Documentation for Template:Locking Standard/Sandbox, which is the test version of Template:Locking Standard

Parameters

Note: Exact capitalization of parameter names matters:

• lede: Lead-in paragraph. There is some default text otherwise. To have no lede paragraph, make sure to set it to a blank value: |Lede=|
• caption: The title above the table (not a wiki heading). Defaults to Xyzyz Locking Standard, where Xyzyz is taking from the page title (and would be the state name if you use Kent's state template scheme)
• title: The title of the first column of lock values (sometimes the only column). Default value is "Default lock"
• title2, title3: Column titles for second and third variants. If you do not specify a title, the column will not appear. No default.
• note, append: text to be added below the table, which can include full wiki markup. If you use note, the text is automatically started with "Note: " in bold (the rest is not automatically bold
• Fwy, Fwy2, Fwy3: The Freeway values, defaults to 4; Fwy is the first column, Fwy2 and Fwy3 are the second and third columns
• MH, MH2, MH3: Major Highway values; defaults to 3 (note that the "m" is uppercase)
• mH, mH2, mH3: Minor highway values, defaults to 2 (note that the "m" is lowercase)
• PS, Street, PS2, Street2, PS3, Street3: Primary Street values and Street values; defaults to 1
• RR, RR2, RR3: Railroad values; defaults to 2
• Ferry, Ferry2, Ferry3: Ferry values; defaults to 5
• Private, Private2, Private3: Private Road segment values. If you do not specify any of these three values, no row will display for Private. If you specify Private2 and/or Private3, but not Private, then Private defaults to 1

Samples

In Locking Standard we have a set minimum standard for locking roads based on segment type. Any road of a certain segment type must be locked at least to the rank (level) in the chart below. Roads may be locked higher for protection and special situations (areas with construction, tricky design, frequent mistakes, imaging inaccuracies, and the like), but should not be locked lower.

A great time to implement these locks is while bringing the road types of an area into compliance with the current US road type standards (FC and highway systems). Lock the roads based on type after they've been set to current US road type standards.

• The above first sample calls the template with no parameters at all, and displays completely default behavior.

Note: This sample uses all defaults for segment lock values, but maxes out all the columns, removes the lead-in text (lede) and adds a "note" at the end

This sample is the same as the previous. However:

• Freeway is set to 5 instead of to 4
• All Freeway values are set to be the same manually, though the additional columns would have inherited the same value (5) anyway from the first column, i.e., the default for columns 2 and 3 is to be the same as column 1, whether column 1 inherits the unspecified default or is set to a different value. The purpose of that is to allow the caller to specify the minimal number of changes from column to column.
• The "note" is changed to the "append" parameter, which functions similarly except without the bolded "Note: " prefix
