| <h2>Purpose</h2>
| |
| This template is used to cycle through the [[Lylat Wiki:Featured Article Nomination|Featured Articles]] on the [[Main Page]]. It changes which template it points to every other day.
| |
| | |
| To see a listing of the Featured Articles that this template cycles through, go [[Lylat Wiki:Featured Article schedule|here]]. Every other one is the same because that makes it easier to change them every forty-eight hours. The actual Featured Articles are on the odd-numbered templates. The even-numbered templates are redirects. Once this template reaches the end of this list, it starts back at the beginning.
| |
| | |
| <h2>Usage</h2>
| |
| ''For full process instructions, check [[Help:Changing featured content]].''
| |
| | |
| <h3>Normal Cycle</h3>
| |
| Under this setting, the template will cycle through the Featured Articles as usual. To set this template to cycle normally, type this on the Main Page:
| |
| :::'''<nowiki>{{FA}}</nowiki>'''
| |
| | |
| <h3>Show New Featured Article</h3>
| |
| This setting will force the template to point to a certain Featured Article. This is used to display a newly Featured Article for an extended period. To force this template to point to a certain Featured Article, type this on the Main Page:
| |
| :::'''<nowiki>{{FA|</nowiki> ''Template Number'' <nowiki>}}</nowiki>'''<br>
| |
| Where "''Template Number''" is the number of the template that is the new Featured Article.
