Usage
[edit]The {{Usbk}} template is used for showing a userbox and its properties in a table row. The only mandatory parameter is userbox name. Wrap {{usbktop}} and {{usbkbottom}} around uses of this template. You may use {{usbkbreak}} to insert headers/text breaks in lists.
{{Usbk|userbox name}}- Include the full
userbox name, i.e. prefix it withUser:,Template:, orWikipedia:.
{{Usbk|userbox name|param1|param2|param3}}- For a userbox that uses up to 3 unnamed parameters. If your userbox accepts more parameters, use {{Usbkext}}.
{{Usbk|userbox name|2=param1=value1|3=param2=value2|4=param3=value3}}- For a userbox set that uses up to 3 named parameters. (This does not always seem to work.)
{{Usbk|userbox name|category=user category}}- If the userbox adds user pages into a user category under Category:Wikipedians. Do not include the
Category:prefix.
{{Usbk|userbox name|comment=text}}- Show some other additional text in the third column.
Note: If a namespace is not included in the name of the userbox, the "Transclusions" link will be missing the namespace and show the transclusions of a nonexistent page in article space.
Category suppression
[edit]Some userboxes automatically place the page where it is used into a category. These categories are not appropriate for pages such as lists, so some userboxes support a feature to suppress the automatic category. This template invokes category suppression for those userboxes. There are several methods for category suppression, Usbk supports those that use:
|nocat=true|category=|categories=no(see Wikipedia:Category suppression)
Example
[edit]The following code...
{{usbktop}}
{{usbk|Template:User Arizona|category=Wikipedians in Arizona}}
{{usbk|User:UBX/vandalized|n}}
{{usbk|User:Patricknoddy/Userboxes/Lives in}}
{{usbk|User:Patricknoddy/Userboxes/Lives in|Atlanta|Flag of the United States.svg}}

{{usbk|User en-3|comment=Example of a comment in third column: Third level of English knowledge userbox.}}

...displays the following table:
