Many times you may want to just 'test' an idea for a template, I haven't found a sensible way of fully testing templates by themselves (as they will not get included in the edited version, but rather the saved version).

The idea of this Template:Sandbox is to have that, a simple testing zone that will not interfere with others and avoid leaving a trail of botched attempts.

Please leave this comment/text for others to read.

Testing: Status box


{{{component}}}
(activity)
Status: {{{status}}}
Version: {{{version}}}
Base: {{{base}}}
Source: {{{source}}}
Language: {{{language}}}
l10n: add it here
Contributors
{{{contributors}}}
Testing parameterized categorizations:
 Category:Unknown Component
 Category:Pending i18n


This template automatically includes the page in the [[:Category:{{{type}}}]].
