This user knows roughly how a template works.

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This is a dynamic userbox that can be used to mark you out at a specific level of template coding ability. People can then find you to ask questions, or you can then find them, or indeed, communities of people at the same level can form that will further aid the development of the Template namespace.

Usage[edit]

Insert this userbox onto your page with the code:

{{User t|x}}

where x is a value indicating your template proficiency, either a number between 0 and 5 (0 being a complete novice) or the letter "c" if you work a lot on conditional templates.

Parameters[edit]

|1= or first positional parameter (required) indicates the level of template proficiency. Adds the page to the corresponding subcategory of Category:User template coder. See the Levels section for a detailed explanation of the various levels.
|2=c or second positional parameter set to the value "c" (following a level from 0–5 in the first positional parameter) indicates a proficiency with conditional templates. Adds the page to Category:Wikipedians who program conditional templates.
|assist=yes to indicate that you are willing to assist with templates. Adds the page to Category:Wikipedians willing to assist with templates.
|category=no to use this template without adding the page to any Categories as indicated above.
