Template:Description is used in Item articles to create standardized text for properties appearing on an Item's Description Tab.
Usage
It accepts nine optional string parameters: rating, qty, conceal, cost, avail, condition, equipped, wireless, and pan.
- If unset, it displays precanned text appropriate to the value.
- If set to
false, it hides the entire line. - If set to any other value, the text is appended to the base text. The sentence normally ends with a period, but if this option is used, you must include any trailing punctuation. This allows for choices.
It accepts one additional optional string parameter, before, which can be used to manually add list items between the leading text and the first standard item.
It should only be included on pages which also transclude Stub:Description Tab.
