Template:Startup/Funding entry/doc: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 07:24, 3 December 2025

Description

This template defines a single row in the Template:Startup/Funding history table. It is designed to handle Semantic MediaWiki (SMW) subobject creation intelligently, ensuring data is not duplicated when pages are transcluded.

Storage Logic: Subpage Only

This template uses a conditional check to ensure Semantic Data is physically attached to the **Funding History Subpage**, while semantically linking back to the Main Startup Page.

**On Subpage:** When viewing `Startup Name/Funding_history`, the template detects the subpage context (via `{{#titleparts}}`) and **CREATES** the SMW subobjects.
**On Main Page:** When transcluded onto `Startup Name`, the template renders the visual table row but **SUPPRESSES** subobject creation to prevent "double counting" or duplicate database entries.

Usage

This template is usually called automatically by the generic Template:Startup/Funding history table.

{{Startup/Funding entry
| investor = Sequoia Capital
| round = Series A
}}

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Type
investor	The name of the investor (e.g., Sequoia Capital).	Page Link
round	The funding round (e.g., Seed, Series A).	String
