| parse.profession_a_smw, parse.profession_a_level_smw, parse.profession_b_smw, parse.profession_b_level_smw | Exports the data from profession_bubble_a and profession_bubble_b to smw |

| yes_no(text) | Only accepts "Yes", "No" and "N/A" |
| yes_no_smw(text) | Maps "Yes", "No" to true and false respectively |
Creating New Params
Ideally, params should be defined here so that they can be reused between different Infoboxes. Here is how to create a new param:
parse.paramname = {
name = <param>,
func = <func>,
empty = 'empty', -- optional
category_never = 'category', -- optional
category_partial = 'category', -- optional
category_incomplete = 'category', -- optional
category_complete = 'category', -- optional
smw_property = 'Property', -- optional
smw_func = <func>, -- optional
}
| key | value | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| name | parameter name as used in the Template | ||||
| func | A function in Module:Param Parse to validate and process the Template argument. You can also use a local function, but this is not recommended.
If func is a function, will call func(Infobox.raw_param(name)): {name = <param>, func = <func>, ... },
If func is a table, it takes the following parameters: {name = <param>, func = { name = <func>, params = <func_params>}, ... },
| ||||
| empty (optional) | text to display in the infobox if func returns nil; defaults to "? (edit)" | ||||
| category_never (optional) | category to add if func returns nil for all versions | ||||
| category_partial (optional) | category to add if func returns nil for some versions, but a value for other versions | ||||
| category_incomplete (optional) | category to add if func returns nil for at least 1 version (i.e. category_never and category_partial combined) | ||||
| category_complete (optional) | category to add if func returns a value for all versions | ||||
| smw_property (optional) | if this string is defined, the parameter will be saved into SMW | ||||
| smw_func (optional) | function to validate and process the Template argument to save into SMW. func is used by default if smw_func is not defined |
