Statements about statements[edit | ]

To make nice forms see the following steps. See a similar implementation for the Has events property on Deployments.

|-
! Potentially used by
| {{{Potentially used by|}}}
|-

In the Deployments form:

|-
! Used by (new format)
| {{{field|Potentially used by|holds template|autocomplete on category=Institution}}} {{Unknown_Entity_redlink|Institution}}
|-

Then, lower in the form (before the </includeonly> tag).

{{{for template|PotentiallyUsedBy|multiple|embed in field=Deployments[Potentially used by]}}}
'''Institution:''' {{{field|1|property=Institution|input type=combobox}}}

'''Certainty:''' {{{field|2|property=Certainty|input type=tokens}}}

'''Citekey of source:''' {{{field|3|property=Source}}}
'''Description:''' {{{field|4|property=Description}}}
{{{end template}}}

This section references the PotentiallyUsedBy Template, which is used to populate the property. Note how the variables 1-4 match the fields of the section above.

[[Potentially used by::{{{1|}}};{{{2|}}};{{{3|}}};{{{4|}}}]]
<includeonly>
<!--[[{{{1|}}}]] ({{{2|}}}, {{{3|}}}-{{{4|}}})-->
<includeonly>

Which in turn references the Potentially used by Property.

It is a property of type [[Has type::Record]].
[[Has fields::Institution;Information Certainty;CiteRef;Description]]

Currently there is no way to do the following: when adding another record (using the *Add another* button) to pre-populate the data as it was filled in the main template. For now I see the following workarounds:

Set Certainty by default to Documented, and leave the Citekey to fill in manually (copy-paste)
There might be a way to auto-fill blank values with the value from the form on submit (or actually, on rendering the page). This would have to be tried. Adding things to eg. Template:HasEvent doesn't seem to work, but I might be doing this the wrong way
