This is a documentation subpage for Template:Lowercase title. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template should not be substituted. |
It is used to decapitalize the first letter of the page's name in the title at the top of the page.
Usage
Simply add {{lowercase title}}
at the top of a page (and optionally, at the top of its talk page). There are no parameters. Examples:
Page name | Will display |
---|---|
EBay, IPod, etc. | eBay, iPod, etc. |
Talk:EBay | Talk:eBay |
Attention
When using the template on redirect pages, the template must be moved after the redirect. Otherwise it will break the redirection. This, however, limits the template to have an effect only when viewing the redirect page directly. Nevertheless, it is still useful in this scenario in order to document the proper capitalization of a term.
When using on templates, please make sure to wrap it with a <noinclude> tag, so that transcluded pages don't get affected.
Limitations
The template does NOT work together with other title modification templates. In this case you need to use {{DISPLAYTITLE}}
instead and make sure it's the last DISPLAYTITLE on the page. For example, to make "eZone" italic and lowercase, use {{DISPLAYTITLE:''eZone''}}
.
Comparison
Template | Involves | Correct name | Actual article name |
---|---|---|---|
{{Italic title}} | Title in italics | To Kill a Mockingbird | To Kill a Mockingbird |
{{Lowercase title}} | Lowercase first character | eBay | EBay |
{{Correct title|reason=bracket}} | < > [ ] { } | Benzo[a]pyrene | Benzo(a)pyrene |
{{Correct title|reason=#}} | # | Pilot #5 | Pilot No. 5 |
{{Correct title|reason=:}} | / : | DK: King of Swing | DK King of Swing |
{{DISPLAYTITLE}} | Various | _NSAKEY | NSAKEY |
Technical notes
This template wraps the magic word DISPLAYTITLE so that it works automatically in any namespace (main, talk, template, etc.) to decapitalise the first letter of the name of a page it is transcluded on.
Here is the actual script:
/* Page using a lowercase title, with or without {{lowercase}} */
SELECT page_title, pp_value AS displaytitle
FROM page
JOIN page_props ON pp_page=page_id AND pp_propname="displaytitle"
WHERE page_namespace=0
AND CONVERT(pp_value USING utf8mb4) COLLATE utf8mb4_bin /* &#greek; */
REGEXP "^([_ :]+|<[^<>]+>)*([[:lower:]]|	[4-6][0-9];)"
