This template is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature state, is considered relatively stable and bug-free, and may be used wherever appropriate. It can be mentioned on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users. To minimise server load and avoid disruptive output, improvements should be developed through sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing.

Lua error in Module:TNT at line 159: Missing JsonConfig extension; Cannot load https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data:I18n/Uses TemplateStyles.tab. Places a small, right-floated box indicating the number of Wikipedians in Category:Wikipedians looking for help, and links to the category. Various styling options are available.

Usage

{{Wikipedians looking for help}}
{{Wikipedians looking for help|zero=yes|align=left|norefresh=yes}}

Parameters

There are four named parameters, all optional:

|norefresh= – when set to yes, hides the superscript [refresh] link (default: refresh link is shown)
|zero= – when set to yes, displays the box even when the category is empty (default: hides the box when empty)
|align= – set to left or center (aliases: l and c ) to alter horizontal alignment (default: flush right)
|style= – any CSS style settings may be added here (semicolon-separated; no quotes)

Examples

Examples all contain param |zero=yes so you can see their appearance even when no Wikipedian needs help. Note that the canonical example atop the doc header always says "three Wikipedians"—examples show the live value, which may be cached; update them by clicking 'refresh'.
