Template:ProdwarningBLP/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:ProdwarningBLP (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage[edit]

: Suppresses {{First article}} on empty pages (see below).nothanks=yes
: Suppresses "Thank you" message when {{First article}} is used.
New users[edit]
This template incorporates {{First article if new}}. As result, if you use
{{ProdwarningBLP}}
on a talk page that does not yet exist (i.e., new user), a {{First article}} message will be inserted before the ProdwarningBLP notice itself. You can provide a nowelcome=yes
parameter to {{ProdwarningBLP}}
to suppress this behavior. This template also accepts the nothanks=yes
parameter, and passes it to {{First article if new}}.
