    <p>So I have a MediaWiki template which I use within a table to represent one column. The code looks like this and works as I want it.</p> <pre>&ltincludeonly&gt{{#if:{{{name|}}}|''{{{name}}}: ''|}}{{#if:{{{food|}}}|+{{Food|{{{food|}}}}}|}} {{#if:{{{condition|}}}|{{{condition|}}}|}}&lt/includeonly&gt</pre> <p>When I use it with the input</p> <pre> {{Symbiosis|name=Groove|food=10|condition=if next to [[Apple Tree]], [[Dandelion]] or [[Straberry]]}} </pre> <p>I get the folling result which is as desired.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/2Gel5.png" alt="correct output"></p> <p>However now I want to extend this template and move the part with the <code>food</code> definition in another template because I need it elsewhere again. So I make a new <code>ResourceList</code> template which basically does the same as before.</p> <pre>&ltincludeonly&gt{{#if:{{{food|}}}|+{{Food|{{{food|}}}}}|}}&ltincludeonly&gt</pre> <p>and include it in my <code>Symbiosis</code> template to look like this.</p> <pre>&ltincludeonly&gt{{#if:{{{name|}}}|''{{{name}}}: ''|}}{{ResourceList|food={{{food}}}}} {{#if:{{{condition|}}}|{{{condition|}}}|}}&lt/includeonly&gt</pre> <p>But when I now use the same input as above I get a line break in my table to look like this. <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/1XtoI.png" alt="wrong output"></p> <p>Why is this? There are no spaces or linkebreaks in the template definitions. I don't really understand how MediaWiki handles all this, it is quite confusing and somewhat unintuitivive. All this whitespace and line break behavious is driving me nuts... Is there a way to tell MediaWiki that it might ignore all whitespaces and linebreaks within my template definition expect the ones I explecitly want to have?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
