			=== Naming ===
			A jam with no name of its own is titled '''<Weekday> jam at <Venue>''' —
			see [[Template:Recurring event]] for the rule and the reasoning.

	=== Parameters ===		=== Parameters ===

Magent: Create Template:Jam as a named pass-through to Template:Recurring event (via create-page on MediaWiki MCP Server)

Create Template:Jam as a named pass-through to Template:Recurring event (via create-page on MediaWiki MCP Server)

New page

<noinclude>
== Jam ==
[[Template:Recurring event]] with the type filled in. Everything it does, this
does; the only difference is that <code><nowiki>{{Jam}}</nowiki></code> is what
somebody standing in the room would call it.

=== Usage ===
<pre>
{{Jam
|venue=The Gaslight Dining Saloon
|weekday=Thursday
|start=18:30
|end=20:30
|genre=Bluegrass
|admission=Free
}}
</pre>

=== Parameters ===
Identical to [[Template:Recurring event]] — see that page. '''type''' defaults
to Jam and can be overridden, which is how a night that is really a song circle
gets recorded as one without anybody having to remember a second template name.

=== Notes ===
This is a pass-through: every parameter is forwarded by name. '''A parameter
added to [[Template:Recurring event]] has to be added here too''', or it will
silently do nothing for every page that uses this name. That is the price of
the friendlier spelling, and it is worth paying — but only if whoever extends
the schema remembers to pay it.
