Template:Topic cat/latest

[edit] Template documentation

This template is used on over 2700 pages. Changes to this template may cause some server load, and mistakes will be visible on many pages. Please carefully test any edits before making them, and avoid making unnecessary edits.

This template generates a DPL of latest published articles on given topic.

Parameters:

• 1 — optional — category whose stories are to be listed; defaults to {{PAGENAME}}.
• 2 — optional — second category to which results are limited, listing the intersection of the two categories.
• count — optional — number of articles to list; default is 10.
• offset — optional — number of articles to skip at the top of the list; default is 0. For use with id, see below.
• scrollable — optional — if non-blank, provides buttons for scrolling chronologically through the list; requires offset to be a parameter to the displayed page which is passed in to here, and scrolling is not separate for different lists displayed on the same page.
• id — optional — if non-blank, distinguishes between multiple scrollable translcusions of the template on a single page. One scrollable transclusion per page can safely go without an id parameter; each of the others should have an id parameter distinguishing it from all other translcusions of this template on the page.

When passing offset into a scrollable transclusion, the value passed in must be a template parameter with default value 0; for a scrollable transclusion without id, specify offset={{{offset|0}}}, or for a scrollable transclusion with id id, specify offset={{{offset-id}}}. For example, one might have

{{topic cat/latest|{{PAGENAME}}|Original reporting|offset={{{offset-original|0}}}|scrollable=yes|id=original}}

• {{Topic cat}}
