Template:Metadata type definition

Generates an entity metadata type entry—more specifically a row separator and the first two table cells. Takes the name of the type as a parameter, and infers the type ID from the ordering.

Use Template:Metadata type definition/begin to begin the table, e.g.:

{{Metadata type definition/begin}}
 ! Value
 ! Notes
{{Metadata type definition|Byte}}
 | {{Type|Byte}}
 | It's a byte.
{{Metadata type definition|Short}}
 | {{Type|Short}}
 | It's a short.
{{Metadata type definition|Int}}
 | {{Type|Int}}
 | You get the drill.
 |}

If meta_prerelease is set, an additional rel parameter can be used to indicate that the type has been added or removed.

The type's (full release) ID is stored in meta_type_typename. In pre-release mode, meta_pre_type_typename stores the new ID.
