Template:Igen/coa

Note: This template is used on a lot of pages. In order not to put too much load on the servers, edits should be kept to a bare minimum. Please discuss proposed changes on the talk page first.

Editing a template causes all pages that use the template to be re-rendered. If the template is used often, this can put a lot of load on the servers since it fills up the job queue.
Keep in mind that templates that are used on file description pages also show up on other wikis.

-- This subtemplate is just a stub for the transclusion of Image generation. --
-- Its documentation can be found also in COAInformation, parameter "image". --
-- The input, passed via Igenmod should be either a complete transclusion of --

< Template: Igen/coa

This subtemplate of Image generation describes a CoA SVG – Coat of Arms as a scaleable vector graphic.
Normally a single parameter is or some parameters are passed from template:COAInformation, parameter |image=../../..
but the template can as well function in stand-alone mode, preferably with an Information box |other fields={{Igen/coa|..|..|..}}

For the many different possibilities of description are many different options of parametrizing.

With one parameter:

0• User code – when the template has defined such a code — this is the standard

0• Igen parm – the complete parameter string, {{Igen|...}} in curly brackets

0• Tool name – when another tool and without W3C-errors

0• W3C error – when an Inkscape file has W3C-errors

With more parameters:

0• 2 params – tool and error count

0• 2...5 pars – more specifications

Usage

in Template:COAInformation, the description can occur using either the parameter |image= or |other fields=:

|image=Xx 0 or |image={{Igen/coa|Xx}} or |image={{Igen/coa|I|+|...}} instead of |image={{Igen|I|+|...}}

|other fields={{Igen/coa|Xx}} or |other fields={{Igen/coa|I|+|...}} instead of |other fields={{Igen|I|+|...}}

in Template:Information it can be used with only the parameter |other fields=:

|other fields={{Igen/coa|Xx}} or |other fields={{Igen/coa|I|+|...}} instead of |other fields={{Igen}}
