Template:Module rating/sandbox

This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature state, is considered relatively stable and bug-free, and may be used wherever appropriate. It can be mentioned on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users. To minimise server load and avoid disruptive output, improvements should be developed through sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing.

This is the template sandbox page for Template:Module rating (diff).

Template documentationview edit history purge

This template is used to rate Lua modules by quality. It is placed at the top of the module's /doc subpage. It produces a message informing users about the rating system, and it also places the module into a tracking category.

Usage

Basic usage:

{{module rating|rating}}

Without categories:

{{module rating|rating|nocat=true}}

If {{Module rating}} is used outside the Module namespace, an error message is displayed instead and will be categorized under Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace.

If the documentation subpage is also protected:

{{module rating|rating|reason for documentation protection|action for documentation protection}}

The second and third unnamed arguments correspond to reason and action of {{Pp}} which gets included on the documentation subpage if at least the second unnamed argument is present.

Ratings

The rating should be placed in the first positional parameter. There are six different ratings: pre-alpha, alpha, beta, release, protected, and broken. There are also short alias codes for each of the ratings.

prealpha
pa

This module is rated as pre-alpha. It is incomplete and may or may not be in active development. Do not use it in article namespace pages. A module remains in pre-alpha until its developer, or another editor who adopts it if it is abandoned for some time, considers the basic structure complete.

alpha

a

This module is rated as alpha. It is ready for limited use and third-party feedback. It may be used on a small number of pages, but should be monitored closely. Suggestions for new features or adjustments to input and output are welcome.

beta

b

This module is rated as beta. It is considered ready for widespread use, but as it is still relatively new, it should be applied with some caution to ensure results are as expected.
