This template provides a uniform design for block pages.
<onlyinclude>{{ {{{1|Block}}} |title= |image= |image2= |image3= |invimage= |invimage2= |invimage3= |invimage4= |type= |dirt= |maxeu= |storage= |eu_use= |eu_use2= |tool= |stackable= |data= |fluidspeed= |movespeed= }}</onlyinclude>
Please note the unusual markup at the beginning and end; copy it verbatim if you are creating a new block page. Also note that if the item has multiple data values, use |multipledata=
instead of |data=
. See below:
New parameters are marked in bold.

Transcluding block pages[edit]
The unusual header <onlyinclude>{{ {{{1|Block}}}
and footer are there so that block pages can be transcluded (used like templates) into other pages. Specifically, this allows the use of {{Safe get}}
to get specific data fields out of the infobox header in the block page. Here's some examples:
Code | Result |
---|---|
{{Safe get|Macerator|tntres}}
|
ERROR: Macerator does not properly transclude Template:Block |
{{Safe get|Macerator|tool}}
|
ERROR: Macerator does not properly transclude Template:Block |
[[File:{{Safe get|Macerator|image}}]]
|
[[File:ERROR: Macerator does not properly transclude Template:Block]] |
{{Safe get|Macerator|non-existing field}}
|
ERROR: Macerator does not properly transclude Template:Block |
{{Safe get|Main Page|tntres}}
|
ERROR: Main Page does not properly transclude Template:Block |
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 Blast Resistance and Hardness that auto-update whenever the main values are changed.
See {{Blast Resistance Table}}
for a simple example of how to use this functionality to automatically build tables.

This is the documentation page, it should be transcluded into the main template page. See Template:Doc for more information.
