Purpose

This template draws various colored boxes which can be filled with user content. Should be used to replace instances of N.B.: or similar.

Parameters

 {{NB|<style>|<message>|<<indent>>|<<firstword>>}}
  • style: One of tip,deprecated,mind,warning,important, selects the box style, i.e. the color and the first word (see examples below). If style is not any of the words in the list, a black box without first word is drawn.
  • message: The content of the box (after the first word).
  • indent: (optional) Allows to indent the whole box with regular colon sign. Use multiple ":" signs to get any level of indentation. Can be left empty if no indentation is needed but firstword is required. Any other character than ":" may produce unexpected results!
  • firstword: (optional) Overrides the default first word for any of the predefined styles.


Examples

Regular usage

Without optional arguments these boxes are available: 

 {{NB|tip|This is the clever way of doing it!}}

 {{NB|deprecated|This feature is deprecated and will be removed in the next release}}

 {{NB|mind|You can manually set this via '''SOME_TAG'''}}

 {{NB|warning|Never do this at home!}}

 {{NB|important|You should really consider this!}}

 {{NB|none|Just a box.}}

will produce

Tip: This is the clever way of doing it!


Deprecated: This feature is deprecated and will be removed in the next release


Mind: You can manually set this via SOME_TAG


Warning: Never do this at home!


Important: You should really consider this!


Just a box.

Special features

Replacing the first word while sticking to the warning color scheme (note the empty third argument): 

 {{NB|warning|Really, really don't do this!||CAUTION!!!}}
CAUTION!!! Really, really don't do this!

Indenting with default first word: 

 {{NB|tip|This is indented one level.|:}}
 {{NB|tip|This is indented two levels.|::}}
Tip: This is indented one level.
Tip: This is indented two levels.

Problems and workarounds

The message cannot contain the "=" character because this has a special meaning for named template parameters. Therefore, we have to use the {{=}} template instead: 

{{NB|tip|We highly recommend '''MY_TAG''' {{=}} 42}}
Tip: We highly recommend MY_TAG = 42

Note that using an indented box within a list requires the text after the box to be indented manually: 

 * First item
 {{NB|tip|Second item is also great!|:}}
 :Some more text belonging to first item
 * Second item
  • First item
Tip: Second item is also great!
Some more text belonging to first item
  • Second item

Unfortunately, when using numbered lists the item counter is reset when a box is inserted and requires manual setting of the start value with the li value tag: 

 # Option A
 {{NB|warning|Option B should be avoided!|:}}
 :Some more text belonging to first option
 # <li value="2"> Option B
  1. Option A
Warning: Option B should be avoided!
Some more text belonging to first option
  2. Option B
