and cause the page to be categorized under Category:Card pages with a nonstandard unofficial name. Support for additional languages is added on request on the talk page or as encountered during deployment.

SubtemplatesEdit

There are two subtemplates to this template:

{{Unofficial name/category}} - handles the dirty details of categorizing card pages, so that the code doesn't have to be changed in a million different places to add a single new language
{{Unofficial name/cat header}} - a boilerplate header for the per-language subcategories of Category:Card pages with an unofficial name, as listed above

The above documentation is transcluded from Template:Unofficial name/doc. (edit \| history) Editors can experiment in this template's sandbox (create) and testcases (create) pages. Please add categories and interwikis to the /doc subpage. Subpages of this template.
