New page

{{Documentation subpage}}


== Inserting a photographer's name using the photographer template ==
The {{tl|photographer}} template is a metatemplate that uses the information stored in [[:Category:Photographer templates|photographer templates]]. It works
* as an [[:Category:Inline templates|inline template]] to display a photographer's name and additional information,
* as a [[:Category:Category header templates|category header template]] to display a header for the photographer's model category.

=== Inline template ===
==== Functionality ====
In the simplest case, the template only displays the photographer's name, but is has several extra featues. It

* automatically displays a link to the photographer's article if this article exists,
* displays only normal text if the photographer does not have an article yet, but will automatically turn into a link if such an article is created,
* automatically displays further information on the photographer (website link, location) if you activate this feature,
* automatically displays new photographer data in your article if it changes (e. g. new website) so that you will never have to rewrite your article,
* automatically adds a category to the article the photographer is mentioned in, so that your model is listed on the photographer's page,
* offers the possibility to suppress the category addition to an article,
* displays an error if you do not specify a name.

==== Syntax ====
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>photographer|''<name>''|link=''<text>''|location=''<text>''|nocategory=''<text>''}}

<code>'''''<name>'''''</code>
* Text. The name of the photographer.
* Required.
* Please note that this parameter has no name. Simply type the photographer's name '''without''' a parameter name.

<code>'''link'''</code>
* Any text. You can use "1", "y" or whatever you like. As soon as the parameter has any content, the home page link is displayed.
* Optional. <code>''<text>''</code> or the whole parameter <code>link=''<text>''</code> can be omitted.

<code>'''location'''</code>
* Any text. You can use "1", "y" or whatever you like. As soon as the parameter has any content, the location is displayed.
* Optional. <code>''<text>''</code> or the whole parameter <code>location=''<text>''</code> can be omitted.

<code>'''nocategory'''</code>
* Any text. You can use "1", "y" or whatever you like. As soon as the parameter has any content, no category is added to your article.
* Optional. <code>''<text>''</code> or the whole parameter <code>nocategory=''<text>''</code> can be omitted.
* '''Important:''' It is highly recommended that you '''always''' specify this parameter on pages that are '''not''' model articles (e. g. on a photographer page: ''"His work was influenced by <nowiki>{{photographer|Steve Diet Goedde|</nowiki>'''nocategory=1'''}}."''). Otherwise the photographer would be listed as a big bust model on {{photographer|Steve Diet Goedde|nocategory=1}}'s page.
* '''Important:''' You should also specify this parameter if you mention a photographer on the page of a model that has '''not''' worked with him, but is otherwise related to him (e. g. ''"At Glamourcon 42 she was seen together with photographer <nowiki>{{photographer|XY|</nowiki>'''nocategory=1'''}}."''). Otherwise she would be listed on XY's page as if she had worked with him.

==== Examples ====
; Article exists
* <code><nowiki>{{photographer|Gil Perron}}</nowiki></code> gives {{photographer|Gil Perron|nocategory=1}}.
* <code><nowiki>{{photographer|Gil Perron|link=1}}</nowiki></code> gives {{photographer|Gil Perron|link=1|nocategory=1}}.
* <code><nowiki>{{photographer|Gil Perron|link=ok|location=y}}</nowiki></code> gives {{photographer|Gil Perron|link=ok|location=y|nocategory=1}}.
* <code><nowiki>{{photographer|Gil Perron|location=yes}}</nowiki></code> gives {{photographer|Gil Perron|location=yes|nocategory=1}}.

; Article does not exist
* <code><nowiki>{{photographer|The Honorable|link=1|location=1}}</nowiki></code> gives {{photographer|The Honorable|link=1|location=1|nocategory=1}}.

; Required and optional parameters
* <code><nowiki>{{photographer|link=1|location=1}}</nowiki></code> gives {{photographer|link=1|location=1|nocategory=1}}.

==== Usability ====
There are no restrictions. The template can be used anywhere within the text of an article.

You should, however, be aware that the layout of your text may change in an undesirable way if you specify all parameters for a photographer who does not have a page yet. The simple sentence

: <code><nowiki>{{photographer|Hexvoodoo|link=1|location=1}}</nowiki> always wanted to start a career as a photographer.</code>
: "Hexvoodoo always wanted to start a career as a photographer."

can become

: "[[user:Hexvoodoo|Hexvoodoo]] ([http://www.boobpedia.com home page]), Boobtown, Boobland always wanted to start a career as a photographer."

if he really gets a photographer page some day. :-)

=== Category header template ===
==== Functionality ====
If used as a category header, the template shows the information in a typical header that can be used in categories like {{cl|performers by photographer}}. If the person has other categories like '''actresses''', '''films''', '''images''' or '''fashion images''', they do not have to be added manually: They are automatically detected and displayed.

==== Syntax ====
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>photographer|''<name>''|header=''<text>''}}

<code>'''''<name>'''''</code>
* Text. The name of the photographer.
* Required.
* Please note that this parameter has no name. Simply type the photographer's name '''without''' a parameter name.

<code>'''header'''</code>
* Any text. You can use "1", "y" or whatever you like. As soon as the parameter has any content, a category header will be displayed instead of the inline text.
* Required (if a header is to be displayed).

All other parameters are ignored. The '''nocategory''' parameter is not necessary; a category will not be added to the page the template is used on as a header.

==== Examples ====
* <code><nowiki>{{photographer|Gil Perron|header=1}}</nowiki></code> gives

{{photographer|Gil Perron|header=1}}.

==== Usability ====
If used as a header, the template should only be added at the top of category pages.

=== Changing photographer data ===
Please note that the {{tl|photographer}} template itself does '''not''' store any information about a single photographer. It is only a metatemplate that uses the specific photographer templates to display the desired data.

If you want to change the data of a photographer (for example when his website has changed), go to the photographers own template and change it.

;Example:
To change {{photographer|Gil Perron|nocategory=1}}'s website,
* go to {{cl|Photographer templates}};
* choose Gil Perron's template and click on the '''edit''' tab;
* follow the instructions given in the section '''If you want to change the photographer's data:'''.
