− | The '''MediaWiki custom messages''' are a way to create standardized blocks of text. In order to create a new custom message, simply create a page in the MediaWiki namespace, named "MediaWiki:", followed by a name for the message, that contains the text of the message. You may want to consider protecting the messages you create (if you have administrator privileges), but see the talk page for a discussion of this. Please list any custom messages you create on this page. |
||
− | |||
− | There are two major ways to include custom messages, <tt>subst</tt> and <tt>msg</tt>. <tt>subst</tt> makes a copy of the message text and places it where you put the tag after you save an article (substitution), <tt>msg</tt> loads the message and puts it on the page every time you load it. |
||
− | |||
− | In other words, when the message is updated, you do not need to update a page that uses it if you use <tt>msg</tt>. As a guideline, short, temporal messages that will be removed soon should be copied using subst (which has the advantage of showing the message in the wiki source), and standard notices that might remain on a page for months or forever should be transcluded for easy updating. (You should not use <tt>msg</tt> for a message which contain any links which may change in the future. This method doesn't refresh ''"What links here"'' unless ''every'' article containing the <tt>msg</tt> get changed after the modification of the link in the message.) |
||
− | |||
− | When you add new MediaWiki custom messages, please help keep the table in alphabetical order. |
