Usage

Template:TemplateData

Intended for use in Infoboxes, specifically {{Infobox person}} and templates calling Infobox person. {{Marriage}} takes up to three unnamed parameters (name, start date, end date) plus an optional named parameter "end=" to provide the reason for the end of the marriage.

Template parameters

This template prefers inline formatting of parameters.

Datesuggested

Infoboxes already reduce text size to 88%, and MOS:FONTSIZE sets a lower limit for text size at 85% of the normal page font size, so it is not appropriate to use font size reduction when this template is used in an infobox. The example here is produced by: <syntaxhighlight style="font-size:small;" lang="wikitext">

  • None of the parameters are required on their own, but if a template is missing all three of start date, end date, and reason, an error message will be displayed.
  • Use of the first two parameters with |end= (|reason=) will cause a line break between the name and the start date.
  • Use of Template:Dc or Template:Dc for this purpose has been deprecated (see discussion).
  • If the marriage ended with the death of the article's subject, Template:Insource.
  • For either date parameter, only the year will be displayed; if a full date is provided, it is included via a tooltip; i.e., Template:Tla.

Template:Qnote

Tracking categories

  • Populated by template logic; contains invalid/missing dates and unsupported parameters/values.
