Template:Infobox motion/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Usage

[edit]

The shorthand parameters for "class =" are M, S, P, I, and B which refer to main motion, subsidiary motion, privileged motion, incidental motion, and motion that brings a question again before the assembly respectively. The class name will be wikilinked and the aricle will automatically be placed in the appropriate category: Category:Subsidiary motions, Category:Privileged motions, Category:Incidental motions, etc.

If a value other than M,S,P,I,B is entered for the "class" parameter, that entered value will be displayed. This is useful if a motion has more than one possible class and you want to display more thatn one class.

{{infobox motion
 | name =
 | class =
 | inorder =
 | seconded =
 | debatable =
 | amendable =
 | voterequired =
 | reconsidered =
 }}
