 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:BASEPAGENAME. It contains usage information, categories and other content or metadata that is not part of the original template. |
Usage
The builtin template {{BASEPAGENAME}} does not work on this wiki for all namespaces (and notably not in the "Template:" namespace, where it is needed to manage "/doc" and "/sandbox" subpages).
This is a workaround that you can call using {{Template:BASEPAGENAME}} instead.
Also, unlike the builtin template, it will de-HTML-ize its return value (e.g. apostrophes and a few other ASCII punctuations accepted in page titles)
In the main Template:BASEPAGENAME page and in its documentation subpage Template:BASEPAGENAME/doc, it should return the same value without any namespace prefix. On this page it currently returns "BASEPAGENAME".
It works using MediaWiki Extension:StringFunctions which is enabled on this wiki.
