== Heading displays wrongly in mobile view ==
-- Get required modules.
local getArgs = require('Module:Arguments').getArgs


In mobile but not desktop view, there is no space between ''Documentation'' and the first link: for example I see
-- Get the config table.
:'''Documentation'''{{bracket|view}} {{bracket|edit}} {{bracket|history}} {{bracket|purge}}
local cfg = mw.loadData('Module:Documentation/config')
instead of
:'''Documentation''' {{bracket|view}} {{bracket|edit}} {{bracket|history}} {{bracket|purge}}
This is true both on the mobile webpage and in the Android app, but the desktop view is fine. Using <code>|heading=Documentation&amp;nbsp;</code> as a workaround produces the correct appearance on mobile, but the extra space is then visible in desktop view.

== Background Color Lint error "coming from inside the house" ==
-- Often-used functions.
local ugsub = mw.ustring.gsub
local format = mw.ustring.format


While resolving [[Special:LintErrors/night-mode-unaware-background-color|Lint background color]] error messages, I've noticed that the occasional article's error will trace all the way back to [[Template:Documentation]] and the ''invoke:documentation'' statement (i.e. the '''''<nowiki>{{#invoke:documentation|main|_content={{ {{#invoke:documentation|contentTitle}}}}}}</nowiki>''''' statement).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Helper functions
--
-- These are defined as local functions, but are made available in the p
-- table for testing purposes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------


A current example is the article for [[Colin Jackson]]:
local function message(cfgKey, valArray, expectType)
* It simply invokes '''''<nowiki>{{Navboxes}}</nowiki>''''' which, in turn, simply invokes '''''<nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki>'''''.  
--[[
*Drilling down into the [https://w.wiki/F8Um Page Information for "Template:Documentation" § Lint Errors] section's link to [https://w.wiki/F8VB View detailed information on the lint errors] then brings us to the ''invoke:documentation'' statement, beyond which point I am unable to navigate further to determine the cause of the background color error.
-- Gets a message from the cfg table and formats it if appropriate.
-- The function raises an error if the value from the cfg table is not
-- of the type expectType. The default type for expectType is 'string'.
-- If the table valArray is present, strings such as $1, $2 etc. in the
-- message are substituted with values from the table keys [1], [2] etc.
-- For example, if the message "foo-message" had the value 'Foo $2 bar $1.',
-- message('foo-message', {'baz', 'qux'}) would return "Foo qux bar baz."
--]]
local msg = cfg[cfgKey]
expectType = expectType or 'string'
if type(msg) ~= expectType then
error('message: type error in message cfg.' .. cfgKey .. ' (' .. expectType .. ' expected, got ' .. type(msg) .. ')', 2)
end
if not valArray then
return msg
end


Typically the root issue behind this Lint error is the use of the 'background:' or 'background-color:' CSS properties without a corresponding 'color:' property (for specifying font color; preferably something that contrasts well with the specified background color).
local function getMessageVal(match)
match = tonumber(match)
return valArray[match] or error('message: no value found for key $' .. match .. ' in message cfg.' .. cfgKey, 4)
end


Is it possible for someone to determine what color-related hi-jinks might be going on behind the scenes (and either remove or complete any incomplete background:/color: property pairings)? Resolving this should presumably clear at least [https://linkcount.toolforge.org/?project=en.wikipedia.org&page=Template%3ANavboxes#transclusions 60K] lint errors (i.e. any pages using [[Template:Navboxes|Navboxes]]).
return ugsub(msg, '$([1-9][0-9]*)', getMessageVal)
end


Many thanks in advance,<br />

: This report is conflating two completely separate issues, which is why you're being led down a garden path.
: Issue 1: There's a lint error somewhere in the navboxes at the bottom of [[Colin Jackson]]. Probably one of the navboxes on that article sets a background-color without a color.
: Issue 2: There's a lint error somewhere on [[Template:Navboxes/doc]], presumably in one of the navboxes called at [[Template:Navboxes/doc#Examples]].
: These two lint errors are independent of each other, and fixing one will have nothing do do with the other. [[User:Pppery|* Pppery *]] [[User talk:Pppery|<sub style="color:#800000">it has begun...</sub>]] 22:34, 25 August 2025 (UTC)

{{Template edit request|Module:Documentation/styles.css|answered=yes}}
I've recently completed some edit requests for editor {{u|SirOlgen}}, who has been working on these lint errors. Template {{tl|Documentation}} is <span class="plainlinks">[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Documentation&action=info '''still throwing this error''']</span>. I'm not well-versed in Lua, tho' I found a background color setting at the top of the [[Module:Documentation/styles.css|styles.css]] module. I don't know how to add the text color, and that is what is needed to fix the lint error. Try to imagine how many templates there are with /doc pages that might benefit from fixing this. Can we hear from a Lua editor? '''''[[User:Paine Ellsworth|<span style="font-size:92%;color:darkblue;font-family:Segoe Script">P.I.&nbsp;Ellsworth</span>]]'''''&thinsp;,&nbsp;[[Editor|<span style="color:black">ed.</span>]]&nbsp;–&nbsp;[[User talk:Paine Ellsworth|''welcome!'']]&nbsp;–&nbsp;<small>04:39, 2 October 2025 (UTC)</small>
:'''PS.''' Later noted that there are other background color settings in that styles.css module.

::More garden paths, but I think I found both rabbits. I added color declarations to the .css page and to [[:Template:Documentation/doc]], which did not require an edit request. – [[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95|talk]]) 12:49, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
:::{{U|SirOlgen}}, of the pages you list in "Issue 2" above, only [[:Template:Navboxes/doc]] and [[:Template:Navboxes/testcases]] are showing errors, probably due to one or more of the example templates on each page. The pages are not protected, so have fun with them once your SO is tired of your attention. – [[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95|talk]]) 12:58, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
::::@[[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]]/@[[User:Paine Ellsworth|Paine Ellsworth]], thanks for the recent assists. The pages listed under ''"Culprits were..."'' above were all updated to clear the color errors as I was going down the garden path. I never did make it back to resume the hunt from where I'd left off.
::::Regarding the persistent {{tl|Navboxes}} color error, I have since noticed that it can be suppressed on pages using that template by explicitly declaring the '''color''' attribute in the ''titlestyle'' parameter ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Colin_Jackson&diff=prev&oldid=1311624612 example]). {{tl|Navboxes/doc}} mentions that the ''titlestyle'' background ''"defaults to #CCCCFF"'', so I figured passing a text color would ensure a complete attribute pair. Wherever it is that this background color defaulting occurs, would adding companion text color defaulting nip this particular issue in the bud? – [[User:SirOlgen|SirOlgen]] ([[User talk:SirOlgen|talk]]) 18:11, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
:::::I believe that I have made color:inherit the default in Template:navboxes as of a moment ago, so you should not have to add titlestyle colors to any articles. Let me know if you notice any problems. I checked the template in both dark and light modes. – [[User:Jonesey95|Jonesey95]] ([[User talk:Jonesey95|talk]]) 18:48, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
::::::Thanks for the module tweak. That does appear to have resolved the issue (with the subs as well), but I'll keep my eyes open going forward. – [[User:SirOlgen|SirOlgen]] ([[User talk:SirOlgen|talk]]) 19:28, 2 October 2025 (UTC)


== Update sandbox icon to match all other templates ==
local function makeWikilink(page, display)
{{fper|Template:Editnotices/Namespace/Template|Template:Editnotices/Namespace/Module|Template:Editnotices/Page/Template:Old moves/doc|ans=y}}
if display then
return format('[[%s|%s]]', page, display)
else
return format('[[%s]]', page)
end
end


I think [[:File:Sandbox.svg|the icon]] that currently appears when viewing the sandbox of a template (which seems to come from [[Module:Documentation/config#L-34]] and [[Template:Template sandbox notice]]) doesn't represent the concept well. (See an [[Template:Format/sandbox|example of how it looks]].) The sand is too brown, the lighting is off (all three objects seem to receive light from different light sources), and the colours are unusual. And it's not even a "sand box"! ''There is no box in the sandbox icon...''
p.makeWikilink = makeWikilink


{{ombox
local function makeCategoryLink(cat, sort)
  |image = [[File:Sandbox.svg|50px|alt=|link=]]
local catns = mw.site.namespaces[14].name
  |text = This is the [[Wikipedia:Template sandbox and test cases|template sandbox]] page for {{#if:|[[]]|[[:{{NAMESPACE}}:{{BASEPAGENAME}}]]__EXPECTUNUSEDTEMPLATE__}}{{#if:{{REVISIONID}}
return makeWikilink(catns .. ':' .. cat, sort)

end
  |<!-- hide when previewing -->
  }}.{{#ifexist:{{#rel2abs: ../testcases}}
  | &#32;See also the companion subpage for [[../testcases|test cases]].
  }}
}}


I think it should be updated to use [[:File:Edit In Sandbox Icon - Color.svg|the standard sandbox icon]], already used in all other sandbox templates, such as [[Template:Sandbox heading]], [[Template:Sandbox notice]], [[Template:Template sandbox]], [[Template:Template sandbox heading]], [[Template:Not a sandbox]], and [[Template:X20|more]].  
p.makeCategoryLink = makeCategoryLink


{{ombox
local function makeUrlLink(url, display)
  |image = [[File:Edit In Sandbox Icon - Color.svg|50px|alt=|link=]]

This icon uses less daunting colours and is more detailed while also adding more items to the box, such as the pencil and the document being changed. [[User:FaviFake|FaviFake]] ([[User talk:FaviFake|talk]]) 16:32, 26 September 2025 (UTC)

:::::FOUND IT! It comes from [[Template:Editnotices/Namespace/Template]] and [[Template:Editnotices/Namespace/Module]].

== Show improve documentation if doc doesn't exists? ==

Should this template be modified to show {{tl|improve documentation}} by default to templates/modules that doesn't have a documentation? This will auto list the template/modules to [[:Category:Templates with missing or incorrect documentation]], which is useful for tracking and fixing.

:I support this. All templates should have documentation, even if it's something basic like "see the parent template for detailed information". What seems obvious to the creator of the template, might not be to others who encounter it and might not be 10 years down the road to no one.

*I'm wondering if it wouldn't be better setting this up as a bot task to allow for a gap between the template creation process and building documentation. I know I've created a number of templates by starting off with a basic functioning and the standard <code>&lt;noinclude&gt; {{((}}documentation{{))}} &lt;/noinclude&gt;</code> ending knowing that I won't be able to build documentation until I'm done working out all the kinks and details in the code, but having that blank documentation section reminds me to come back to instructions once I've finished programming. I would hate to have overzealous gnomes coming in to try to figure out my template while I'm still fixing bugs because it ended up in a tracking category prematurely. At least if a bot were coming in, I'd be able to remove {{tlx|improve documentation}} once it got added if things weren't ready for that step yet.

*:Ideally, if your template still has kinks in it, start it in your userspace or draft space (or /sandbox if it is one). We shouldn't be placing a non-functioning template in the "live" template space. [[User:Gonnym|Gonnym]] ([[User talk:Gonnym|talk]]) 17:57, 2 December 2025 (UTC)

*::I agree with Gonnym. Don't expect unfinished things that is outside the sandbox can't be touched by others. I don't understand why it would be disruptive when {{tl|improve documentation}} is present on templates that lacks documentation, while it clearly reflects the actual situation? So if the project currently has 10,000 templates without documentation, we have to deploy a bot just to add {{tl|improve documentation}} to those 10,000 pages, while a better one-time methods exists? If you don't want your template be flagged, better start it in your sandbox, or not adding {{tl|documentation}} until there is one.

*:: Yes, well that's just the thing, isn't it? Almost nothing operates on a platonic ideal. While I am more than willing, and have frequently built templates in userspace, that's not something that everyone would even think to do, let alone a well-known operating procedure that people follow to any extent. While we do have the draft namespace for articles, there's really no policy for anything but new accounts to even build any content in their private userspace as a matter of course. The point is that when dealing with seemingly simple templates, drafting in userspace and moving into the template namespace is usually more hassle than is warranted, but that doesn't prevent the intricacies of template logic from biting us from time to time. So I reiterate that I would think a parameter for empty documentation that is supported by a maintenance bot would be a more robust option for accomplishing the task.

Revision as of 16:56, 26 December 2025

Template:Used in system Template:Module rating Lua error in Module:Lua_banner at line 113: attempt to index field 'edit' (a nil value). Template:Uses TemplateStyles This module displays a green box containing documentation for templates, Lua modules, or other pages. The {{documentation}} template invokes it.

Normal usage

For most uses, you should use the {{documentation}} template; please see that template's page for its usage instructions and parameters.

Use in other modules

To use this module from another Lua module, first load it with require:

local documentation = require('Module:Documentation').main

Then you can simply call it using a table of arguments.

documentation{content = 'Some documentation', ['link box'] = 'My custom link box'}

Please refer to the template documentation for usage instructions and a list of parameters.

Porting to other wikis

The module has a configuration file at Module:Documentation/config which is intended to allow easy translation and porting to other wikis. Please see the code comments in the config page for instructions. If you have any questions, or you need a feature which is not currently implemented, please leave a message at Template talk:Documentation to get the attention of a developer.

The messages that need to be customized to display a documentation template/module at the top of module pages are MediaWiki:Scribunto-doc-page-show and MediaWiki:Scribunto-doc-page-does-not-exist.
