This Interwikitmp-grps_see_also page is normally included by other template-links-tagging templates...

- It contains common 'see also notes' for the Interwiki template linking and management system.

Interwikitmp-grp Page Suffix ##'s Designations versus key associated autocategorizations
|
Template:Lts — Common template that does the display for most of the other templates below, AND the one to use to tag vanilla utilities with when in doubt.
Associated Autocategories: Template:Lcs.
|
Template:Lts — This template is used to tag all the other templates that make up this interconnection system—those used to tag templates with interwiki scope. These are currently also tagged under Category:Interwiki utility templates pipesorted by '!' (exclamation point). [depreciated method]
- note: The various individual template tagging templates Metatmp, commontmp, ..., Wikiversitytmp also autocategorize in this manner.
Associated Autocategory: Category:Interwiki template-links-tagging templates.
|
Template:Lts — Use to tag generic and special purpose templates that link externally as their primary service function. Associated Autocategories: Template:Lcs, Template:Lcs and Category:Interwiki utility templates. (These templates for example.)
|
Template:Lts — Utility templates which create internal links used for analysis, discussion and tracking other system elements (Categories, Templates, User pages, et al.) by service function on the local (some are inter-sister) project site. (Lts, TL, Tlx, Cl, Cc, Lcs, CAT, etc.)
Associated Autocategories: Template:Lcs and Category:Interwiki utility templates.
|
Template:Lts — Utility templates that do other tasks besides linking. Some of these are typing or display aids for use within tables, etc.
Associated Autocategories: Template:Lcs and Category:Interwiki utility templates Template:I2Takes a parameter 'cat=alternate name' to override default 'Miscellaneous' with whatever is passed. (normally a sub-category of Miscellaneous. A blank parameter 'cat=|' inhibits that category altogether.)
|
Template:Lts — Combined '-1' and '-3' tagging of Miscellaneous class utility templates that also link externally. Associated Autocategories: Additive by Interwikitmp-grp## suffixes per above key groups. Category:Interwiki link templates and Category:Miscellaneous templates Takes a parameter 'cat=alternate name' to override default 'Miscellaneous' with whatever is passed. (normally a sub-category of Miscellaneous. A blank parameter 'cat=|' inhibits that category altogether.)
|
Template:Lts — Combined '-2' and '-3' Interwikitmp-grp## suffixes,
for tagging of 'Miscellaneous class' utility templates that also link internally.
Associated Autocategories: Additive by Interwikitmp-grp## suffixes per above key groups. Category:Internal link templates and Category:Miscellaneous templates Takes a parameter 'cat=alternate name' to override default 'Miscellaneous' with whatever is passed. (normally a sub-category of Miscellaneous. A blank parameter 'cat=|' inhibits that category altogether.)Template:I2Note: This does not auto-categorize to 'Interwiki templates on all sisterprojects'.
|
Template:Lts — Combined '-1' + '-2' + '-3' Interwikitmp-grp## suffixes, however rare in that possess linking both locally and interwiki; usually various category tagging templates (a series) with the commons, Wikipedia, or Metawiki back-linked articles fit this group.
Associated Autocategories:
- Additive by Interwikitmp-grp## suffixes per above key groups.
- (Such templates have both 'interwiki' and 'internal' (intra-wiki) links and map to both major link's categories.
Category:Interwiki link templates + Interwiki link templates + Category:Miscellaneous templates
- However, tagging for Category:Miscellaneous templates should be local to enable maximum flexibility of the overall system. Such category tagging templates are NOT Miscellaneous.) Template:I2Note: This does not auto-categorize to 'Interwiki templates on all sisterprojects'.

Exceptions table (Revised concept)
TABLE II - Exceptions handling... When a name is already used differently in a local sister project
|
Tag with {{Interwikitmp-grp exception}}— denotes and tags a This name in use conflict Exception— Thus this name is not available on all sister's for the same function as used for something else on another sister project.
:Autocategory: Category:Interwiki name difference other sister project
Procedure:
- It should not need said, but check to see how widely a 'deviant template' is used. If its use is slight, it may be easiest to 'cure the deviation' by substituting another template name on the given sister project.
- Tag the generic (or 'common template', the one to be the most widespread as a name on most sister projects before porting it) with Template:Lts which compliments the below template and autocategorizes, plus asserts a status message box.
- Consider whether the incompatible template makes a good utility for export to other sister projects
(Some may exist as minor or essentially identical variations of other universal template names. If so, don't alias such. One is enough!)
- Other tagging in the 'common template' must be manual inserting the array in {{Interwikitmp-grp}} and changing the appropriate arguments for the chosen aliased name in the sister(s) linking template with the name collision.
- Tag with the common category/(ies) extant in {{Interwikitmp-grp}}, or other such case as fits best to the groupings delineated in TABLE I above.
- Proceed as below on that sister which has the template deviation, and any others with incompatible templates.
|
On the flip-side:
- In general
- Use Template:Lts to tag the local name exceptions.
Both the above exceptions templates take the 'work around' (Template:WD) name for self documentation of the Template:WD. That name should be provided the master template copy being aliased on the sister(s) with the name conflict in their normal template set.
Associated Autocategory:
- Category:Interwiki templates varying on other sister projects, provided by the correct tagging.
- The replacement template 'alias' (providing name-to-function mapping) must be universally available on all sister's, and tagged normally and copied to same with the appropriate Interwikitmp-grp##. If the Sister(s) with a template name conflict have that name as a useful general purpose utility or tool template, that name should also be aliased and distributed.
- Examples of name remapping':
- e.g Tl-->TL, Cat-->CAT, etc., Using a case-of-name alternative.
- e.g. 'S'/'s' --> '{{SP}}', 'W'/'w' ---> '{{W2}}', etc., all examples of Suffix alternatives
- e.g. '{{C}}'/'c' --> '{{W2c}}', (the commons), a special case to maintain similar syntax with 'W2' for Wikipedia, and 'Wd' for Wiktionary (Wiki-Dictionary) and 'Wb' for Wikibooks, etc., all part of a family of user friendly utility templates that pipetrick and display nicely, yet allow an edit change of a one or two letter(s) to redirect the mnemonic link name to another sister project.
- Any universal name 'alias' should either duplicate the original source template (preferred) or redirect to it on all sister's capable of having both name variations.
