Category:Code

Jump to: navigation, search

Pieces of textual sourcecode (shell scripts, Perl scripts, C programs, patches etc.) of non-trivial length should be placed in dedicated articles called Code/foo.

The article page (Code/foo) itself should contain only the raw source file, without any Wiki markup.

The article's discussion page (Talk:Code/foo) should use the CodeHeader template to provide the file's metadata. Follow this example:

{{CodeHeader|
|filename=foo  (filename this should be saved as, preferably the same as the foo in Code/foo)
|context=[[primary page were code is introduced]]
|author=[[User:Yourself|Yourself]]
|license=GPL v2 or higher, or GFDL v1.2 or higher  (preferably keep both. ThinkWiki default license is GFDL v1.2)
}}

See the pages in this categories for examples.

When referencing the code, always use this template:

{{CodeRef|foo}}
