Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template creates a single succession box center column to be used with succession boxes for the function of listing titles.

Usage[edit source]

The format is {{s-ttl|title=enter title here|years=enter years title was held here|parameter=}}, where parameter= can be any of the optional parameters listed below.

Parameter names
  • title (required) — Text to be displayed for title.
  • order (optional) — Indicates the nth person to hold a given office. For use with offices that have a recognized sequence. E.g. 28th
  • district (optional) — For use with parliamentary offices. Insert as a wikilink the district represented during the tenure in office.
  • dynasty (optional) — Adds a sub-line beneath the title that allows for a "dynasty" number for certain royal dynastic lines (such as the Pharaohs of Egypt).
  • creation (optional) — Adds a sub-line beneath the title that allows for a "creation" number for certain noble titles (such as the Dukes of Cornwall).
  • years (optional) — Years served in office, typically a range of dates.
  • regent1regent8 AND years1years8 (optional) — These parameters can be used when an office is held in tandem with another person. Examples of this include co-rulers of a country or region and regencies. It does not include consorts or sub-positions such as vice presidencies. The "years" parameter should only contain years, not days or months, but all other guidelines rules apply.
  • alongside (optional) — This parameter is reserved for political positions where two people share power, such as US senators.
  • withwith25 (optional) — Alternative parameter for use when an office is shared with one or more others
  • lords (optional) — Designates that the person was a member of the House of Lords. The parameter is asking for the dates they served in the house.
  • rows (optional) — Number of table rows this entry should span.
