{{Documentation subpage}}

This is a metatemplate used to help build top icons, the little (usually 20x20 pixels) icons in the top-right area of user pages or articles. The template uses the [[mw:Help:Page status indicators|page status indicator]] system.

==Usage==
<pre style="overflow:auto">
{{Top icon
| imagename = Image file to use as icon.
| wikilink = The page to link to. This is where you will be taken when clicking the icon.
| description = The tooltip will display this text when the mouse pointer hovers over the icon.
| id = A unique id is required when using different top icons on the same page.
}}</pre>

Extra options:
<pre style="overflow:auto">
| sortkey = Allows ordering the icons according to the sortkey given.
| width = Uses a different width for the images. Default is 20.
| height = Uses a different height for the images. Default is 20.
| usercat = Adds a category to be added in userspace.
| maincat = Adds a category to be added in article mainspace.
| subpage = For categorization on subpages (default = no).
| nocat = Disables the automatically added category (default = no).
</pre>

Top icons are automatically sorted for consistency in articles. For that reason, {{para|sortkey}} should only be used in user top icons.

{{para|width}} and {{para|height}} are restrictive, meaning when one parameter is not set explicitly, the default acts as a maximum, even if the other parameter is set higher. To increase the overall size, both must be specified.

The following parameters are obsolete and no longer functional: {{para|{{red|number}}}}, {{para|{{red|icon_nr}}}}, {{para|{{red|offset}}}}, {{para|{{red|extra-offset}}}}, {{para|{{red|class}}}} and {{para|{{red|style}}}}.
