Template:Preloaded template
 |
This template is used for preloading instead of being directly transcluded or substituted. |
Template documentationEditors can experiment in this template's sandbox (create) and test cases (create) pages.
Subpages of this template.
Purpose
Special:UnusedTemplates is a daily report of templates without transclusions, most of which can be deleted without problem. However, preloaded templates appear unused under normal conditions; techniques such as mw:Extension:Inputbox use the preloaded template on-demand to reduce the need for typing.
This template message informs administrators that deleting the template page it labels may break pages in a non-obvious way. If the preloaded template isn't named template/preload, a link back to the calling template is ideal.
Usage
{{Preloaded template}}
Example
If the documentation subpage doesn't exist and isn't worth creating, {{documentation|content={{Preloaded template}}}} visually separates the notice from the preload.
Hello world!<noinclude>
{{Documentation|content={{Preloaded template}} Used by [[Template:Foo]]}}
</noinclude>
