Template:Departments of the United Kingdom Government

Initial visibility: currently defaults to autocollapse

To set this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:

• |state=collapsed: {{Departments of the United Kingdom Government|state=collapsed}} to show the template collapsed, i.e., hidden apart from its title bar
• |state=expanded: {{Departments of the United Kingdom Government|state=expanded}} to show the template expanded, i.e., fully visible
• |state=autocollapse: {{Departments of the United Kingdom Government|state=autocollapse}}
  • shows the template collapsed to the title bar if there is a {{navbox}}, a {{sidebar}}, or some other table on the page with the collapsible attribute
  • shows the template in its expanded state if there are no other collapsible items on the page

If the |state= parameter in the template on this page is not set, the template's initial visibility is taken from the |default= parameter in the Collapsible option template. For the template on this page, that currently evaluates to autocollapse.

Usage

There are two parameters:

• type
• title

Type is either Ministerial or Non-ministerial and categorises the article automatically. Title is used to sort the article if necessary, as with those articles that begin with "Department of" or "Ministry of".
