From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage note

Use this box when you add a new type of "things Wikipedians like", you'll see it used on other pages, the usage on a new page is basically:

</div>
<br>
{{User:Lar/Wikipedian navbox}}<!-- if you add a new kind, modify this template or ask Lar to -->
<!-- Please do not remove text above this line! -->

Once your page goes live you want to change the template itself to include your page. Here's an example:

{{ #ifeq: {{SUBPAGENAMEE}} | Wikipedian_Notebook ||*<small>Are you quotable? see [[User:Springeragh/Wikipedian_Notebook|the Wikipedian Notebook]]</small>}}

Copy that example exactly to add yours. The key point here is that the if statement keys off what the page name is (without regard to the name space or subpaging to get to that page) and it expects that the page name is written exactly the way you capitalised it, and that it uses '_' for spaces in the name. If you don't get the name exactly that way, the IF fails... it's not the end of teh world, the page just shows itself in the list.
