Template documentation

This documentation is transcluded from Template:SpecialChars/doc. (edit | history)
This template has a sandbox (edit) for editors to experiment.

This template flags potential font/encoding issues for users when an article contains text which may not be renedered correctly on out-of-the-box installations of current operating systems.

Usage

Place at the top of affected articles. Each particular language should have a separate template that calls SpecialChars with the following parameters (as appropriate for that language).


{{ SpecialChars
| image      = 
| special    = 
| fix        = 
| characters =
| error      =
}}

image: (optional) Just the title (no 'image:' prefix) of an image of the characters, ideally legible at 65x50px and either square or slightly wider than tall.
special: The languages or special content the page includes. Free-form, so you can specify as many as you like. Remember to link to the root pages for the characters / language.
fix: Link to a page with the solution (installing fonts etc). This should just be the title of the fix page, unlinked.
characters: The specific type of characters that might be missing (i.e. kanji, kana). Free-form, remember to use links.
error: The rendering error observed (defaults to mojibake). Free-form.
