It's possible to display the 'default' value only on page that would otherwise show all values:

I.e. the "defaultonly" attribute shows the default text only, which can be useful for images, as you would otherwise see a stack of images.

= No default =
 
If no default is given, only certain countries are displayed
= Setting a default =
== With default ==
With a default setting, the default text is displayed for all countries, except where specific values are given:
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>Local
|default=default value
|Rwanda=Rwandan version
}}
gives
"{{Local
|default=default value
|Rwanda=Rwandan version
}}", see [[Template:Local/help/rw]] (which displays "Rwandan version") and  [[Template:Local/help/zm]] (which displays "default value").
 
== Without default ==
If no default is given, only the present values countries are displayed on localised pages:
  <nowiki>{{</nowiki>Local

== With default, blanking one value ==
With a default setting, the default text is displayed for all countries, except where specific values are given, including a blank value:
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>Local
|default=default value
|Rwanda=
}}
gives
"{{Local
|default=default value

}}", see [[Template:Local/help/rw]] (which displays "" in the Rwandan version) and  [[Template:Local/help/zm]] (which displays "default value").
 
= Formatting =
 
== Small adaptations ==
 
As above, for small adaptations, like single words or a sentence, use this:
<nowiki>{{Local|</nowiki>Kenya<nowiki>=inline text, for smaller adaptations}}</nowiki>
which produces this:
{{Local|Kenya=inline text, for smaller adaptations}}
 
== Larger adaptations ==
 
Where you want to add a specific longer note that is only relevant to {{{country|Kenya}}}, use this:
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>Kenya|text=
text placed in a box, for larger adaptations.
}}
which produces:
{{Kenya|text=
 
text placed in a box, for larger adaptations.
 
}}
}}
This could also be used for comments, where something will need adapting in the long run.
== Important ==
Please consider whether your note is relevant only to {{{country|Kenya}}}, or it's generally relevant to all users! If it's relevant to all users, then do add it to the resource as a whole!
