Usage
The Help:Notices page has detailed help (including for the {{slim notice}} option). The following is a brief version.
Use this template to create one-off notices, or use to create a notice template for a specific purpose.
E.g. for a box with square corners
{{notice
|width=80%
|background-color=Wheat
|border-color=SaddleBrown
|radius=0
|headline=Blah blah
|content=Yabba dabba doo
}}
creates:
| Blah blah |
|---|
| Yabba dabba doo |
You can also create a box with rounded corners, e.g.:
{{notice
|width=80%
|background-color=#E3E4FA
|border-color=#993399
|radius=10
|headline=Hello!
|content=Join us - why not?
}}
creates:
| Hello! |
|---|
| Join us - why not? |
(If you leave out the "radius" term, it seems to default to a box with square corners, but it seems like good practice to always use the parameters, as in other cases it breaks the template.)
Choosing colors
Choose your colors from a "palette" such as the table at Wikipedia:Web colors#X11 color names.
Note that you can use hex codes for colors such as #F3F2E0, as in this example:
{{notice
|width=80%
|background-color=#F3F2E0
|border-color=#B5B380
|headline=Blah blah
|content=Yabba dabba doo}}
See Help:Notices for more examples of colors.
