Template:Helpmessage
If you want more help, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. ~~~~
 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Helpmessage}}). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot. |
Usage
[edit]This template is for any editor (though created for the IRC helpers) who wishes to add a helpful note at the end of a message without using the big huge Wikipedia boxes. Small customizations are listed below.
Arguments
[edit]There are two named parameters, and two options for the unnamed parameter.
sig- If
|sig=no, the signature~~~~will not be added to the message. ping- Pass your username to this parameter and "To reply directly to me, start your message with
{{u|Username}}." will be appended to the text.
jaguar- If jaguar is used as the unnamed parameter, {{tps}} will be added at the end of the message.
helpme- If helpme is used as the unnamed parameter, "change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}" will be added to the list of suggestions.
