Usage

Parameters

• {{{1}}} – The text to show on the right. The characters = and | can break this template because they are special characters in template calls. Use {{=}} and {{!}} instead; See Category:Templates for within templates.
• {{{tested}}} – Provide what game/software was the bug observed in. If this is a bug known to be present everywhere or it's a bug on a page about single game/software you can use {{{hidetested}}} (shortcut for hidetested param use: {{Bug*}}). The purpose of this being required parameter is to make it easier verifying/replicating noted bugs.

The following parameters are used to categorize the bug by affected Source games. Parameter |only= cannot be used together with |since= and/or |fixed=.

• {{{only}}} - Abbreviation of the game or game series that has this bug. If blank, defaults to 'no game'. Do this to move pages with tool related or non-Source game bugs from Category:Pages with uncategorized bugs to Category:Pages with other bugs.
  • Note:Currently has experimental support for engine branches.
• {{{since}}} - Since which game (abbreviation) does this bug exist? If blank or undefined, defaults to css (Counter-Strike: Source).
  • Note:Currently has experimental support for engine branches.
• {{{fixed}}} - Since which game (abbreviation) is this bug fixed? If blank or undefined, defaults to 'none' which means that the bug was never fixed in Source.
  • Note:Currently has experimental support for engine branches.
