[edit] Comments

could just use the discussion page for this, but as it's just a temp page this will do Ok, temp creation for now. I'm probably WAY off track for how to do this... but the idea is for it to used as an inclusion on pages for the description of items etc.

Could maybe use some more background formatting? Not sure. Feel free to modify it or provide suggestions. What I'm wanting though is to have it set similar to the {{Infobox Spell}} template.

When I have more time I'll work on this in more depth myself. But if someone else knows more on wiki coding .. feel free to hack away.

[edit] Test example

How is this for you? I have got my head around the template again and understand how Zido has created it now so modifying it further should be easy. Will have more of a play to see if I can fix the size of some of the rows when there is only one line of text.

It might be a good idea to have a few templates, one for items, one for weapons and one for armour. Just an idea. The way the template works it will miss any line that does not have a variable for it so it is possible to have one template do them all. It just might make it easier for users if there were simple templates to use.

In fact, if we do use separate templates, I wonder if we can include a category tag within the template for item/weapon/armour to have alphabetical lists created like Category:Spells? The less contributors need to add to a page themselves the easier everything will be.

This template is called Template:Infobox Item to keep the naming convention the same as what Zido started.

Yeah, seems fair enough. And nice work on getting it working, I'd spend more time on it myself but just a tad bit too much happening atm, should be good again in a few days. Then I'll finish that bloody mainpage =)
