Template:Hebrew name/doc

This template, along with {{langx|he}} and {{Hebrew Name 2}}, exists to make it easy to provide a Hebrew name, transliteration, and translation in a streamlined fashion (such that it will not take up attention from the rest of the article).

Usage

{{Hebrew Name|Name|Modern transliteration|Tiberian transliteration|"Meaning"}}
{{Hebrew Name|Name|Modern transliteration|Tiberian transliteration}}

Examples

This wiki markup:

{{Hebrew name|hebrew=לדוגמה|stan=B|tiber=C|means="D"}}

produces: Hebrew: לדוגמה, Modern: B, Tiberian: C, "D"

The template may also be used with unnamed parameters. For example:

{{Hebrew name|לדוגמה|B|C|"D"}}

produces: Hebrew: לדוגמה, Modern: B, Tiberian: C, "D"

Notes

• The hebrew, stan and tiber parameters are mandatory.
• The means parameter is optional.
• The order of parameters doesn't matter when they are entered by name (as in the first example above).

Comparison with {{langx|he}} and {{Hebrew Name 2}}

{{langx|he}} is a simpler template, which only provides a single transliteration, sidestepping the Tiberian/Modern issue. This template can also be used within the text of an article, if so desired, with the |nobold= switch.

{{langx|he|Name|Transliteration|"Meaning"}}

produces: [Name] Error: {{Langx}}: transliteration of latn script (help)

{{Hebrew Name 2}} is for use when two close variants of a name exist (e.g. Yefet/Yafet). Some possible usages are shown below.

{{Hebrew Name 2|1st Name|2nd Name|1st Modern translit.|2nd Modern translit.|1st Tiberian translit.|2nd Tiberian translit|"Meaning"}}

produces: Hebrew: 1st Name / 2nd Name, Modern 1st Modern translit. / 2nd Modern translit. Tiberian 1st Tiberian translit. / 2nd Tiberian translit, "Meaning"

{{Hebrew Name 2|1st Name|2nd Name|Modern translit.||1st Tiberian translit.|2nd Tiberian translit}}

produces: Hebrew: 1st Name / 2nd Name, Modern Modern translit. Tiberian 1st Tiberian translit. / 2nd Tiberian translit

{{Hebrew Name 2|1st Name|2nd Name|1st translit.|2nd translit.|||"Meaning"}}

produces: Hebrew: 1st Name / 2nd Name, 1st translit. / 2nd translit. , "Meaning"
