This is a documentation subpage for Template:GlobalMark.
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template is designed to place a uniform marker on all wiki pages which have been curated to build the Wazeopedia Global wiki instance.


Usage

Using this template will perform 4 actions:

  • Place a small Wazeopedia icon on the top right of the page, alongside the page title, which links to the welcome thread from Wonderlerm introducing the Wazeopedia project.
  • Add a hatnote to the top of the page marking it as a global page with the same link.
    Template:GlobalEdit/visible
    • Add the following text inside a <!--comment code--> at the top of the wiki markup code for page, visible when editing the page.
      <!--<noinclude></nowiki></noinclude>
       #####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----
       ####    This page has been curated   ####
       ####    to be included in the new    ####
       ####     Wazeopedia - GLOBAL Wiki.   ####
       ####    Please do not make any       ####
       ####    edits on this page without   ####

       ####    If a specific forum thread   ####
       ####    for this page doesn't exist  ####
       ####    please start one.            ####
       ####        www.waze.com/forum/      ####
       ####        viewforum.php?f=276      ####
       #####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----#####-----#####-->
      • This text can be added by itself without the visible banner to individual sections using the |section=yes parameter.
    • Add a [[Category:Wazeopedia Global Page]] tag to be displayed at the bottom of the page, and enable easy tracking and grouping.

    Directions

    To perform all these functions go to the page you would like to mark, and click on top to edit the entire page. (Do not click the edit link at the top of a section, click the edit link at the top of the page.)

    1. At the very top of the page add the following code;
      {{subst:GlobalEdit}}
    2. Don't forget to add an Edit Summary to the effect of "Making as global wiki page".
    3. Save your edit, and confirm your results.
