Function

This is the message box meta-template.

It is used to build message box templates such as Template:Docinfo/draft. It offers several different colours. It would use default images if no image parameter is given and it has some other features, but these features are not availabe at present.

This meta-template is a provisional subset of MediaWiki's mw:Template:Mbox. Please be aware that all appearences should be determined by CSS style settings in MediaWiki:Common.css, althogh they are spcified directly in this template in a makeshift manner. Please feel free to edit this template to fix it, or improve it with richer appearances.

{{documentation mbox
