Description[edit]
Creates a banner noting that the page or section should be split and automatically categorizes the page into Category:Pages to be split.
Parameters[edit]
This template has no mandatory parameters, it is however good practice to always provide the "destination" and "reason" parameter.
"destination" parameter[edit]
You can and should provide the name of the page where parts of the page or section should be moved to (e.g. {{Split| destination = Processed food}}
), however it is not always practical (e.g. when a superpage needs to be split into many subpages). It doesn't matter if the page exists already.
"destination2" parameter[edit]
When pages should be split into more than one page, allows the designation of another destination (e.g. {{Split| destination = Processed food| destination2 = Animal feed }}
)). It doesn't matter if the page exists already.
"reason" parameter[edit]
You should always provide an explanation why you think the page should be split and why to that particular destination - be it as obvious to you as it gets. This can be any text (e.g. {{Split| reason = Processed food is a more generic term for meals and other food. This page currently covers both.}}
).
"section" parameter[edit]
Setting this parameter to any value (e.g. {{Split| section = 1}}
) will change the message from "article" to "section".
"notoc" parameter[edit]
Setting this parameter to true (e.g. {{Split| nocat = true}}
) suppresses adding the page to Category:Pages to be split.
Include this parameter when using the template for testing purposes, like on this page.
Examples[edit]
The template can be used with no arguments:
{{Split}}
producing:
This page is suggested to be split. Reason: Please provide a reason . |
As you can see the template complains if you don't provide a reason. You should therefore always provide one:
{{Split| destination = Meals | reason = Meals are a specific type of food that needs its own discussion| nocat = true}}
producing:
This page is suggested to be split. Destination: Meals . Reason: Meals are a specific type of food that needs its own discussion. |
A specific section can be designated for moving:
{{Split| destination = Meals | reason = This section should be its own page as well | section = 1 }}
producing:
This section is suggested to be split. Destination: Meals . Reason: This section should be its own page as well. |
Up to two destinations can be designated. This can be combined with section or not
{{Split| destination = Meals | destination2 = Kibble | reason = This section could be two whole pages by itself | section = 1 }}
producing:
This section is suggested to be split. Destination: Meals and Kibble. Reason: This section could be two whole pages by itself. |
