This template uses Lua:

Module:Arbcom election banner (sandbox)

This template is used on pages related to the 2017 Arbitration Committee Elections. It displays links to various related pages, and contains a list of voting guides compiled by Wikipedia editors. The voting guides are displayed in random order, as was decided in the RFC for the 2011 Arbcom elections. The randomization algorithm uses the Lua pseudo-random-number generator, and should be almost indistinguishable from true randomness. To change the order, please purge the page cache.

Usage

{{ACE2017}}

Adding new guides

To add a new guide, edit the template, find the comment , and add a wikilink to your guide in the format | guide# = [[guide page|your username]].

For example, if the existing template code were like this:

<!-- Add candidate guides here. -->
| guide1 = [[User:Example/ACE2017|Example]]
| guide2 = [[User:Example2/Arbcom 2017|Example2]]

You would make the following changes:

<!-- Add candidate guides here. -->
| guide1 = [[User:Example/ACE2017|Example]]
| guide2 = [[User:Example2/Arbcom 2017|Example2]]
| guide3 = [[User:YourUsername/MyGuide|YourUsername]]

An unlimited number of guides may be added.
