Lowecases the title of a page.

Usage

(Top of page)
{{lowercase|ns=namespace plus colon}}
(text)
(bottom of page)

Simple, right?

Examples

Page Name: IPod
{{lowercase}}

Try: iPod
True Result: iPod

Page Name: Help:Contents
{{lowecase}}

Try: contents
True Result: Help:Contents NOTE: This does not work as DISPLAYTITLE only works with lowercasing the first letter in the title

Page: Help:Contents
{{lowercase|Help:}}

Try Name: Help:contents
True Result: Help:contents

Note

This contains content that n00bs may not understand

This template does not natively work on pages other than the main namespace as Parser Functions are not installed on this wiki. The wikipedia version does it like this: (parser function bolded)

{{DISPLAYTITLE:{{#if:{{NAMESPACE|}}|{{NAMESPACE|}}}}{{lcfirst:{{PAGENAME}}}}}}

That checks if there is a namespace and if yes, display it with a colon, otherwise display nothing.
