Template:S-ttl/doc

This template creates a single succession box center column to be used with succession boxes for the function of listing titles.

Usage

The format is {{s-ttl|title=enter title here|years=enter years title was held here|parameter=}}, where parameter= can be any of the optional parameters listed below.

Parameter names

• title (required) — Text to be displayed for title.
• order (optional) — Indicates the nth person to hold a given office. For use with offices that have a recognized sequence. E.g. 28th
• district (optional) — For use with parliamentary offices. Insert as a wikilink the district represented during the tenure in office.
• dynasty (optional) — Adds a sub-line beneath the title that allows for a "dynasty" number for certain royal dynastic lines (such as the Pharaohs of Egypt).
• creation (optional) — Adds a sub-line beneath the title that allows for a "creation" number for certain noble titles (such as the Dukes of Cornwall).
• years (optional) — Years served in office, typically a range of dates.
• regent1–regent8 AND years1–years8 (optional) — These parameters can be used when an office is held in tandem with another person. Examples of this include co-rulers of a country or region and regencies. It does not include consorts or sub-positions such as vice presidencies. The "years" parameter should only contain years, not days or months, but all other guidelines rules apply.
• alongside (optional) — This parameter is reserved for political positions where two people share power, such as US senators.
• with–with25 (optional) — Alternative parameter for use when an office is shared with one or more others
• lords (optional) — Designates that the person was a member of the House of Lords. The parameter is asking for the dates they served in the house.
• rows (optional) — Number of table rows this entry should span.
