Template:GetHonorMetaData

This template returns the value of a parameter as defined in a template on a given honor landing page. Unless told otherwise, it will localize the parameter value into the language of the invoking page. If no localization for the parameter value exists, it will return the parameter as it exists in the honor's landing page in the source language.

If the template cannot locate the desired data, it will return an empty string. This can happen if the specified page does not use the specified template, or if the page does not specify the parameter requested.

It takes up to four arguments:

page|honor

You can specify either the page or the honor. If you specify both it will use page. If you specify neither, it will assume you are on an honor page or subpage and treat the first two elements of the invoking page's title as the page. The page argument is the page title of an honor or one of its subpages.

template

Specifies which template holds the parameter you want. If omitted, it defaults to HonorLanding, but if you are experimenting and have some other template in place, you can specify it.

parameter

This specifies which parameter of template you want the template to return. If omitted, it will assume you want the category parameter.

language

This takes a language suffix. The available once can be seen at Template:GetLangSuffix. If non is provided, the template will translate the data to the language of the page it has been invoked off. Don't forget the /
