Template documentation

This template is a part of a suite of subpage templates (listed below) used to manage and maintain all the key minimum editor rank numbers for the various object types and permissions used in WME to control editing restrictions.

Usage

The primary use of this template is to provide the editor rank or value associated with a restricted feature. The simple use of this template is described here. The template has additional parameters intended for the use in the documentation management, but can be used in the rest of the Wazeopedia as needed. Those advanced parameters and usage are covered later in this document.

Usage example:

{{rank | closure}}

Returns:

3

And would be used in a statement like:

Usage example:

The minimum rank to create or edit a road closure is {{rank | closure}}.

Returns:

The minimum rank to create or edit a road closure is 3.

To describe a range using the template, simply change the phrase around the number.

Usage example:

The editor must be rank {{rank | closure}} or higher to create or edit a road closure.

Returns:

The editor must be rank 3 or higher to create or edit a road closure.

Basic parameters

The table below indicates the basic parameters and the resulting returns. The parameters are case insensitive meaning you can enter any case in the template itself. They are listed here with variable case only to help clarify the terms used. In some cases there are multiple parameters available for the same editor rank restriction.

Advanced template parameters

The {{Rank}} template uses the following unnamed parameters:

• Parameter 1 = One of the "Rank" parameters from the first table like city.
• Parameter 2 = One of the following values:
  • |value or no parameter returns the value of the rank parameter from the table, typically a rank number like 4.
  • |parameters returns the list of all valid parameters for that entry, like city and city new.
  • |category returns the category description of the Rank entry used in the Map editor table, like City - Add new.
  • |description returns the description of the entry without punctuation or the value, like The minimum editor rank to create a new city (not add an existing city to an object)

Usage example:

{{rank | city | description}}

Returns:

The minimum editor rank to create a new city (not add an existing city to an object)

Maintenance

Updates to the Editor Rank dataset is done directly in the {{Rank}} template. That one location feeds all sources of that information, so Wiki editors don't need to update multiple locations. This ensures synchronization.

Public table view

The list of parameters is useful for Wiki editors, but mostly useless for end users. For that reason, the public view of these parameters is better presented as categories with the descriptions including the value of the parameter. For those reasons, a second table was created for use on Editing restrictions#Rank table. Expand the table below to see the public view. Click on the black arrows in the header to change the sort order.
