Template:Comets

Template documentation

Usage

Template {{Comets}}, in its autocollapsed state, should always be added if an article is about a single cometary object. It should be placed between the external links and categories. For numbered comets the template comes before {{PeriodicComets Navigator}}. Using this template automatically adds the page to Category:Cometary object articles. (Use the template with |nonobject=yes for articles that are not about a single cometary object; to exclude it from auto-categorization.)

Initial visibility: currently defaults to autocollapse

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

• |state=collapsed: {{Comets|state=collapsed}} to show the template collapsed, i.e., hidden apart from its title bar
• |state=expanded: {{Comets|state=expanded}} to show the template expanded, i.e., fully visible
• |state=autocollapse: {{Comets|state=autocollapse}}
  • shows the template collapsed to the title bar if there is a {{navbar}}, 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.

• Note: The "Lists" section will display in a collapsed state by default. Use {{Comets|Lists}} to open the "Lists" section. This may also be used in conjunction with the state = named parameter, as described above.
