Template:Material categorization
From Guild Wars Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search
Purpose[edit]
This template is used to easily categorize articles into any fitting categories in Category:Contains common crafting material and Category:Contains rare crafting material.
Usage[edit]
This template is to be inserted into the templates {{Item infobox}} and {{Weapon infobox}}, it is not to be added directly to the article.
{{Material categorization|materials}}
Parameters[edit]
- unnamed parameter 1
- A text containing links to material pages. This can be as chaotic and free-form as some data entered on {{Item infobox}}, e.g. 4-5 [[Bolt of Cloth|Bolts of Cloth]]<br>4-5 [[Tanned Hide Square]]s
Due to ambiguity between Steel Ingot / Deldrimor Steel Ingot and Leather Square / Elonian Leather Square, a mere mention of the material is not enough, it needs to be linked.
Examples[edit]
These examples merely show links of the categories that would be found, the actual template categorises instead.
- {{Material categorization|[[Deldrimor Steel Ingot]]s<br />[[Elonian Leather square]]s}}
- {{Material categorization|[[Steel Ingot]]s<br />[[Leather square]]s}}
- {{Material categorization| }}
- Does not categorise.
Notes[edit]
- If no links are found in a material text, the page goes to Category:Material list without links for review.
- This template is a clutch, born out of necessity due to shortsighted implementations of {{Item infobox}} and others. Don't even think about adding something similar to GW2W, design proper templates from the get-go instead.
