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. |
Usage
- Attention: Please do not subst this template.
Simply add the tag {{lowercase title}}
at the top of a page (and optionally, at the top of its talk page). There are no parameters. The tag will only decapitalize the first letter of the page's name in the title at the top of the page. Examples:
Page name | Will display |
---|---|
EBay, IPod, etc. | eBay, iPod, etc. |
Talk:EBay | Talk:eBay |
Issues
The template does not work together with other title modification templates: you need to use DISPLAYTITLE directly and make sure it's the last DISPLAYTITLE on this page. For example, to make "Example" italic and lowercase, use {{DISPLAYTITLE:''example''}}
.
Technical
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.
