This template generates a navigation box between number entries of a particular language. Unlike Wiktionary's approach, this template doesn't rely on any module to function.

Parameters

|1= (you can use 1= or write the argument directly as shown in the example below)

The complete name of your language, used in the table's caption. It is advisable to write the first letter as a capital letter for aesthetic purposes.

|2= (same mechanism)

The number character of the current entry.

|headlink=

Creates a link in the caption. Omit if desired.

|top=

Written form of the direct multiple of ten of the current entry. Only for base-10 languages.

|prev=

Written form of the number immediately preceding.

|next=

Written form of the number immediately after.

|contents=

List of numeral subcategories (i.e. ordinal, cardinal, fractional, etc.). See the example below for a similar formatting to Wiktionary's.

Example

Suppose we want to set up a number box for the number 2 in some language, and we want the caption of the table to redirect to Contionary's main page. The template usage would be the following:

{{number box|Placeholder|2|headlink=Portal:Contionary|top=example-top|prev=example-before|next=example-after|contents=:''[[w:ordinal number|Ordinal]]'': {{term|example-second}}<br>''[[w:cardinal number|Cardinal]]'': {{term|example-two}<br>''[[w:multiplier (linguistics)|Multiplier]]'': {{term|example-double}}}}, etc.

which will render:

Placeholder numbers

	20
← 1	2	3 →
Ordinal: example-second Cardinal: example-two Multiplier: example-double
