! Parameter
! Description
! Notes
|-
| <code>1</code>
| Legend type
| Either of the following generates a legend box. Acceptable values include:
:'''l''': Horizontal legend
:'''lv''': Vertical legend
:'''t''': Horizontal legend, as a table
:'''tv''': Vertical legend, as a table
|-
| <code>show</code>
| Legend contents
| This parameter is optional. By default the legend box contains the following six items:
# '''Legend:''' (appears bold when the legend type is either "l", "lv", or "t")
# Old version, not maintained
# Old version, still maintained
# '''Current version''' (appears bold)
# Latest preview version
# Future version

This parameter allows each item to be displayed or hidden with digits. Each digit controls the state of its associated item in the above list.<br />
Acceptable digits are "1" (displays the associated legend item) and "0" (hides the associated legend item).<br />
The parameter is "show=XXX" where "XXX" is:
* a six-digit number when the legend type is either "l" or "lv"
* a five-digit number when the legend type is either "t" or "tv" because the first item ("Legend:") cannot be hidden.
Additional digits on the '''left''' are ignored.
|-
| <code>style</code>
| [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] styles
| This parameter is optional. Use it to change the template's formatting, style and layout via CSS syntax. In combination with the legend the specified CSS applies to the entire block.

=== Table cells ===
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Parameter
! Description
! Notes
|-
| <code>1</code>
| Data type
| Either of the following change the background color of the cell in which it is inserted:
:'''o''': Denotes old version that is not maintained
:'''co''': Denotes old version that is maintained
:'''c''': Denotes latest stable version
:'''cp''': Denotes latest preview version
:'''p''': Denotes planned future version
|-
| <code>2</code>
| Text
| Specifies the text to display on screen, usually a version number or name of a specific version.
|-
| <code>style</code>
| [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] styles
| This parameter is optional. Use it to change the template's formatting, style and layout via CSS syntax. This parameter can be inserted into a table cell to enforce CSS definitions in that cell.
|-
| <code>sortKey</code>{{anchor|sortKey}}
| Sorting key
| This parameter is optional. A sortkey is an invisible string used to change the way a certain table cell is sorted. For instance, normally, the phrase "ACME's Bow" is sorted with phrases that start with A. Affixing a sortkey of "Bow" to the phrase causes the phrase to be sorted with other phrases that start with "B" (or, to be more accurate, with "Bow"). For general information on sorting tables, see [[Help:Tables#Sorting|Help:Tables]].
