Template:Faction/Doc
From Starfield Wiki
Summary[edit]
This template makes it easier to link NPCs to their faction pages.
The template makes two assumptions:
- There exists a "faction" page in the specified namespace (the current one if none is specified).
- The faction you specify is present on the relevant page exactly as specified (e.g., if the faction is called "Joe's Faction", you must specify "Joe's Faction" as the name).
Parameters[edit]
Parameter | Scope | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | required | Faction to which to link. |
2 | optional | Rank of NPC within the faction. |
altname | optional | Value to display in the link to the faction. (This should only be used in User space; in gamespaces, this is normally loaded from the faction page.) |
ns_base | optional | Alternate namespace for the faction pages if the default is not to be used. |
nocat | optional | Set to yes to not add category (for example, within tables of NPCs). |
Examples[edit]
{{Faction|Mages Guild|Evoker}}
Mages Guild (Evoker)
{{Faction|Fighters Guild|0|ns_base=Oblivion}}
Loaded Values[edit]
The following values are loaded internally by the template from faction pages. They should normally be saved by using {{Save Named Values}} on the page.
Parameter | Scope | Description |
---|---|---|
Rank_rank | optional | The name of the character's rank in the faction. |
RankIcon_rank | optional | The image to display after the rank. |
altname | optional | The value to display in the link to the faction. If not found, the name of the faction will be used, less any disambiguation text. |
catname | optional | The name to use in the categories used to group the members of the faction. If not found, the name of the faction will be used, less any disambiguation text. |
link | optional | The full faction link for the redirect, including the namespace, but without the [[ ]]. This allows for both page name conflicts as well as cross-namespace linking, when necessary. |
Saved Values[edit]
The following values are saved to pages in Morrowind-related spaces only. This functionality can probably be moved to the NPC Summary and NPC Data templates in the future.
Parameter | Scope | Description |
---|---|---|
faction | required | Same as faction parameter.
|
factionRank | optional | Specified rank parameter or corresponding Rank_rank from faction page, if available.
