Template:Edit top section

[edit]

This template creates an [edit] link in the top right corner of the page (including this one) for the part before the first section, also called section 0. The link activates the page editor, only showing the top section of that page (&section=0). This is useful for long pages, where the only alternatives to edit the top section is to either edit the entire page, which takes a long time to load and save, or to enter the edit URL manually with "&section=0" appended.

The section 0 URL for this page is:

Usage

Place the template on the first line of the page. A floating [edit] link will appear on the far right of the first line. The link will appear in the top right corner of the page, no matter where the template is placed, but for clearyty it's common to place it on the first line.

{{Edit top section}}
{{Edit top section|top}}

An optional parameter (top) can be entered when the default absolute position conflicts with another element (like another template that uses absolute positioning). It accepts CSS compatible values (ie. px or em). The default is 0px, placing the link just above the top line. Use 2.9em to place it below the line. Use higher values to place it even lower.
