Project page

Put in the beginning of the project the following line:

{{Project}}

This will put your project into the projects category and it will render the Project info box on the right side of the content. For the Project info box to be shown, you have to edit the 'Your Project Page Name/meta' sub page. Please see in the following section how this file must look like and what meta information can be filled.

Meta sub page

Copy and Paste Template for Projects

The first like has to stay like this. Please do not modify it, as it could break the displaying of the lists or meta info boxes. NOTE: Please remove the optional fields you don't need from the list, otherwise it could have unwanted side effects on the layout.
Stars mark the fields that are mandatory.

Parameter Description

name (mandatory)

Reflects the name of the project. This field has 2 functions:

• Display Name

If you would like to show an other name in the meta information sections, than the name of the page, you can use this field to set a display name. In this case you will have to set the 'wikiPageName' field to the name of the page.

For this skeleton project page it looks like this:

|name=Skeleton

|name=Other DisplayName example
|wikiPageName=Skeleton
