Template:Madlibs
Template documentation | This template uses Lua: |
For Mad Libs type content. Spits out a random word.
Because Scribunto runs at parse time and is cached, this template cannot randomize content on every page reload (unlike <choose uncached>). The output only changes when the page is re-parsed (e.g., after a cache purge). There are no plans to rework the current Mad Libs templates to use Module:Madlibs, since (because of the aforementioned inability to randomize when reloading) it would break a lot of expected behavior, although <choose uncached> only ever really randomized content on page reloading for logged-in users. IP's are stuck with cached pages, and that garish notice banner.
Usage
{{Madlibs|pagename|1}}
Parameter {{{1}}}
The {{{1}}} parameter specifies a pagename, which must correspond to a module subpage of "Module:Madlibs/data", as in "Module:Madlibs/data/verb". Accepted shorthands for pagenames are found in Module:Madlibs/config.
Parameter {{{2}}}
The {{{2}}} parameter accepts a number used to reseed each module invocation, so that multiple calls (if using a different number to reseed) will give you a different word.

Example

Jim wanted {{madlibs|inf|1}} an {{madlibs|noun vowel}} with a {{madlibs|demonym}} {{madlibs|noun consonant}}, but the {{madlibs|noun plural}} {{madlibs|verb past|1}} his {{madlibs|noun|1}} and {{madlibs|verb past|2}} with his wife in {{madlibs|country}}.
{{Clickable button|url={{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}|action=purge}}|Randomize}}
The ambiguous air conditioner ablated on Bob's dad, crushing his Achilles' tendon, which made his friends want to absorb with a amazing ant.
Jim wanted to suffocate an able-bodied spiderman gimp train with a Danish band, but the air conditioners suppressed his street sign and deadened with his wife in Algeria.
