Template:Monastery

This template adds an information box to articles about monasteries, convents, sketes and hermitages. Put it at the very top of the article. For parishes, use Template:Parish; for dioceses, use Template:Diocese.

Every field is optional; rows with no value are not shown. If name is left out, the page name is used.

Some older articles put a logo inside name, e.g. name=Example Monastery[[Image:Example logo.jpg|center|Example Monastery]]. This still works, but new articles should use image instead.

Editing this template

Each field is one table row of three lines:

|- style="border-top:1px solid #dcd7c8; vertical-align:top; {{#if:{{{superior|}}}||display:none}}"
! [[Superior]]
| {{{superior|}}}

The #if at the end of the first line hides the row when the field is empty. To add a field, copy a row and change the label and the field name in both places. The box's size, border and background are set once, on the first line ({|). Template:Church, Template:Diocese, Template:Parish, Template:Saint and Template:Monastery use the same layout; keep them matching.
