Well, if you can't get it to work, you've come to the right place. This is the documentation for my inquiry form.

Purpose

edit

The sole purpose of this template is to ask for help on my talk page if you need help. In reality, this template is very simple to use. The trick is in knowing the fields and knowing how to use this template.

Fields

edit

If you didn't know already, every template (well, almost) has fields. This template has two fields: a message field, and a username field. The following demonstrates the fields.

{{User:Cuyler91093/Inquiry form|Subject|Message field|Username field}}

Just substitute "Subject", "Message field", and "Username field" with whatever you want. All fields are mandatory.

Subject

edit

The subject field is for putting a chapter in the table of contents. It usually embodies the message or the question asked.

{{User:Cuyler91093/Inquiry form|Template?|Message field|Username field}}


Message field

edit

You can substitute the message field for whatever your question is that you have for me, as long as it's Wikipedia-related. For example, the following:

{{User:Cuyler91093/Inquiry form|Template?|Please help me with this template!}}

would produce:


But, you can't have your inquiry form having "Sincerely, Username field". That's why I have a username field!

Username field

edit

Just put your own username (without the prefix "User:") in this field, and it will indicate to me who messaged me, and how I can reach your userpage. The following:

{{User:Cuyler91093/Inquiry form|Template?|Please help me with this template!|Cuyler91093}}

would produce:


Get it? Try and test it out at the Sandbox for experimenting purposes. Enjoy the inquiry form!

Miscellaneous notes

edit

This template was based off of Template:Helpme. I modified it for my special purposes.
