Template:Pong/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

< Template:Pong

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Pong.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Purpose

{{ping}} is very close to {{pong}}—since I and O are very close on the QWERTY keyboard it's a common and readily made typo. This vanity template takes advantage of this fact in a humorous manner by providing an alternative Echo-enabled way of pinging other users. It can be used either in place of {{ping}} or as a reply-to template when responding ("ponging") to other user's pings.

Parameters

Requires at least 1 unnamed parameter: the user name being notified. Takes up to 10 user names

{{Pong|User name 1|User name 2|...|User name 10}}

Usage
