Dogfennaeth nodyn[gweld] [golygu] [hanes] [puro]

{{Infobox OS version}} is intended for use with computing articles that discuss a particular version or release in a series of graphical operating systems. As of 2006^[update], the only operating systems that fall into this category are Mac OS, Mac OS X, and Microsoft Windows.

Template:Infobox OS is the preferred template for articles on operating system families.

name

Required. The name of the version of the operating system. This should match the name of the article.

For example, "Windows 2000"

family

Recommended. The name of the family/line of operating systems that this version is a part of. This is automatically wikilinked.

For example, "Mac OS X"

logo

Optional. An image path for the logo associated with this operating system. Logos used must comply with Wikipedia:Logos guidelines.

For example, "Image:Microsoft Windows XP Logo.svg"

logo_size

Optional. A width for the image, including the "px"; the default is "250px".

For example, "106px"

screenshot

Optional. A screen shot depicting the operating system in its default configuration. Screen shots should not include any non-standard themes, third-party applications, or personally identifiable information. Also, per Wikipedia:Avoid self-references, no references to Wikipedia should be visible.

For example, "Image:MacOS81 screenshot.png"

screenshot_size

Optional. A width for the screenshot, including the "px"; the default is "290px".

For example, "200px"

caption

Optional. A caption describing the screen shot. Use of the word "screenshot" in the description can be considered redundant, as the template places the image in a section titled "Screenshot".

For example, "Mac OS 8.1 desktop"

developer

Recommended. The name of the company or organization that produced this version of the operating system. This is automatically wikilinked.

For example, "Apple Computer"

website

Recommended. An external link that points to the primary marketing or support web site for this version of the operating system. Try to keep the displayed URL short.

For example, "[http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/ Windows 2000]"

source_model

Optional. A brief description of the distribution method of the operating system's source code. A wikilink to an article is suitable.

For example, "[[Closed source]]"

license

Optional. The software license under which this operating system is available. A wikilink to an article describing the license is suitable, but not necessary.

For example, "[[Commercial software|Commercial]] [[proprietary software]]"

kernel_type

Optional. The type of kernel used with this operating system. A wikilink to an article is suitable.

For example, "[[Hybrid kernel]]"

updatemodel

This somewhat misleading parameter name specifies the methods of operating system update

For example, "[[Windows Update]] and [[WSUS]]"

This template offers some advanced version display capabilities to cover both pre-release and generally available operating systems. In an effort to ensure information about dates is both verifiably correct and useful to readers, the template will insert a {{fact}} tag beside the release date information if no URL is provided. When in doubt... leave it out.

first_release_date

Optional. The general availability date.

Use {{Start date}}, e.g. "{{Start date|2000|02|17}}"

first_release_url

Required if first_release_date is set. An external link that serves as a citation for the release date. This should meet Wikipedia:Reliable sources guidelines. A press release from the developer is preferred.

For example, "http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/1999/Dec99/W2KrtmPR.mspx"

preceded_by

Optional. The operating system succeeded by the current OS.

succeeded_by

Optional. The operating system the current OS was succeeded by.

preview_version

Optional. A version or "build" number for the most recent widely distributed preview version of the operating system. Generally speaking, private or "leaked" builds are not suitable for mentioning on Wikipedia, as this doesn't meet our Wikipedia:Verifiability or Wikipedia:No original research policies.

For example, "Beta 1(build 5112)"

preview_date

Required if preview_version is set. The availability date of this build.

For example, "July 27, 2005"

preview_url

Required if preview_version is set. An external link that servies as a citation for the release date. This should meet Wikipedia:Reliable sources guidelines.

release_version

Optional. A version or "build" number for the most recent release version of the operating system.

For example, "10.4.7"

release_date

Required if release_version is set. The availability date of this release.

Use {{Start date}}, e.g. "{{Start date|2006|06|27}}"

release_url

Required if preview_version is set. An external link that servies as a citation for the release date. This should meet Wikipedia:Reliable sources guidelines. A link to the developer's web site is preferred.

For example, "http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxupdate1047intel.html"

support_status

Recommended. A description of the current status of support from the developer. For operating system versions that have an announced end-of-life date, that should be included. A citation from the developer's web site is also recommended.

For example, "Unsupported as of December 31, 2004."

other_articles

Optional. A list of other Wikipedia articles that contain information specific to this version of the operating system.

For example, "<ul><li>[[Features new to Windows Vista]]<li>[[Development of Windows Vista]]</ul>"
