Template:Appearances list/doc
{{Appearances list}} provides the standardized formatting for horizontal keyword listings on real-world books.
Template
{{Appearances list | characters = | locations = | creatures = | items = | other =
If you're just looking to stub it out with {{sectstub}}, use:
{{Appearances list | stub = 1 | characters = | locations = | creatures = | items = | other = }}
Usage
- characters (optional)
- An alphabetical list of characters (main, secondary or support, and mentions).
- locations (optional)
- An alphabetical list of locations. If you can infer regions, do so (ex. Magnimar infers Varisia).
- creatures (optional)
- An alphabetical list of creatures, monsters, animals, "mobs", etc., bestiary or otherwise.
- items (optional)
- An alphabetical list of items. "Cup" or "sword" are bad. "Aldori dueling sword" or "wayfinder" are OK.
- other (optional)
- An alphabetical list of other keywords. See Category:Categories for examples.
Tips
- If the topic has only been mentioned, but does not make an actual appearance, add {{mentioned}}.
- If the topic is not directly named, but can be inferred or is implied (such as a spell), add {{unnamed}}.
- If a named character or notable creature dies and doesn't come back to life in this work, add {{death}}.
