Revision as of 18:06, 11 December 2012

This template offers a multiple choice for defining the speed category of an (enemy) article. It can also automatically categorize a page under that category.

Parameters

• The selected range from the following values (no parameter name and values are case insensitive):
  1. short
  2. wide
  3. infinite
  4. none
  5. any other (non)empty value defaults to: unknown
• nocat: Whether or not to suppress categorization under the chosen category (defaults to false, which means auto categorization).

Note: more category values should be discussed on the discussion page.

Syntax

{{Infobox Enemy/speed|value}}

Examples

Any of the above values may be used like this:

{{Infobox Enemy/speed|short}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|medium}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|wide}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|infinite}}

Short ^{[list all]}

Medium ^{[list all]}

Wide ^{[list all]}

Infinite ^{[list all]}

The case of the value is not important:

{{Infobox Enemy/speed|inFINite}}

Infinite ^{[list all]}

You may also leave the "speed" undefined (which would raise the Enemies of unknown speed maintenance task) by not specifying any valid value, so these all have the same result:

{{Infobox Enemy/speed}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|universe}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|microscopic}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|arrow}}

unknown ^{[list all]}

The nocat parameter may be used to suppress automatic categorization like this (any value will do):

{{Infobox Enemy/speed|short|nocat=true}}

This would render the same result as the first example above, but would not automatically categorize under Category:Short ranged enemies. This feature works both on valid values and the maintenance task mentioned above.
