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 page status indicator system.
Usage
{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.
}
Extra options:
| width = Uses a different width for the images. Default is 20.
| height = Uses a different height for the images. Default is 20.
| user = Adds a category to be added in userspace.
| main = Adds a category to be added in article mainspace.
| subpage = For categorization on subpages (default = no).
| nocat = Disables the automatically added category (default = no).
|width= and |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: |number=, |icon_nr=, |offset=, |extra-offset=, |class= and |style=.
