Template Usage Guide

This page includes all templates, and information on their purpose, how to use them, and when to use them.

## Article Spoiler

The **article spoiler template** is used when an article contains **information that may be a spoiler to entirely new readers**, readers that have **not caught up to a certain book in the series**, or even **information given as a backstory that may be referenced later on in the canon series**.

This template is shown as below (without any inputted information).

**This template is to be used at the very top of the page, before the infobox**. The {{{1}}} is a marker for where the spoiler originates from, matching to what information has been put into the article. For example, if a page has a spoiler for "*Éternel: The Fire Within*", you would input as such into the {{{1}}} slot, which would show as this:

**If an article is extremely detailed and contains many spoilers from many different books**, simply put "*the entire Éternel series*" as a warning to new and current readers. This saves space in the template box. The template will be shown as below.

### **NOTICES**

* ALL **EVENT PAGES** ARE TO BE MARKED WITH THIS SPOILER TAG.
* ALL ARTICLES OF **DECEASED CHARACTERS** ARE TO BE MARKED WITH THIS SPOILER TAG WITH THE BOOK THEY DIE IN (unless there are other spoilers of similar importance that are shown throughout multiple books, ex. Kim Minjun, Maya Prasanna, Daenerys Targaryen)
* IF YOU ARE UNSURE HOW TO TAG THE PAGE PROPERLY, **PLEASE REACH OUT TO MINX** OR PUT "*the entire Éternel series"* AS A PLACEHOLDER.

## Category Header

The **category header template** is used on **category pages to define exactly what the category contains.** This template is *only* to be used on category pages, nowhere else.

The template is shown as below (without any inputted information).

**This template is to be used at the very top of the category page**. No other text is to be included on category pages unless specified by Minx. The **{{{1}}}** is a marker for the topic of articles that the category holds, such as objects, deceased characters, or servants to Maya Prasanna.

There is a small error within the code, where **{{{2}}}** actually comes *first*, defining the type of items that are within the category. If nothing is typed in **{{{2}}}**, **the default word will be articles.** However, words such as "*pages*," "*links*," and "*photos*" may be used.

If the category is for all deceased characters, the header would look like this:

## Incomplete Article

The **incomplete article** is used on **articles that are incomplete, missing information, or not yet started.** This template is to be added to new pages added without body text/only an infobox, and to be removed when the article is complete.

This template **does not have any editable information**, so simply add the template to the top, **preferably underneath the *Article Spoiler*.**

## Disambiguation

The **disambiguation link** is used on **articles that may be related or have a similar name to another article.** This template is to be used on article pairs that have similar names. For example, **The Decimation of Two Tree Island** has a disambiguation link to **Two Tree Island**.

The template is shown as below (without any inputted information).

**This template is to be used at the very top of the page, before the infobox and *Article Spoiler*** if applicable. The **{{{1}}}** is where the current article is named, and the **{{{2}}}** is where the linked article with. Make sure to actually link the other article, and not just name it, whereas the current article will *not* have a link.

For example, if there was a disambiguation on the Rockbreaker page to the Rocksplitter page due to their similar names, it would be shown as below:

## Navboxes

The **navbox** is used on **articles to display all other articles of the respective category.** This template is to be used on articles with large categories, such as "*dragon species*," "*characters*," or "*locations*." The navbox must be at the very bottom of the page, below "*Trivia* " and "*Image Sources*." All navboxes are *expandable* - **do not remove this code**.

**Navbox types must be added according to the type of article its being placed on.** For example, the "Dragon Species" navbox is shown below:

The navbox templates are **not to be edited by anyone other than Minx.**
