(Adding the "small=yes" functionality. Now using {{ombox/core}} with hard-coded small styles due to the CSS caching, but it also has the "ombox-small" class so it can be skinned.) |

Template documentation
![](/images/thumb/4/4c/Template-info.svg/50px-Template-info.svg.png)
It is used to build message box templates for pages. That is, page types not covered by {{ambox}}, {{tmbox}}, {{imbox}} or {{cmbox}}. Thus it should not be used for boxes for articles, talk pages, image pages or category pages.
This template works almost exactly like {{ambox}} and uses the same parameters.
Contents |
Usage
Simple usage example:
{{ombox | text = Some text.}}
![]() |
Some text. |
Complex example:
{{ombox | type = style | image = [[Image:Emblem-question-yellow.svg|40px]] | style = width: 400px; | textstyle = color: red; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; | text = The message body text. }}
![]() |
The message body text. |
Other pages message box types
The following examples use different type parameters but use no image parameters thus they use the default images for each type.
![]() |
type=speedy – Speedy deletion templates. |
![]() |
type=delete – Deletion templates. |
![]() |
type=content – Major warnings and problems. |
![]() |
type=style – Minor warnings and problems. |
![]() |
type=notice – Notices and messages of any kind, both permanent and temporary. |
![]() |
type=move – Merge, split, rename and transwiki messages and proposals. |
![]() |
type=protection – Protection templates when shown on "other pages". |
Examples
Some examples using the "notice" style:
![]() |
No type and no image given (default) |
No type and image=none – No image is used and the text uses the whole message box area. |
![]() |
image = [[Image:Gnome globe current event.svg|42px]] imageright = [[Image:Nuvola apps bookcase.svg|40px]] |
![]() |

This page documents an Foresight Wiki guideline. It is a generally accepted standard that editors should follow, though it should be treated with common sense and the occasional exception. | Guideline |

This page in a nutshell: This template is used to build message boxes for all pages that are not articles, talk pages, image pages or category pages. |
Parameters
List of all parameters:
{{ombox | type = speedy / delete / content / style / notice / move / protection | image = none / [[Image:Some image.svg|40px]] | imageright = [[Image:Some image.svg|40px]] | style = CSS values | textstyle = CSS values | text = The message body text. | small = {{{small|}}} / yes | smallimage = none / [[Image:Some image.svg|30px]] | smallimageright = none / [[Image:Some image.svg|30px]] | smalltext = A shorter message body text. }}
type
- If no type parameter is given the template defaults to type notice. That means it gets a gray border.
image
- No parameter = If no image parameter is given the template uses a default image. Which default image it uses depends on the type parameter.
- An image = Should be an image with usual wiki notation. 40px - 50px width are usually about right depending on the image height to width ratio. (But the message box can handle images of any size.) For example:
image = [[Image:Crystal package settings.png|40px]]
- none = Means that no image is used.
imageright
- No parameter = If no imageright parameter is given then no image is shown on the right side.
- An image = Should be an image with usual wiki notation. 40px - 50px width are usually about right depending on the image height to width ratio. (But the message box can handle images of any size.) For example:
imageright = [[Image:Nuvola apps bookcase.png|40px]]
- Anything = Any other object that you want to show on the right side.
style
- Optional CSS values used by the entire message box table. Without quotation marks
" "
but with the ending semicolons;
. For example:style = margin-bottom: 0.5em;
textstyle
- Optional CSS values used by the text cell. For example:
textstyle = text-align: center;
text
- The message body text.
The small parameters
![]() |
small = yes |
![]() |
type = style small = yes |
small
- yes = Makes it a smaller right floating message box. This also makes the default images smaller. Note that any data fed to the smallimage, smallimageright and smalltext parameters is only used if "small=yes". To make it so your template also understands the small parameter you can use this code:
small = {{{small|}}}
![]() |
small = yes image = [[Image:Replacement filing cabinet.svg|50px]] smallimage = [[Image:Replacement filing cabinet.svg|32px]] |
smallimage
- No parameter = If no smallimage parameter is given then this template falls back to use the image parameter. If the image parameter also is empty then a small default image is used.
- An image = Should be an image with usual wiki notation. 30px width is usually about right. For example:
smallimage = [[Image:Replacement filing cabinet.svg|30px]]
- none = Means that no image is used. This overrides any image fed to image, when "small=yes".
![]() |
small = yes imageright = [[Image:Nuvola apps bookcase.png|50px]] smallimageright = none |
smallimageright
- No parameter = If no smallimageright parameter is given then this template falls back to use the imageright parameter. If the imageright parameter also is empty then no image is shown on the right side.
- An image = Should be an image with usual wiki notation. 30px width is usually about right. For example:
smallimageright = [[Image:Nuvola apps bookcase.png|30px]]
- Anything = Any other object that you want to show on the right side.
- none = Means that no right side image is used. This overrides any image fed to imageright, when "small=yes".
smalltext
- A shorter version of the message body text. If no smalltext parameter is given then this template falls back to use the text parameter.
