Revision as of 18:41, 3 January 2013

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

1. The selected speed from the following values (no parameter name and values are case insensitive):
   • slow
   • medium
   • fast
   • none
   • 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|slow}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|medium}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|fast}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|none}}

Slow ^{[list all]}

Medium ^{[list all]}

Fast ^{[list all]}

Immobile ^{[list all]}

The case of the value is not important:

{{Infobox Enemy/speed|fASt}}

Fast ^{[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|mushroom}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|lightning}}
{{Infobox Enemy/speed|super}}

unknown ^{[list all]}

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

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

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