Template:Hastranscript/doc

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

Template:Hastranscript invokes function main in Module:Hastranscript using Lua.

The {{Hastranscript}} template is used to indicate and link to/transclude a transcript page for any given article.

Usage

{{hastranscript|type|link}}

{{hastranscript|transclude=yes}}
{{hastranscript|page|transclude=yes}}
{{hastranscript|page1|page2|...|transclude=yes}}

Parameters

There are two forms of usage for hastranscript. The first generates a messagebox linking to the full transcript page (and that's it); this box is generated by Template:Hastranscript/t. The second will transclude the contents of the transcript page onto the current page; this should be used for shorter transcripts, generally.

Link box

• type - Optional (required if specifying link). Possible types are:
  • npc - This option also adds a link to a list of other transcripts (currently available on the wiki) the NPC speaks in; the list is populated via Template:Transcript list.
  • pet
  • quest
  • miniquest
  • event
  • item
  • scenery
• link - Optional. If the dialogue page is not found at Transcript:{{PAGENAME}} (which should only be the case in exceptional circumstances), used in place of the default link.

Transclusion

• transclude=yes - required to enable transclusion
• page - optional, the name of the page to transclude (without 'Transcript:'); will default to {{PAGENAME}} if not specified
  • page1, page2, ..., pageN - multiple mw.pages to transclude, if desired
