Template:User talk other/doc

This is the user talk other meta-template.

This template helps other templates detect if they are on a "User talk:" page or some "other" type of page.

Usage

If the template is on a "User talk:" page, it will return this:



If the template is on any other page, it will return this:



A typical usage case could be to make it so that a template only adds a category when on user talk pages. Thus not adding other pages that just show the template. Like this:

Note that in the first case above the "other 500000" parameter was not used, and in the second example the "user 520000" parameter was left empty.

Demospace
For testing and demonstration purposes this template can take a parameter named demospace.


 * If it has the value user talk it returns the user talk page text.
 * It if has the value other or any other value such as the name of some other namespace it returns the other pages text.
 * If the parameter is empty or undefined, the actual page type determines the result.

Like this:

No matter on what kind of page the code above is used it will return this:



You can make it so your template also understands the demospace parameter. That means you can demonstrate the different appearances of your template in the documentation for your template. Then do like this:
