To display weapon demonstration videos on pages. See Weapon Demonstration Project Video for more info on specific videos.

Usage

Simply place the template on the weapon article.

If a link to a patch which outdates the demonstration is found in {{Dictionary/demonstrations}}, it will display a notice that the demonstration is outdated.

• {{Weapon Demonstration}} on the Scattergun article generates:

Demonstration

To manually choose a weapon video, insert the YouTube video ID as an unnamed parameter:

To manually choose a weapon video by weapon name, insert the name of the weapon as weapon parameter:

• {{Weapon Demonstration|weapon=Bat}}

To customize the level of the header, add the headerlevel parameter:

• {{Weapon Demonstration|headerlevel=h3}}

To remove the header, add the noheader parameter:

• {{Weapon Demonstration|noheader=true}}

• {{Weapon Demonstration|nohatnote=true}}

To make the video show up as a thumbnail, use tn=yes:

Parameters width and ratio work like the {{Youtube}} template.

As weapon demonstrations frequently become outdated with patches, this template can be adapted to flag demonstrations as "outdated". By editing this page, and adding code as such: scattergun-outdate: {{patch name|6|27|2012|date=true}}.
This will appear on the page as: Note: This demonstration has been out of date since June 27, 2012.
