Templates
This help page will orient new Wikisource editors to the templates that are most commonly used while editing.

See also the template category tree: Wikisource templates

Templates are shortcuts placed within sets of double curly brackets to perform various functions throughout Wikisource. As you proofread and edit texts in Wikisource, you can use templates to aid in formatting, navigation, and and a variety of other tasks.

Formatting Templates

সম্পাদনা

Formatting templates are used to change the way that text displays when being read.

Change text case with {{uc}} (upper case), {{lc}} (lower case), {{small-caps}} and {{capitalize}}. While it is OK to omit the use of the upper case, lower case, and capitalize templates altogether, where they are used they should only be inserted where the choice of case in the work is a formatting decision (ex. special formatting in a work's title), rather than as required for spelling or grammar (ex. in an acronym).

Template Example Result
{{uc}} {{uc|uppercase}} টেমপ্লেট:Uc
{{lc}} {{lc|LOWERCASE}} টেমপ্লেট:Lc
{{small-caps}}, {{sc}} {{sc|Small Caps}} Small Caps
{{capitalize}} {{capitalize|capitalize}} টেমপ্লেট:Capitalize

All Wikisource size templates are relative to the default size. There are two kinds of sizing template: inline and block templates. Inline templates are suitable for use within a paragraph, but can't handle paragraph breaks, and do not adjust line spacing. Block templates can handle paragraph breaks, and adjust line spacing, but are not suitable for use within a paragraph, as they will cause a paragraph break.

Inline template  Block template  Size Sample
{{smaller}} {{smaller block}} 90% আমার সোনার বাংলা আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি,
{{fine}}| {{fine block}} 92%

আমার সোনার বাংলা আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি,

100% আমার সোনার বাংলা আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি,
{{larger}} {{larger block}} 120% আমার সোনার বাংলা আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি,
{{x-larger}} {{x-larger block}} 144% আমার সোনার বাংলা আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি,
{{xx-larger}} {{xx-larger block}} 182% আমার সোনার বাংলা আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি
{{xxx-larger}} {{xxx-larger block}} 207% আমার সোনার বাংলা আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি
{{xxxx-larger}} {{xxxx-larger block}} 249% আমার সোনার বাংলা আমি তোমায় ভালবাসি

Indenting and Alignment

সম্পাদনা

Text is by default aligned left, but where it is required to manually align text to the left, use {{left}}. To float a block of text to the left without affecting text alignment within the block, use {{float left}} or {{block left}}.

To align text to the right, use {{right}}. To float a block of text to the right without affecting text alignment within the block, use {{float right}} or {{block right}}.

To center text, use {{center}} (or {{c}}). To float a block of text to the center without affecting text alignment within the block, use {{block center}}.

Template Example Result
{{left}} {{left|this text<br/>is left justified}}
this text
is left justified
{{center}}, {{c}} {{center|this text<br/>is center justified}}
this text
is center justified
{{right}} {{right|this text<br/>is right justified}}
this text
is right justified
{{block left}}, {{float left}} {{block left|this block of text<br/>is left justified}}
this block of text
is left justified
{{block center}} {{block center|this block of text<br/>is center justified}}

this block of text text
is center justified

{{block right}}, {{float right}} {{block right|this block of text<br/>is right justified}}
this block of text
is right justified


To indent the first line of a paragraph, the template {{text-indent}} is available. Use {{nodent}} to "un-indent" a paragraph within the block. Note replicating indented paragraphs is typically not done in works transcribed here, and paragraphs are separated by a blank line.

To indent every line of a paragraph except the first, use {{hanging indent}} (or {{hi}}) or {{outdent}}. To indent a block of text left, use the colon (:) before the block. For more control, the template {{left margin}} is available. Template {{dent}} combines the functionality of {{left margin}}, {{text-indent}} and {{hi}}

To insert a fixed gap in text, use {{gap}}

Template Example Result
{{text-indent}}, {{nodent}} {{text-indent|2em|


This paragraph of text has its initial line indented. This is not standard practice. Only use where there is a specific reason to do so.

This paragraph, and any following paragraphs, will also have its initial line indented.

{{nodent|Unless you use "nodent". This paragraph does not have its initial line indented.}}

}}

{{dent}} {{dent|4em|-2em|This block of text is formatted with both a left margin and a hanging indent}}

Character formatting

সম্পাদনা

To drop the initial character of a paragraph, use {{dropinitial}}. To replicate a large initial character that does not descend into the paragraph, use {{largeinitial}}

To replicate a inline straight line (usually indicating missing or redacted text) use {{bar}} as multiple m-dashes sometimes render as a dashed line.

To create a large brace spanning multiple lines of text, use {{brace}} or {{brace2}}. "brace" is limited to use with or in a table, "brace2" may be used anywhere.

Some works, especially older ones, use ligatures, diacritics, and alternate letterforms. Whether or not to transcribe this formatting is left up to the transcriber. These characters may be hard coded, or entered with templates. Where it is desirable to replicate the long s (টেমপ্লেট:Ls, টেমপ্লেট:LS) in older works, templates {{long s}} or {{ls}} and {{long S}} or {{lS}} are available. Note these templates now require the addition of some lines to your CSS or Javascript pages to display. For the descending f, (টেমপ্লেট:F), use {{f}}. Ligatures of various letter combinations can be found in Category:Ligature templates. Templates to assist in the entering of diacritics can be found in Category:Diacritic templates

Templates {{'}}, {{(}} and {{)}} allow for the insertion of the special characters টেমপ্লেট:', টেমপ্লেট:(, and টেমপ্লেট:) where it would otherwise be difficult or impossible due to wikimarkup.

Display of Greek quotes, etc. can be improved with the use of {{polytonic}}.

Use {{rule}} in preference of "----" for the creation of horizontal lines spanning the page. In addition, rule can create horizontal separators of any length. For more fancy lines, {{custom rule}} is available.

For breaking up discontinuous runs of pages, for example when separating blocks of transluded front and end matter (ex. Title Page, Dedication, Contents) to one page, use {{page break}}

General formatting

সম্পাদনা

Text can be colored using the {{greyed}} and {{red}} templates. Red text was often used as a highlight in older works, especially on the title page. Greyed text can be used to indicate (important) text that has been written or typed onto the original document. {{RunningHeader}} or {{rh}} creates a left justified, a centered, and a right justified block of text all on the same line, and is most often used in the Page namespace, in the header field to replicate page headers. {{gap}} is used wherever a gap of greater than one space is required.

Template Example Result
{{greyed}}, {{red}}, {{green}} {{greyed|grey text}}, {{red|red text}}, {{green|green text}} grey text, red text, green text
{{RunningHeader}} or {{rh}} {{RunningHeader|Left text|Center text|Right text}}
Left text

Right text
{{gap}} text with a{{gap|5em}}gap! text with a gap!
  • {{multicol}}, {{multicol-break}}, {{multicol-section}}, {{multicol-end}}, this template uses a table to create multiple columns of text. You need to place the breaks explicitly, but they will never move.
  • {{div col}}, {{div col end}}, which uses CSS3 properies to create columns dynamically. The reader's browser will choose where best to put the breaks, so the layout cannot be guaranteed not to change. This one is good for lists, as you don't need to worry about placing {{multicol-break}}s.

Proofreading templates

সম্পাদনা

Proofreading templates are used during proofreading to manage the process of transclusion to the main namespace.

Template You type You get
{{Hyphenated word start}} or {{hws}} This page ends with the split word "{{Hyphenated word start|abso|absolutely}} This page ends with the split word "abso-
{{Hyphenated word end}} or {{hwe}} {{Hyphenated word end|lutely|absolutely}}," split between two pages. -lutely," split between two pages.
{{nop}} Used where the end of a page is also end of a paragraph.

NB: The hyphenated word start and hyphenated word end should be paired across two pages in the Page namespace. They will appear correctly as one, unhyphenated word when transcluded to the main namespace.

Article-specific templates

সম্পাদনা

Some templates are designed for specific articles in Wikisource. They can be found in Category:Specific article templates.

Housekeeping templates

সম্পাদনা

Some templates are not designed for "inline" use in a work, but are used to keep track of things that need to be fixed or indicate the applicable licensing. Please see the following pages for these templates:
