Template:Ambox/doc

This is the Template:Tl or Article message box meta-template.

MobileFrontend will treat this template as a "page issue". If you don't want that to occur, you may use a different message box template (listed here, but basically any template that does not identify itself as an "ambox" is not an issue). See Reading/Web/Projects/Mobile Page Issues.

Parameters

type

The type parameter defines the colour of the left bar, and the image that is used by default. The type is chosen not on aesthetics but is based on the type of issue that the template describes. The seven available types and their default images are shown below. {{AmboxTemplate:\sandbox | nocat = true | type = speedy | text = type=speedy — Speedy deletion issues, such as Template:Tl. }} {{AmboxTemplate:\sandbox | nocat = true | type = delete | text = type=delete — Deletion issues, such as Template:Tl. }} {{AmboxTemplate:\sandbox | nocat = true | type = content | text = type=content — Content issues, such as Template:Tl and Template:Tl. }} {{AmboxTemplate:\sandbox | nocat = true | type = style | text = type=style — Style issues, such as Template:Tl and Template:Tl. }} {{AmboxTemplate:\sandbox | nocat = true | type = notice | text = type=notice — Notices, such as Template:Tl and Template:Tl. }} {{AmboxTemplate:\sandbox | nocat = true | type = move | text = type=move — Merge, split and transwiki proposals, such as Template:Tl and Template:Tl. }} {{AmboxTemplate:\sandbox | nocat = true | type = protection | text = type=protection — Protection notices, such as Template:Tl and Template:Tl. }}

If no type parameter is given the template defaults to Template:Para.
