Template:User toolbox/doc

Shows various links to counters and other user stats tools, various sections, followed by an Actions with tasks that someone (usually administrators) may take with regard to a user. Note that many of these are punitive; the |simple=y option should usually be used to suppress this section, and those relating to advanced user types like admins, bureaucrats and stewards, because they're usually not relevant.

Usage

Initial visibility: currently defaults to autocollapse

To set this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:

• |state=collapsed: {{User toolbox|state=collapsed}} to show the template collapsed, i.e., hidden apart from its title bar
• |state=expanded: {{User toolbox|state=expanded}} to show the template expanded, i.e., fully visible
• |state=autocollapse: {{User toolbox|state=autocollapse}}
  • shows the template collapsed to the title bar if there is a {{navbox}}, a {{sidebar}}, or some other table on the page with the collapsible attribute
  • shows the template in its expanded state if there are no other collapsible items on the page

If the |state= parameter in the template on this page is not set, the template's initial visibility is taken from the |default= parameter in the Collapsible option template. For the template on this page, that currently evaluates to autocollapse.

Add {{User toolbox|1=Username}} to a page to display a user's links in the toolbox. If added to a user page, it will automatically get the username. If used on a subpage, specify the username manually or use {{User toolbox|{{ROOTPAGENAME}}}}. If used outside of user space, e.g. in the "Wikipedia talk:" namespace, the username must be specified.

Typical example

{{User toolbox|1=Example}}

yields (when expanded):
