This template allows for displaying the second portion of the page title as a subtitle.

Cautions

edit

This template is subject to the same restrictions as the {{DISPLAYTITLE}} magic word. In particular, the text of the parameters when concatenated must match the page title.

When used with two parameters, a space is automatically inserted between the title and subtitle when constructing the page name. This allows the common case "Title (subtitle)" to work as {{User:Anomie/Template:Subtitle|Title|(subtitle)}} without requiring the user to remember to explicitly include the space.

When used with four parameters, no space is inserted. This allows for use on a page like "City, Country" as {{User:Anomie/Template:Subtitle|City|, |Country}}. But do note that the second parameter is comma-space, not just comma.

Examples

Bugs

This template should not use inline CSS. Instead, the following should be added to MediaWiki:Common.css:

span.subtitle {
    display:block;
    font-size:75%;
    font-weight:normal;
    line-height:normal;
}
span.subtitle-punctuation {
    display:none;
}
