The '''ParseHiscoreData''' template can be used to extract chosen skill levels, rank or experience from raw highscore data in the same format as returned from '''<nowiki>http://hiscore.runescape.com/index_lite.ws?player=<playername></nowiki>'''.

==Usage==
{{t|ParseHiscoreData|hiscore data|skill name|value type}}

The ''hiscore data'' should be a string of number separated with commas and spaces in the format returned by the '''index_lite.ws'''. For example, for Zezima, this can be seen [http://hiscore.runescape.com/index_lite.ws?player=Zezima here].

{| class="wikitable"
| [[File:Information_icon.svg|left|40px]] Rather than copying the data into each use of ParseHiscoreData, this returned text from the '''index_lite.ws''' can be saved in a user's subpage that then can be included. See examples below.
|}

The ''skill name'' is the name of the skill to extract the information for. The skill name can be one of the following:
* A standard skill name, such as '''attack''', '''ranged''', etc.
* '''overall''' - for overall skill rank, level and xp.
* '''duel''' - for [[Duel|Duel Tournament]] rank and score.
* '''bh''' - for [[Bounty Hunter]] rank and score.
* '''bhr''' - for [[Bounty Hunter|Bounty Hunter Rogue]] rank and score.
* '''fog''' - for [[Fist of Guthix]] rank and score.
* '''ma''' - for [[Mobilising Armies]] rank and score.
* '''baa''' - for [[Barbarian Assault|B.A. Attacker]] rank and score.
* '''bad''' - for [[Barbarian Assault|B.A. Defender]] rank and score.
* '''bac''' - for [[Barbarian Assault|B.A. Collector]] rank and score.
* '''bah''' - for [[Barbarian Assault|B.A. Healer]] rank and score.
* '''cw''' - for [[Castle Wars]] rank and score.
* '''conq''' - for [[Conquest]] rank and score.
* '''dom''' - for [[Dominion Tower]] rank and score.
* '''cru''' - for [[Crucible]] rank and score.

The ''value type'' is the type of value to extract.
* '''0''' - for the skill or minigame rank.
* '''1''' - for the skill level or minigame score (this is the default).
* '''2''' - for the skill experience (does not apply to minigames).

==Examples==
The following template call returns the '''overall level''' of a user called Example, using the user's hiscore data saved in the page <nowiki>[[User:Example/Hiscore Data]]</nowiki>:
<pre><nowiki>
{{ParseHiscoreData| {{User:Example/Hiscore Data}} | overall}}
</nowiki></pre>

The following example shows the '''number of experience points''' for the user Example for the '''Fletching''' skill:
<pre><nowiki>
{{ParseHiscoreData| {{User:Example/Hiscore Data}} | fletching | 2}}
</nowiki></pre>

The following example shows the '''Duel Tournament score''' for the user Example:
<pre><nowiki>
{{ParseHiscoreData| {{User:Example/Hiscore Data}} | duel | 1}}
</nowiki></pre>

The following example shows the '''Fist of Guthix rank''' for the user Example:
<pre><nowiki>
{{ParseHiscoreData| {{User:Example/Hiscore Data}} | fog | 0}}
</nowiki></pre>

==Updating a user's Hiscore Data pages==
Users can periodically update their Hiscore Data pages by doing the following:
# Go to the web page '''<nowiki>http://services.runescape.com/m=hiscore/index_lite.ws?player=<playername></nowiki>''' (where the '''<nowiki><playername></nowiki>''' is replaced with the player's RuneScape username).
# Copy the contents of the page (e.g. using Ctrl-C).
# Go to user's own [[Special:Mypage/Hiscore Data‎|Hiscore Data sub-page]].
# Edit the Hiscore Data page.
# Select any existing text in the edit box.
# Paste in the new data.
# Save the changes.

All pages making use of the user's hiscore data should then be automatically updated.
