Description of the new Glossary template

New page

== new Glossary template ==
The glossary entries are now created automatically. Any member of the [[:Category:Glossary|Glossary]] category now automatically get a link here in the appropriate alphabetical section. The short description must be entered into a template call on the respective description page. This template call has two forms: In this one the Short descriptive text is not displayed on the respective page.

<nowiki>{{Glossary|Short descriptive text}}</nowiki>

'Short descriptive text' must be replaced by a short (one sentence) definition of the respective word. If you want the short descriptive text displayed on the page as well, you can use:

<nowiki>{{Glossary|Short descriptive text|1}}</nowiki>

Both are calls to [[Template:Glossary]] and both add
<nowiki>[[Category:Glossary]]</nowiki>
automatically, there is no need to specify it on the page explicitly.
