Usage

This header template has a user talk page variant formatted in a matching style, available at {{User info talk }}. On a mobile device, the columns are ignored and text is reflowed into sections stacked vertically.

To use this template, copy and paste the text below into your Edit.

{{user info
| nick name     =
| image         =
| image width   =
| hover text    =
| job title     =
| organization  =
| short quote   =
| about me      =
| about my work =

| disclaimer    =
| c1            =
| c2            =
| c3            =
}}

• The "organization" parameter can also be called as "company".
• To include an image, put the name of the file where it says "image=", excluding the word "file" from the front. Example: | image = BobaFett.jpg
• To include no image, use | image = blank
• Add your languages in standard format. Example: {{#babel:la-N|en-3}}.
• The "hover text" parameter is for the little pop-up text that comes up when your mouse hovers over the image.
• Default header bar colours are the Wikimedia Foundation 'Agora' colour palette.
