I think it's best to get rid of the book part almost entirely

New page

{{Documentation subpage}}
{{High-use|11679}}

This navigational template offers a variant to several floating box templates that link to [[Portal:Contents/Portals|portals]], and [[Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects|Wikipedia's sister projects]] but also typically cause formatting issues because of their size and alignment.

It is intended to be placed at the end of an article, '''after''' the references, external links, navboxes, authority control template, and '''before''' any [[WP:Category|categories]].

{{Lua|Module:Subject bar}}
{{Uses TemplateStyles|Template:Subject bar/styles.css}}

== Usage ==
No single parameter is required, however, at least one portal or sister project should be utilized with the use of this template. Since Wikipedia articles typically are in the domain of one or more [[Wikipedia:WikiProject|WikiProjects]], and since WikiProjects often have a [[Wikipedia:Portal|portal]], almost every article should list at least one portal. None of the parameters should be capitalized.

== Parameters ==
When copying all parameters in either the vertical or horizontal layouts, delete those which are not needed. If no links are needed for a particular type, such as the historical "[[WP:BOOKS|books]]", that part of the template will not appear on the page.

'''Parameter meanings (quick list).''' Alphabetical order:
'''b:''' [[wikibooks:|Wikibooks]].
'''commons:''' [[commons:|WikiMedia Commons]].
'''d:''' [[d:|Wikidata]].
'''n:''' [[wikinews:|Wikinews]].
'''q:''' [[wikiquote:|Wikiquote]].
'''s:''' [[wikisource:|Wikisource]].
'''species:''' [[species:|Wikispecies]].
'''v:''' [[wikiversity:|Wikiversity]].
'''voy:''' [[voy:|Wikivoyage]].
'''wikt:''' [[wiktionary:|Wiktionary]].

{{col-end}}

=== Other parameters ===

; <kbd><nowiki>spoken</nowiki></kbd>: To provide a link to the spoken Wikipedia, provide the name of the sound file, omitting the <code><nowiki>File:</nowiki></code> prefix

== Examples ==
Example. Simplest.

All set to "y". In order of use. Portal and spoken removed. Try this first. It will use the article name for all the sister links. Test them all, and adjust as necessary by adding other search terms. Quotes can be placed around search terms to require search results to include the complete phrase.

== Portal bar. Separate bar for "See also" sections ==

'''{{tl|Portal bar}}''' may be better since portals are internal links, and can go in the "See also" section if there is one. Portal bars are narrower too, and so they use less space. An example:
{{Portalbar|border=n|COVID-19|Medicine|Viruses}}

== See also ==
{{div col|colwidth=20em}}
* [[Wikipedia:Template messages/Sister projects]]
* {{tl|Commons}}
* {{tl|Commons category}}
* {{tl|Commons category multi}}
* {{tl|Commons and category}}
* {{tl|Commons-inline}}
* {{tl|Commons category-inline}}
* {{tl|Portal}}
* {{tl|Portal bar}}
* {{tl|Sister project links}}
{{div col end}}
