Description
For Category:Random templates, will show the possibilities of a template.
It could be used, for instance, to auto-update Template:DYKdb.
Templates that call templates yield incomplete lists: only the caller's possibilities are listed.
Usage
{{Show RandomSelection options|template|mode=mode|pre=boolean}}
Where mode is one of:
list
(default if omitted)gallery
table
raw
|pre=true
preformats the result, analogous to <pre>...</pre>
. This allows copying it as wikitext, as might be useful for debugging.
