Template:Multistub/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Multistub.
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This template can be used to transclude multiple stub templates into a single article while only one stub is displayed on that article. This can be useful for including the article in categories for multiple stubs. For example, {{us-bio-stub}} and {{sports-bio-stub}} in an article about an American athlete.

The template requires at least 2 stubs and can be used with up to 6 stubs.

Usage

{{ multistub | stub1 | Stub2 | ... up to .. | stub6 }}

The template automatically adds "-stub" to each stub name so this should not be included when the template is used.

For example, to use the three stubs {{sports-bio-stub}}, {{us-bio-stub}} and {{music-stub}}:

 {{multistub | us-bio | music | sports-bio }}

This would include the three listed stubs in the article, but only show the first one given. In this case the article would show the text to us-bio-stub.
