Template talk:Documentation

To-Do List

There was a previous documentation style (of which I wasn't aware) before I started hacking the SL Wiki left and right to make the templates 'look more like' Wikipedia (and other MediaWiki-run wikis as well). This is an ongoing work, of course, and I haven't covered everything yet (my estimate is roughly 20% of the 'old' templates; the 'new' ones that I have added were shamelessly copied from Wikipedia — often earlier versions — and the documentation was copied from those as well).

Today, as I was looking at this template, I noticed that there was an earlier format — one that actually respected the many language variants, and which was solidly built on top of the already-existing templates used in the LSL Reference pages. The two formats might be directly compatible with each other: but this requires a bit of Wiki-hacking. For now, I'm keeping the old link, and include the 'new' documentation template as well, before I figure out what exactly is going on under the hood.
