Template creation
Style guidelines
Template width should use percentages (80%, etc.). If a fixed width is used, the template should less than 260px wide, the image inside the template should be less than 250px (the mobile version shows an error if it is larger than this size). Icons should be smaller than 100px.
In general, the horizontal bar type uses a percentage to determine the width. Information templates on top of pages use pixels (px) to determine the width.
Documentation
To make the template easier to use, documentation is often required when writing functional templates. There are two ways to embed documentation, one is directly through inlining with the template <noinclude>Template documentation</noinclude>
, the other is adding {{Documentation}}
.
