{{#widget: ArticleSpawner}}

An ArticleSpawner widget with no parameters displays an Article Title field and Submit button; filling the field and clicking submit is equivalent to clicking a link for an article with the same title.

=== Basic parameters ===
<pre>
{{#widget: ArticleSpawner
| title     = Squealy Nord
| submit    = Create an article
}}
</pre>

{{#widget: ArticleSpawner
| title     = Squealy Nord
| submit    = Create an article
}}

You can fill the Article Title field and Submit button with custom text. Note that the user can still edit the title.

=== Button with no fields ===
<pre>
{{#widget: ArticleSpawner
| title     = Squealy Nord
| showtitle = no
| submit    = Create the "Squealy Nord" article now!
| summary   = Finally created the Squealy Nord article
}}
</pre>

{{#widget: ArticleSpawner
| title     = Squealy Nord
| showtitle = no
| submit    = Create the "Squealy Nord" article now!
| summary   = Finally created the Squealy Nord article
}}

This button creates an article using [[Squealy Nord]] as the tile, and fills in the edit summary.

=== Preload template ===
<pre>
{{#widget: ArticleSpawner
| type    = Biography
| summary = New real-world person article
| submit  = New biography
}}
</pre>

{{#widget: ArticleSpawner
| type    = Biography
| summary = New real-world person article
| submit  = New biography
}}

When the user fills in a title and clicks the "New biography" button, it takes them to the article page, applies the {{tl|ArticleSpawner/Biography}} preload template to the edit box, and displays the {{tl|ArticleSpawner/Biography/doc}} content above the edit box.

=== Parameterized preload template ===
<pre>
{{#widget: ArticleSpawner
| type        = Biography
| summary     = New real-world freelancer article

| param.Name          = 
| param.Navbox target = freelance
| param.Role category = [[Category:Authors]]

| hiddenparam = [[Category:Freelance contributors]]
| hiddenparam = Freelancer

| submit = New biography
}}
</pre>

{{#widget: ArticleSpawner
| type        = Biography
| summary     = New real-world freelancer article

| param.Name          = 
| param.Navbox target = freelance
| param.Role category = [[Category:Authors]]

| hiddenparam = [[Category:Freelance contributors]]
| hiddenparam = Freelancer

| submit = Freelancer biography
}}

For preload templates with preload parameters ({{xt|$1}}, {{xt|$2}}, {{xt|$3}}, etc.), clicking the "Freelancer biography" button opens the article page, preloads the {{tl|ArticleSpawner/Biography}} template and fills the preload parameters with the '''param''' and '''hiddenparam''' values in order ('''param.Name''' replaces {{xt|$1}}, '''param.Navbox target''' replaces {{xt|$2}}, '''param.Role category''' replaces {{xt|$3}}, the first '''hiddenparam''' replaces {{xt|$4}}, etc.), and displays the {{tl|ArticleSpawner/Biography/doc}} content above the edit box.

Note that if the '''hiddenparam'''s were placed before the '''param'''s, they would '''''not''''' be applied before the '''param'''s. The widget processes all '''param'''s in order first, ''then'' all '''hiddenparam'''s in order.
