Template:Diagram
Embeds a diagram that lives on its own page in one of the five diagram namespaces, so it can be inserted and repointed from the visual editor.
Usage: {{Diagram|page=Mermaid:RE FlowChart Overview}}
The page parameter is the full page name of the diagram, including its namespace prefix — Mermaid:, DOT:, Drawio:, BPMN: or Gantt:. See Help:Diagrams.
This template wraps the {{#display_diagram:}} parser function. The wrapper exists so the diagram name is a parameter: the visual editor can insert and change parameters, but has no way to edit a parser function's target, so a bare {{#display_diagram:}} call can only be changed by editing the page source. Bare calls still work and still render — prefer this template for anything new.
The {{#if:}} guard below is load-bearing: FDDisplayDiagram::run() passes its argument to Title::newFromText() and calls ->exists() on the result without a null check, so an empty page would throw a fatal error rather than render nothing.
Embed a diagram from the Mermaid, DOT, Drawio, BPMN or Gantt namespace.
