==About==

'''Template:Buddhism''' categorizes major Wikipedia articles on Buddhism in a sidebar.

== Usage ==
This template can be used as follows:

:'''<nowiki>{{Buddhism}}</nowiki>''' — ''transcludes the entire template as shown here.''
:'''<nowiki>{{Buddhism|collapsed=1}}</nowiki>''' — ''transcludes this template so that it is initially collapsed.''

=== Shortcut to terse version ===

Instead of using '''<nowiki>{{Buddhism|terse=1}}</nowiki>''' you can use the shortcut: '''{{tl|Buddhism-simple}}'''. It is recommended for use with stubs and other short articles.

=== Related navbox ===

:'''{{tl|Buddhism topics}}''' — ''a [[Wikipedia:Navboxes|navbox]].''

==Color scheme==
The color scheme of this page was based on the varied colors of monastic robes including:
:*representing [[Vajrayana]]: the '''burgundy''' ('''color: #af4630''') robes with '''yellow''' ('''color: #af4630''') highlights of Tibetan monastics
:*representing [[Mahayana]]: the '''black''' ('''color: #000''') robes of Zen monastics and the '''very soft yellow''' ('''color: #ffffdd''') robes of lay Buddhists.
:*representing [[Theravada]]: the '''saffron or ochre''' ('''color: #ffd068''') robes of Theravada monastics

Note 1: these are the recommended colors to use on the template. If you want to make variations to the color scheme propose them on the talk page.

Note 2: in sidebar as of April 2012 these colors have all been replaced.

== Sources ==
Wikipedia's [[WP:V#Burden of evidence|policy on verifiability]] states:
:"The burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material. Material that is '''challenged or likely to be challenged''' needs a reliable source, which should be cited in the article."
The main article and set of related citations for this template's content is [[Buddhism]]. Questions about the reliability or accuracy of this template's concepts should be addressed on that article's [[Talk:Buddhism|talk page]]. Questions about this template's organization should be first addressed on this template's [[Template talk:Buddhism|talk page]].

Since this template is transcluded by dozens of Wikipedia pages and its content is the result of an ongoing communal effort, the best way to ensure the long-term acceptance of any proposed change is to first gain consensus for the proposed change on the aforementioned talk pages prior to making the actual change here.
