Template:Mission Header

Due to the sensitive nature of this template and the fact that it is used on a large number of pages, it has been semi-protected to prevent site-wide damage by vandal bots. Editors: In order to minimize the impact on our servers, please use sandboxes to make and test changes to widely used templates before deployment. For more information, please see this article's talk page.

Summary

This template displays an informative table about a given quest and should be applied at the top of all quests pages.

Parameters

Previously, some parameters were lower-case while others were mixed-case. These have all been switched to lower-case, although the mixed-case parameters will continue to work normally. For consistency, lower-case is preferred, since that's what's in use for most templates.
