| == Transcluding block pages ==
| |
| The unusual header <code><nowiki><onlyinclude>{{ {{{1|Block}}}</nowiki></code> and footer are there so that block pages can be transcluded (used like templates) into other pages. Specifically, this allows the use of {{tl|Safe get}} to get specific data fields out of the infobox header in the block page. Here's some examples:
| |
|
| |
| {| class="wikitable"
| |
| ! Code
| |
| ! Result
| |
| |-
| |
| | <code><nowiki>{{Safe get|Cobblestone|tntres}}</nowiki></code>
| |
| | {{Safe get|Cobblestone|tntres}}
| |
| |-
| |
| | <code><nowiki>{{Safe get|Cobblestone|tool}}</nowiki></code>
| |
| | {{Safe get|Cobblestone|tool}}
| |
| |-
| |
| | <code><nowiki>[[File:{{Safe get|Cobblestone|image}}]]</nowiki></code>
| |
| | [[File:{{Safe get|Cobblestone|image}}]]
| |
| |-
| |
| | <code><nowiki>{{Safe get|Cobblestone|non-existing field}}</nowiki></code>
| |
| | {{Safe get|Cobblestone|non-existing field}}
| |
| |-
| |
| | <code><nowiki>{{Safe get|Main Page|tntres}}</nowiki></code>
| |
| | {{Safe get|Main Page|tntres}}
| |
| |}
| |
|
| |
| Although transcluding non-template pages is somewhat unusual, doing it this way allows all the data properties for a block to be defined in the infobox header, next to each other, and right where most people will think to look for them. At the same time, it allows us to make tables of values for things like [[Explosion#Blast_Resistance|Blast Resistance]] and [[Digging#Blocks_by_hardness|Hardness]] that auto-update whenever the main values are changed.
| |
|
| |
| See {{tl|Blast Resistance Table}} for a simple example of how to use this functionality to automatically build tables.
