Eclipse Wiki

[pat]

Right, so I've made a number of customized infoboxes for the wiki, but very few people have used them. I'm not sure if it's because people haven't noticed, or because they don't want to use them.

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Hero_infobox

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Neutral_infobox

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Villain_infobox

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Company_infobox

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Watchers_infobox

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Sols_infobox
(Since Rogue Society uses exactly the same colour as The Solidus Institute did, this can be used for Rogues.)

In order to add the infobox to your character page, you edit the page, then click the button reading 'Source' in the upper right corner and add the code provided there. When you return to the normal editing page, the infobox will be there.

Here are a few examples of the infoboxes in use:

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Richard_Hutchings

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Ryan_Alcroft

eclipse913.wikia.com/wiki/Joseph_Harper

I think it's more because people simply don't do the wiki. Sure, a nice chunk of us keep our characters and everything updated, but a lot of other people don't. No big deal really, the wiki's not required or anything, but I see that as the main reason why the boxes aren't used.

[a1terego]

Thats one reason, but another is that a lot of us just have no knowledge of this stuff (myself included). But I'll admit I've never seen these templates before whic prompts me to think that I can possibly beginning working on my own now. YAY! ^_^

If anyone needs help with creating their Wiki, just ask for help! Snow is -paying- people do to their wiki, and I have no problem quickly creating an entry for you.

[Jade Alastair]

I know I should do it myself, but could someone help me with Jade's wiki?

[harper]

Sure. I'll throw it up in a few.

edit: Done.

[a1terego]

I don't need so much somebody to make my entire wiki, but somebody to help me set it up. I tried to do it myself and had to resist throwing my laptop across a wall. So if anybody could just set up some templates for Janet, Kiros and Sean...that'd be grand.

or if somebody could give a detailed step by step example on how to make your own wiki page within the already established Eclipse wiki, that'd be cool to. I think I got a wondering Kiros Monroe page somewhere 0__o

I...need help with Sonja's wiki. I tried to do some of it myself, but I am seriously computer illiterate. So, if someone can help me with it at some point, it would be much appreciated.

I'll be making a detailed, step by step guide, mainly because you asked so nicely.

But yeah, hopefully that will be up soonish!

I think I'm gonna add the proper infobox code, and how you should fill it.

Red means you need to edit.
All sections can be removed if not needed.
For the faction title at the beginning of the box, put Hero for heroes, Neutral for Neutrals, Watchers for Watchers P.I., Company for company agents and Sols for Rogue Society.

{{Faction_infobox
|name = Character name
|image = Image: Uploaded file
|portrayer = Face claim
|player = [[:User:Username|Username]]
|powers = [[Primary Power]],<br />[[Secondary Power]]
|alignment = [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alignment_(Dungeons_%26_Dragons)#Alignment Alignment]
|affiliation = [[Faction name]] (if part of an organisation)
|fullname = Full name
|alias = Aliases/Nicknames
|gender = Gender
|age = Age
|born = Date of birth
|pob = Place of birth
|died = Date and place of death
|location = Current location
|occupation = Occupation
|spouse = [[Significant other]]
|parents = [[Father]],<br />[[Mother]]
|siblings = [[Name]] (relation),<br />[[Name]] (relation)
|children = [[Child's name]],<br />[[Child's name]]
|relatives = [[Name]] (relation),<br />[[Name]] (relation)
}}

If you want to link to a certain section of a page, such as the power section of your character page, use this code.

[[Page name#Section heading|Section heading]]

I hope this will help those of you who have trouble with the infoboxes.
