Syntax

{{NPC infobox
|name            =
|image           =
|caption         =
|title           =
|location        =
|classification  = 
|dead            =
}}

Parameters

Long parameters will extend the width of the infobox. To keep it the correct size keep text short or use the "< br>" function.

name

Not Optional. Name of the deity.

image

Defaults to a .png image based on the article's name. Once the page is first created or previewed, a link will be generated for file uploading.

caption

Optional. Provides a description of the image.

title

Required. What the deity is often refereed to as (Norala=Goddess of Hunts,Vol=God of Death).

location

Required. What realm or continent does the Desity reside on? Alharth? Verta? A Fae Realm?

classification

Optional. Which Council Classification is the deity. See Guide To Nature Spirit Classification for details.

dead

Optional. Enter "yes" to show that a Deity is Deceased.

Description

Create an attractive "info card" for Deities. This is another way to liven up the pages. It also provides a consistent "at a glance" information box with vital information that is consistent across all deities. Note that the goal is not to cover everything that can fit into the card, as that is in the body of the article. If you have any suggestions for what should/could go in the infobox, please comment on the Talk page or the author's talk page.

Images

The typical usage is to use this in a new article, save, and THEN upload the image by clicking the image link (which then is pre-set with the article name) If an image already exists which name does not match the article name, or in a different format, specify it. If the image is larger/smaller the box will expand/shrink to fit it, have to specify what size you want it to appear(see below) keep in mind that the text will only be 300px in length.

Examples

{{Deity infobox
|name            = Norala
|image            = [[File:Norala.png]]
|caption          = She is strong and proud.
|title            = Goddess of Hunts
|location         = Alharth
|classification   = Class 3
|dead = yes
}}
