Plantilla:Global infobox person/doc/installation preparation

This is a working page to prepare the installation of {{Global infobox person}} in a wiki. It has 3 parts:

  1. a questionnaire to identify key aspects of the installation.
  2. a check list of modules and templates required by the Global infobox, to detect the missing ones and those that, despite existing, collide with those that need to be installed or do not functionally respond to what the Global infobox requires.
  3. a table with all the parameters used and their respective labels, in order to linguistically adjust the labels and, if applicable, the incorporation of parameters in the local language.

Key aspects of installation modifica

Collision

Required modules and templates modifica

Note: The results are in function of language in preferences.


This is a list of all dependencies that Global infobox person has. Most of them are the main or specific templates and modules for this infobox. But it also use a large number of "common templates and modules" across the WPs. May be the name change; it's not a problem if they have same function. The inexistent elements on your WP, should be copied.

However, a few elements may have a coincidence in theirs names but a different functions. In this case, it will require a "ad hoc" analysi and solution.

  • D:module:Coordinates >>> Mòdul:Coordenades. >>> Different name: Verify they have same functionality. Then, make a redirect or copy this element from WD
  • D:module:Infobox person >>> Mòdul:Preinfobox person. >>> Different name: Verify they have same functionality. Then, make a redirect or copy this element from WD
  • D:module:Infobox person/i18n >>> Mòdul:Preinfobox person/i18n. >>> Different name: Verify they have same functionality. Then, make a redirect or copy this element from WD
  • D:module:Infobox person/items >>> Mòdul:Preinfobox person/items. >>> Different name: Verify they have same functionality. Then, make a redirect or copy this element from WD
  • D:module:InfoboxFrame >>> Mòdul:Infobox. >>> Different name: Verify they have same functionality. Then, make a redirect or copy this element from WD
  • D:module:Multilang infotable tools >>> Mòdul:Global infobox tools. >>> Different name: Verify they have same functionality. Then, make a redirect or copy this element from WD
  • D:template:Str find >>> Do not exist. Verify the interwikies are correct. Fix them or copy this element from WD
  • D:template:Unknownvalue >>> Plantilla:Somevalue. >>> Different name: Verify they have same functionality. Then, make a redirect or copy this element from WD

Label values modifica

Note: The results are in function of language in preferences.


This table shows all the parameters that Global infobox person handles. The templates from first block (Pnnn) are able to get data from WD. The templates from the second block (M_xxxx) are manual parameters that don't exist in WD. Third block templates (L_xxxx and a few group of Pnnn) are exclusively oriented to generate labels not directly linked to value parameters. Last block templates (S_xxxx ones) are values for special customization.

what to do ?
  • The goal is to have a short, correct and translated value for labels in the right column (final result).
    • Ignore the lines with "Default Global" empty. They do not show labels in the infobox.
    • The easiest and fastest way is to adjust the local label shown in the third column (local lang..).
    • If it's not possible, you must inform the exception in fourth column (local exception). This information could be with a Qid that fits better than "default Global.." or with a wiki text.
