The following is a list of useful templates to assist you while editing the Wiki and also helps to keep things neater. Templates are used by inserting {{ in front of a code and }} at the end of it.

Shadow Adds a shadow to text. {{Shadow|I am the Ultimate Lifeform}} I am the Ultimate Lifeform
! / !! Creates a pipe (|) or two (| |).

I doubt the average wiki editor would need these, but it's necessary if you're creating advanced templates using the if parser function. {{!}} has to be placed within those functions instead of regular pipes. I'm not sure why {{!!}} is needed, but including it here anyways.

{{!}}

{{!!}}

- Functions the same as <br style="clear:both;" />. "Clears" both margins. It is often used before a header to make sure that the header will be the full width of the page. {{-}} See the template page for examples.
H2, N (Custom Level 2/3 Headers)
  • H2 is used to create custom level 2 (== ==) and level 3 (=== ===) headers, mainly for the protagonist/antagonist pages who have multiple pages with tabs.

    Wikia/Mediawiki has problems with how it defines sections on those pages so the custom headers are necessary. N (as in None or Non-displayed) is also necessary to create the actual section on the page for each header. It hides the real header so that only the custom one is displayed under it.

    For custom icons, the part codes you can put are: PB, BT, SC, DU, VA, SO, SBR, JJL, OS

    N just needs the name for the header. H2 needs the former, and then the page title (so that the edit button works) and then an optional part icon. l=3 can be placed afterwards for making level 3 headers.
  • =={{N|Appearance}}==
{{H2|Appearance|Jonathan Joestar/Introduction|part=PB}}
    ==={{N|Childhood}}===
{{H2|Childhood|Jonathan Joestar/Introduction|l=3}}

    Result:

H4, H5
  • Creates <h4></h4> (==== ====), and <h5></h5> (===== =====) tags without an edit button beside them. Use these if using the custom headers above.
  • {{H4|All Star Battle}}
{{H5|Tournament}}

    Result:

    All Star Battle
    Tournament
Quote and Q
  • Creates quotations. 
    {{Quote|Yare Yare Daze|Jotaro Kujo}}
{{Q|Yare Yare Daze|Jotaro Kujo}}
    Result:
    “
    Yare Yare Daze
    ”
    —Jotaro Kujo
    “
    Yare Yare Daze
    ”
    —Jotaro Kujo
Scroll Box
