Template:Drop/doc

This is a documentation subpage for the Template:Drop page.

Notes

• Calls Template:Drop/Article.
• If used in a namespace, the store will fail with notice, superseding all other functionality.
• If any arguments that would be passed to Cargo are invalid, the store will silently fail.
  • It is not known to me, at this time, if it is possible to make Cargo return an error if validation fails without duplicating the logic into the Drop template itself. As a stopgap, viewing page values will detail what fields are being sent to Cargo.
• Additionally, if any stores are rejected on a page using this template, all subsequent stores (using this template?) on said page will automatically fail.
