View source for Help:Useful Templates

The wiki has some useful things to cut out formats within the page. To use each templates, surround the template code with <code>{{ }}</code>, or use the Insert > Template function on the [[:MinecraftOnline:VisualEditor|Visual Editor]].

*This page does not cover through Infobox templates, or templates that works like infobox such as [[Template:Event]]. Refer to [[:Help:Getting Started]] instead.


=Errors=
==[[:Category:Stubs|Stub]]==
{{stub}}
Use this template when:
*The page is incomplete
*The page needs further information

Place <nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki> on top of the page or on a section that is incomplete. Wiki editors are recommended to fill in known information as much as possible.

==[[Template:Spelling|Spelling]]==
{{Spelling}}
Use this template when the article has poor grammar.

==Dubious==
A {{Dubious}} tag can be placed right next to a word or unknown fact without proper evidence. Such information should be double-checked.

==Unconfirmed==
An {{unconfirmed}} tag can be placed right next to a word or unknown fact which has no evidence and needs to be double-checked.

==POV==
{{POV}}
When an article or a section is filled with biased, single-person viewed information, it can be marked as articles by a single person’s POV (Point of View). Such sections should be rewritten to third-person viewed information or be deleted as a whole. In some cases those page may risk deletion for vandalism or irrelevance of the wiki.
*Single-person viewed writing is default in [[:Category:User|User pages]] or discussions in Talk pages, and as such, this template should not be used in there, even if another user has wrote some parts of the page.

==[[:Category:Pages in need of images|Image]]==
*Not to be confused with the [[Help:Uploading Files|image function]] that is MediaWiki’s default feature

Page with no image on infobox (specifically those with [[:File:image404.png|image404.png]]) has a message next to it. Wiki editors can provide necessary images for these pages.

{{Images}}
On other cases when an image is in poor quality and needs improvement, the <nowiki>{{Image}}</nowiki> template is used. Place better images in replacement (or update the original file).


=Page decoration=
==Main==
{{Main|Main Page}}
Use this to note readers that a separate article has the information.

==See==
{{see|Main Page}}
Use this to note readers that a separate article has more information than in the page.

==[[Template:Map|Map]]==
{{map|0}}

A useful template to display an ingame map without uploading files to the wiki. Map data is directly fetched from the server.

==[[Template:Maplink|Maplink]]==
This template functions the same as the one in the infobox building/settlement. Fill in the required information and it will generate a [[map]] link.

==[[Template:User|User]]==
{{user|rhyzofan}}

To create a link to this page’s creator, use <nowiki>{{user|rhyzofan}}</nowiki>. Either the player name or UUID will work.

===[[Template:AliasedUser|AlisedUser]]===
{{AliasedUser|rhyzofan|Rhyzo}}

You can also have a different display name with the same type of template.

==[[Template:Togglebox|Togglebox]]==
A fancy way of making header and body text.


=Page type=
==[[:Category:External|External]]==
Contents that were available outside of [[Freedonia]] are external content and has <nowiki>{{External}}</nowiki> on top of the page. Such location will not be marked on the [[map]].

==[[:Category:External|Legacy]]==
Contents that previously existed in Freedonia but is removed are legacy contents and have <nowiki>{{Legacy}}</nowiki> on top of the page. Such location will not be marked on the map. Not all legacy locations are wiped off from the wiki to preserve history.

==[[:Category:Articles For Deletion|AFD]]==
If by any reason the page or file are no longer in use or considered unworthy on the wiki, those can be flagged as AFD. Wiki admins will check for such pages regularly.

To use this, replace the whole page with <nowiki>{{AFD}}</nowiki>. To add a reason on it, use <nowiki>{{AFD|optional reason}}</nowiki>.


=Miscellaneous=
==[[Template:Ambox|Custom Ambox]]==
If you are a skilled coder, the custom ambox is a way to make your own tiny or large box to place. This is the source of all the tiny boxes.

==[[Template:Roundy|Roundy]]==
Make the corner of the table round. Depending on how many corners to make round, the template to use changes.

==[[Template:Template|Template]]==
{{template|Template}}

Create a link to target template page with a template. Template with template, not confusing at all.

==Yes and No==
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Breaking [[Bedrock]]
|-
! Creative Mode? !! Survival Mode
|-
| {{Yes}} || {{No}}
|}

<nowiki>{{Yes}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{No}}</nowiki> templates can be used in tables. No need to insert colour formats all the time.
